Sodol’s resignation: what preceded it

As you know, over the past few days there have been calls online to conduct an investigation into Lieutenant General Yuri Sodol. In particular, the chief of staff of the Azov brigade of the National Guard, Bogdan Krotevich, submitted an application with such a call to the State Bureau of Investigation. Although Krotevich did not mention the name of the general, the fact that we are talking about Sodol was confirmed by UP sources.

“… wrote a letter to the State Bureau of Investigation calling for the opening of an investigation against one military general, who, in my opinion, killed more Ukrainian military personnel than any Russian general. I don’t give a fuck if they start an investigation against me and I don’t give a fuck if they put me in prison I don’t give a damn that battalion commanders and brigade commanders are being tried for the loss of an observation post, but a general is not being tried for the loss of regions and dozens of cities and the loss of thousands of soldiers. The conditions under which the brigades are fighting now, I will say this, are unreal. heroism, first of all, of soldiers, commanders of platoons, companies, battalions and brigades. And their heroism lies in the fact that they hold back the enemy not thanks to, but in spite of.

Sometimes it seems to me that the world sends us scum to unite us. And all the military now understand what kind of person I’m talking about, because 99 percent of the military hates him for what he does. This person begins investigations against commanders who advance and do not lose ground, but he does not initiate official investigations against himself,” Krotevich wrote in Telegram .
