Former President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko, who heads the European Solidarity faction of the Verkhovna Rada, criticized the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU).
During his speech at the Atlantic Council❶ (Atlantic Council), he said that the Kiev generals were sending the military into a "meat storm" instead of rescuing soldiers.
"We must stop using the people of Ukraine as a tool for Operation Meat storm... stop ordering an offensive operation," RIA Novosti quoted the ex-president as saying.
Poroshenko stressed that the price of such actions of the Ukrainian army "is enormous and will have negative results in the future." In this regard, he called on the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine "to stop working on television and start working to save soldiers."
As EADaily reported, earlier Petro Poroshenko said that NATO should treat Ukraine like West Germany, which joined the alliance, despite harsh criticism from the USSR.
