The new Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksandr Syrskyi announced new tasks for the Ukrainian army.
First, Sirsky emphasized the need for clear and detailed planning of the actions of all military units, taking into account the needs of the front in the latest weapons that come from international partners.
In military logistics, the main issue is the fastest and most rational distribution and delivery of everything necessary for combat units.
Syrskyi stressed that the headquarters of all levels should know the needs of the front and master the situation in each of its areas.
He added that the life and health of Ukrainian defenders is the main value of the Armed Forces, and therefore the necessary balance between the execution of combat missions and the restoration of units remains more relevant than ever.
Another task is the introduction of new technical solutions and the scaling of successful experience, such as, for example, the use of unmanned systems, modern means of radio-electronic warfare.
Yesterday, president Zelensky appointed General Syrskyi the commander-in-chief of the armed forces.
In my previous column, I wrote about social innovations in Ukraine.

In 2025, the deadliest year yet for civilians, Ukraine’s three largest charitable foundations raised a record 105.9 billion hryvnias. It is more than the years 2022–2024 combined. According to the UN, humanitarian aid in Ukraine was delivered by more than 450 organisations, reaching five million people over the course of the year. Civic foundations hold licences to purchase lethal weapons, which is a function states have monopolised for centuries. These record sums were underwritten by international government grants, which means foreign states now channel billions directly through Ukrainian civic funds, bypassing inter-state channels. It is hard to imagine a stronger institutional trust in civil society.
