The victims of the blitzkrieg. How to avoid the 1941 tragedy?: Yuri Mukhin

A new book from the author of the bestseller “Blitzkrieg: how is this done?” Continuation of the study of the most formidable strategy of the XX century. Rethinking the practice of “lightning -fast war.”
The phenomenal triumphs of the Nazi blitzkrings are explained not so much by the power of the aggressor as the weakness of the victims, the cowardice and meanness of their “elite”, degenerated into the “fifth column”. It was precisely due to the fault of his leadership that Pan Poland, who was almost not inferior to the Wehrmacht, who collapsed only after a couple of weeks of battles. It was precisely because of the betrayal and egregious unprofessionalism of the Soviet generals that the personnel Red Army was defeated in the border battle, and the enemy reached Moscow.
Why did the Stalin USSR not repeat the fate of Poland and France? Thanks to which the “lightning -fast war” against the Soviet Union was disrupted? And what lessons need to learn present -day Russia so as not to repeat the tragedy of 1941 and again not become a victim of the blitzkrieg?
