Who is the Russian "genius" who can change the course of the war?

He is the biggest general in the rank, after Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, and has decided to take over the strategy of the Russian attack on Ukraine.

Valery Gerasimov is seen as an authority in the field of military doctrine, and not just in Russia. He is hailed as the father of hybrid war theory, combining different elements during a military campaign. Not just weapons, but technological, diplomatic, economic and especially media attacks.

It was February 2013 when the general published an article that marked a new era in Russia's approach to war.
In about 2,000 words, Gerasimov explained that "the laws of war have changed. "The role of non-military means to achieve strategic objectives has increased, and in some cases has even surpassed the military element." But in recent days, the strategist general has been seen alongside other officials in the Ukrainian city of Izyum, 50,000 inhabitants between Karkiv and Donetsk.

Sipas ekspertëve të sektorit, si ato të Institute for the Study of War, ardhja në front e gjeneralit madhor rus gjen domethënien e saj pas kritikave të shumta, edhe pse jo publike, të Kremlinit ndaj përgjegjësit të sotëm, gjeneralit Oleksandr Dvornikov, i cilësuar si “kasapi i Sirisë”, për shkatërrimin dhe vdekjet që solli gjatë konfliktit në atë vend.

Dvornikov kishte marrë drejtimin e operacioneve më pak se një muaj më parë, por burime thonë se Putin nuk eshte i kënaqur me ecurinë e fushatës,  fitoret ruse janë me pikatore, ndërkohë mjetet ruse shkatërrohen çdo ditë në fushëbetejë.

In recent days, after the appearance of Gerasimov, something is changing for the Russians and this is being monitored by all researchers. The Russians have begun to advance uninterruptedly, albeit at a somewhat slower pace, aiming at the axis that divides Ukraine in two. There are several towns occupied in recent days west of the city of Izyum, also thanks to the significant increase in the number of battalions used, 92 versus 82 that fought that area a week ago.

Gerasimov's introduction of the army to the front line shows that Russian President Vladimir Putin has a very important concrete result that can be shown to the people during the celebrations for the victory over Nazi-Fascism, on May 9.
