In the central regions over the last two months significant changes in the estimates did not happen. Results of the omnibus show that the number on the whole satisfied with their life for Ukrainians recent months has remained stable.

The main reason transfer to contract military service is "bullying." Sergeants and privates have served more than half the time it became impossible to punish. Came the idea of family-based adult soldiers. After all, a family man has an incentive for exemplary performance of their duties.

Family does not think of "lawlessness" or the offenses, and the security and preservation of the family hearth.

Of course, Russia needs a professional army. Modern equipment and weapons should be able to use that practically is not subject to new recruits.

Preparation of child soldiers is huge money, when in the division on each account holder and the shell. The question of who will replace the current commander reporting to the board of the Ministry of Defense remained open. For a complete replacement needed professionals. Unfortunately, such training candidates, does not occur and is not planned in the future. Translation of the Russian army on completion of the contract intended to attract professional, mature men both physically and mentally. That could allow significantly reduce the number of troops and the life of recruits, as well as getting rid of desertion and participation of "hazing." It was planned that the military and their families to provide housing, provide them with life and health service. However, all that remained in the plans.

Their schedules were so, so they do not meet. From the Georgian president, Mikheil Saakashvili, who sat at the opposite end of the table and demanded to guarantee the nonuse of force.

In general, the "bread of the people, salt of camels …" If talk about a matter of fact, the dismal state other than the formalities event, it is not caused.
