2024-07-24 | ‘I know we will win – and how’: Ukraine’s top general on
turning the tables against Russia. Col Gen Oleksandr Syrskyi weighs
Ukraine’s recent setbacks, counter strikes and the changing face of
Europe’s biggest war since 1945 in an article in:
The Guardian – Wed 24 Jul 2024 by Luke Harding

Col Gen Oleksandr Syrskyi was tight-lipped about when Ukraine will
receive a long-awaited delivery of F-16 fighter jets.

Syrskyi is Ukraine’s new commander-in-chief. His unenviable task is to
defeat a bigger Russian army.

He acknowledges the Russians are much better resourced. They have more
of everything: tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, soldiers. Their
original 100,000-strong invasion force has grown to 520,000, he said,
with a goal by the end of 2024 of 690,000 men. The figures for Ukraine
have not been made public.

There is a ratio of 1:2 or 1:3 in their favour,” he said. Since 2022 the
number of Russian tanks has “doubled” – from 1,700 to 3,500. Artillery
systems have tripled, and armoured personnel carriers gone up from 4,500
to 8,900.

Since last autumn Ukraine’s armed forces have been going steadily
backwards. One of his first acts when he got the job in February 2024 –
replacing Valerii Zaluzhnyi, now Ukraine’s ambassador to the UK – was to
order the withdrawal of his troops from the eastern city of Avdiivka.
The retreat coincided with a six-month gap in the US supply of weapons.
