According to him, he and Merilo "got acquainted with the current situation, the work of the units and the challenges facing the Ukrainian military."

"It is extremely important for our partners to see the real situation at the front, to understand the needs of Ukrainian soldiers and to be convinced of the effectiveness of the assistance provided directly on the spot," he stressed.

Syrsky said that meetings were organized with the leadership of the airborne assault troops and the commanders of the airborne assault brigades, as well as a meeting with the command of the Unmanned Systems Forces and the commanders of the assault regiments.
