Ukraine's Battle for Innovation and Resilience Against Russia
Ukraine's army chief, General Valery Zaluzhnyi, warns that the war with Russia is entering a static and attritional phase, which could allow Russia to rebuild its military power and threaten Ukraine's armed forces and state. He emphasizes the need for key military capabilities and technological innovation to break out of this phase, including air power to counter Russia's advantage, better mine-breaching technology, and the building up of reserve forces. Zaluzhnyi also highlights the challenges of training and mobilization, but mentions efforts to address these issues through the introduction of a unified register of draftees and a "combat internship" program.
