Quote: “These are some kind of attack battalions, modelled on the White Guard units of the 1920s. The main criteria for officers in assault units are the inability to command subordinates, personal indiscipline and poor motivation.”
Details: Kovalov noted that Teplinsky himself does not have much authority among the Russian army.
Quote: “In general, General Teplinsky, who currently holds the position of commander of the Dnepr Russian occupation grouping of troops, does not have much authority among the servicemen of the Russian Armed Forces. In particular, his subordinates say that he does not care about the lives of his personnel. A rather mundane and prosaic situation for Russian commanders.”
