provocations by the enemy, presence of hazing, logistical issues and
social conditions.

visited the observation point taking the necessary precautions:
wearing helmets and bulletproof vests.
Chairman of the committee Anatoly Vyborny shared his impressions with
reporters, noting that as a military man he saw the combat readiness
of the unit.
"For me it was important to look into the eyes of soldiers, to see
the behavior of the officers. I am pleasantly surprised that the
soldiers and officers adequately carry the burden of military service,"
Vyborny said.
He noted that it is obvious there is no hazing in the unit, as "those
who really want to serve their motherland are coming here."
