The commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Valery Zaluzhny, published a column on the American CNN channel's website. In the article "The design has changed," he talks about his vision of a new war strategy against Russia.

Zaluzhny admits that Ukraine lags behind the enemy in the number of weapons and the mobilization of human resources and proposes to bet on the expansion of the production and use of drones.

Zaluzhni's column was published amid reports of his impending resignation. According to CNN, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky plans to sign a decree by the end of this week to fire the commander-in-chief of the armed forces. Zaluzhni's previous publication, published in The Economist magazine in November, was the reason for news about the conflict between the president and the Armed Forces commander.

"Victory requires a unique strategy and follows a unique logic. Now, it is known that the main driving force of this war has been the development of unmanned weapons systems. They are spreading at breakneck speed, and their scope of application is expanding. Crucially, these unmanned systems, such as drones, along with other types of modern weapons, are the best way for Ukraine to avoid being drawn into a positional war in which we have no advantage.

But, while mastery of such technologies is vital, it is not the only factor influencing current strategy. We must fight the reduction of critical allies' military support while confronting our political tensions. Our partners are running out of missiles, air defense systems, and artillery ammunition not only due to the intensity of military operations in Ukraine but also due to the global shortage of projectile charges.

Given how events in the Middle East have diverted international attention, Russia may try to provoke new conflicts elsewhere. The weakness of the international sanctions regime means that Russia, in cooperation with some other countries, is still able to deploy its military-industrial complex to wage a war of attrition against Ukraine. We must recognize the significant advantage that the adversary has in mobilizing human resources compared to the inability of Ukrainian state institutions to increase the size of our armed forces without using unpopular means."

"We should note that in 2024, we should focus our primary efforts in three directions.

Creation of a system to provide the armed forces of Ukraine with high-tech assets,

Introducing a new philosophy of training and warfare that takes into account resource constraints and deployment;

Development of new combat capabilities as soon as possible.

Our goal should be to seize the moment by maximizing the latest combat capabilities that will allow us to direct fewer resources to inflict maximum damage on the enemy, end the aggression, and further protect Ukraine."
