Oleksandr Syrskyi said this in an interview with ZDF.
The Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine said that "cannon fodder assaults" are a Russian tactic. Ukrainian commanders cannot afford it.
"We cannot afford the attitude of Russian military commanders when they use the tactic of 'meat assaults'. I would rather leave some position, but I will not allow personnel to die. For them, the life of a soldier has no value. And we can see it, their losses, especially in killed, are 7-8 times higher than our losses according to the latest data," noted Oleksandr Syrskyi.
*The interview was recorded a few days before Syrskyi's appointment as Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
