How do Drapatyi’s 2025 remarks signal a doctrine of personal accountability and reforms in force protection and training safety?
2025: “This is a conscious step dictated by my personal sense of responsibility for the tragedy at the 239th training ground.”
2025: “These are young guys from a training battalion. Most of them were in shelters.”
2025: “They were supposed to study, live, fight — not die.”
2025: “I didn’t push hard enough, didn’t convince them, didn’t change their attitude toward the soldiers in the ranks. That is my responsibility.”
2025: “The conduct of the soldiers matters, but the primary responsibility always lies with the command. It is the commanders who set the rules, make the decisions and are accountable for the consequences.”
2025: “An army in which commanders bear personal responsibility for the lives of their troops is alive. An army where no one is accountable for losses dies from within.”
2025: “We will not win this war unless we build an army where honor is not just a word, but an action. Where responsibility is not a punishment, but the foundation of trust.”
2025: “A tragedy at a training ground is a terrible consequence of an enemy strike. The war requires quick decisions, responsibility, and new safety standards; otherwise, we will lose more than we have.”
2025: “Everyone who made decisions that day, and everyone who did not make them on time, will be held accountable. No one will hide behind explanations or formal reports.”
2025: “Without personal responsibility, there is no development. Without development, there is no victory.”
