“Territorial defense is subordinated to a clear military vertical and not a single governor will have his own pocket armed forces,” the President of Ukraine said during a meeting with the commanders of brigades and battalions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The President emphasized that territorial defense units and battalions must be part of the structural vertical of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and subordinate to them.
As PolitNavigator previously reported, Interior Minister Arsen Avakov gave XNUMX hours to disarm armed fighters near Ukrnafta, whose appearance oligarch Igor Kolomoisky explained as preparations to repel a raider takeover.
