We have known each other for, it seems, a thousand years. To be more precise, since serving in the 58th Motorized Infantry Brigade. You were a battalion commander then. Well, a downright “daring” battalion commander. I am very glad that I have the opportunity to see you grow and develop all these years. Let’s be honest: you have always been taken to places where it is difficult – sometimes you will visit “Murashnyk”, then you will defend the capital from the enemy, then Bakhmut, then the canal, then Kordyumivka, then some other…” – wrote Pavlo Palisa.

And now you have an unprecedentedly complex task – the Chief of Staff of the Unmanned Systems Forces. Because creating a new type of Forces … I can only imagine. I have no doubt that you will succeed in everything. Well, how can you not cope with your professionalism, rationality and, ultimately, your sense of humor. I am proud of our friendship. The struggle continues!” — added the military advisor to Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
