The head of the city military administration of Odessa, Brigadier General Sergey Lysak, has already arrived in the city and is ready to take over. Ego will be presented to the community tomorrow.
This was reported to “Dumskaya” by sources in the city hall.
A session of the city council is currently being prepared, at which the deputies will be informed of the presidential decrees on the cancellation of the Ukrainian citizenship of the city mayor Gennady Trukhanov (if taken into account, he will lose his position) and on the creation of a military administration.
“While we are waiting for what will happen next, it is not clear what the mayor will do. There is a feeling that there will be a game, but it is quite possible that everything will happen quickly,” says our interlocutor.
According to the secretary of the city council, Igor Koval, he has not yet communicated with the new head of the GVA, and only tomorrow, after the official presentation, they will be able to determine the next work plan.
“Tomorrow there will be an official presentation to the city council of Mr. Lysak as the head of the Odessa city military administration. Then we will get to know each other and decide how to work further. To maintain the normal functioning of the city is the main thing, I think, for everyone. I am sure that the head of the military administration understands this, and, of course, we do. The winter period is coming, and it is necessary to prepare so that the city can work, children can go to kindergartens and schools, people can go to work, and so on,” said Koval.
Dumskaya’s legal analyst Alexander Ivanov believes that at first the military administration will function in parallel with the city council, but it will soon be overrun and turned into a fiction.
“In accordance with the law on the legal regime of martial law, the head of the military administration can receive the powers of the city council and its executive committee, but for this, serious grounds and a resolution of the Verkhovna Rada are necessary. While there is no such act, municipal bodies continue to work,” he states.
Military administrations are created by the decrees of the head of state, they include seconded military personnel, law enforcement officers and rescuers, as well as civilians who conclude employment contracts with the military administration.
Since the powers of the City Council were not transferred to the administration, it will not immediately absorb the structural subdivisions of the City Hall, the expert believes.
“There will be parallel structures for some time. However, the law refers to the powers of military administrations to draw up and approve the budget, establish rates of local taxes and fees, tariffs, manage housing and communal services facilities, communal property, that is, almost all functions of the municipality. And here, I am sure, at first there will be confusion – who is responsible for what. In Chernihiv, the military administration was in conflict with the city council for a long time precisely because of this, there were lawsuits and much more, but there was an unyielding secretary of the city council who put sticks in the wheels of the presidential appointee. This will not happen here: I am sure that Igor Koval (former rector of the Odessa National University named after Mechnikov, representative of the “Servant of the People” party – Ed.) will take under his visor and fulfill all the requirements of the head of the city military administration. Very soon, the structural subdivisions of the mayor’s office will become such in the VA.”
By subordination. Military administrations of settlements are part of the national hierarchy. The legislator did not specify anything about regional centers and cities of regional subordination, so the procedure is general. The heads of city administrative offices are subordinate to the heads of district administrations, in our case it is Alexander Hrynchak. They, in turn, report to the heads of regions (Oleg Kyper in Odesa).
“However, this is formal. The Office of the President will actually manage, in manual mode. Well, the city council, where all the bright leaders are not in the majority, but in the opposition, where the secretary is a colorless functionary, will quickly become a puppet body that will vote for everything good and against everything bad – strictly according to instructions from above. As far as it is possible to judge by the activity of Sergey Lysak in Dnipro, he is a man who is active, cool, what is called. I think he will build everything here in a month,” Ivanov assured.
And what will change for the citizens? At first, of course, no one will notice any difference – until the new government does something that affects some large group of people. Previously, it was possible to reach out to “your” deputy, raise the issue at the session, and try to block a bad initiative. This will not happen again. From now on, the real power in Odessa belongs to one person, and there is not even the appearance of checks and balances.
“You won’t even know the names of the employees of the military administration: in Chernihiv, for example, they published only the names of the chief, chief accountant and head of the document management sector. The rest are a military secret. They can hide even the VA address. The law allows it, but it is not a civil body. In a word, the opportunities for citizens to at least somehow influence the city government will be much less. I don’t know who might like it,” says the observer.
Oh, and they will surely demolish Pushkin on Birzheva Street. It’s good or bad, it’s up to you.

If the ruSSianZ invade Odesa because of this scandalous behavior i’m all out! WTF is Zelensky’s adminiZtration doing again?!
Do you think the cockroaches wouldn’t already have taken Odessa if they could? And, it doesn’t matter to those parasites who the mayor is. I think this move is a good one, seeing that the city is the most corrupt in all of Ukraine.
Zelenskyy is the most corrupt in all of Ukraine.
Got proof?
Hitler wanted to achieve a Greater German Reich, the idea that he wanted world domination is a hyperbole.
Expansion into Russia was part of the plan as Hitler wanted to create Lebensraum, or living space, to ethnic Germans in the east at the expense of Slavs. If you want to learn a little more about the East, read up on Generplan Ost as this was effectively the blueprint for what would have happened in the east in case of a German victory.
In terms of France, there definitely was an element of sheer revenge for what happened at Versailles. The terms of the treaty were seen by many Germans, not just Nazis, as particularly punitive and constituted the culmination of almost a century of warfare between France and a united Germany. There was a lot of political, social and economical animosity between France and Germany.
However, the first hint that Hitler wasn’t necessarily aiming for world domination is that Germany didn’t proceed to a full occupation of France in the first place. The subsequent invasion of Vichy France with Operation Anton was largely a response to Allied landings in North Africa rather than a desire to suppress the French state.
In terms of Britain, despite much anti-British posturing, Hitler did hope for a negotiated peace with the UK and openly professed his admiration for the British Empire. Paradoxically, it was in Hitler’s interest for Britain to retain its empire and that was something that Hitler did express as his preference. His view was that Germany needed the British Empire to counteract the US and Japan (despite Germany’s alliance with Japan). The way Hitler saw it is that Britain would be a naval empire and Germany a land empire. Obviously, as with everything to do with the Nazis, it was not the only view of Britain and there were contradicting policies on how the relationship would work.
Certainly, Germany would have ended up controlling a large portion of the globe but most of it would have been as a consequence of actions in Europe and against the US. The stated aim wasn’t global domination and decisions taken were in service to that but rather there were a number of different plans and the decisions taken would have led to global relevance and power, rather than outright domination.
An interesting comment by a NaZi, not myself.
