Pavel is an idiot
Pavel is an idiot too stupid to stay put. Over and over, he was told to not move but he kept moving around putting everyone's lives in jeopardy. Beckett should have put a bullet in Pavel's leg when he refused to stay hidden behind the log during the firefight in the jungle.
He directly caused Cole's death at Simand but never acknowledged or apologized to the him before he died. Someone should have pushed him out the chopper at the end. He would have died a martyr and fueled the rebellion.
