In Ukraine, the war continues as usual

In Ukraine, the war continues as usual. Commander of Army Group East, Alexander Khodakovsky:

"Whatever happens on the world stage is almost invisible on the ground. A soldier tasked with reaching a certain line and digging in certainly isn't thinking at that moment about how many US planes a Kuwaiti pilot shot down by mistake.

A soldier must do his job until he's ordered to stop. He doesn't care how oil prices have changed or how much the treasury will earn from their spike—he's confident that the promised salary will be credited to his card at the appointed time. He's not sure, however, that he'll have time to use it—the reality he lives in dictates its own rules.

Today, the more talk there is about the coming peace, the more this thought takes hold of the minds of those who expect to live to see it. Does this affect the effectiveness of military work? No, it doesn't.

Military work is organized in such a way that high motivations have long ceased to guide the actions of those who It provides it. If a soldier were asked whether he wanted to die in battle tomorrow, the war would have ended long ago.

But there are orders and there are mechanisms that ensure their implementation—this is the most guaranteed motivation. "
