The Iron General. Lessons of humanity w.ukraińska - Liudmyla Dolgonovska [KSIĄŻKA]

On February 24, 2022, Valeriy Zaluzhnyi, while giving orders, said the words that have become a symbol of Ukrainian resistance: This country rests on our shoulders. An iron general, a legendary figure, Hero of Ukraine, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (2021-2024), a military leader who will be remembered by history as the man who broke the plan of the Russian blitzkrieg and debunked the myth of the invincibility of the Russian army, one of the 100 most influential people of 2022 according to Time magazine. What is he really like? What is the story of the formation of the great military leader, known to the public as iron-fisted, and to his family as sincere, modest, demanding, and caring at the same time? Lyudmyla Dolhonovska's book will allow us to look behind the scenes of fateful events and hear the voices of those who stood side by side with Valeriy Zaluzhny. As an eyewitness and strategic communications adviser to the Commander-in-Chief, the author tells us who supported the general and what gave him the inspiration to not just do his job, but to actually lead and personify the legendary Ukrainian army, every soldier who holds the line and fights valiantly for Ukraine's opportunity to exist.
