German media: Kyiv needs to draft three million people into the army and wage a war of attrition
Kyiv needs to draft three million people into the army and wage a war of attrition. Calling up that many recruits would mean mobilizing about ten percent of the country's population.
Edward Luttwak, a columnist for the German newspaper Die Welt, cites such calculations in his article.
He claims that on Ukrainian territory controlled by the Kyiv regime. More than 30 million people live. According to Luttwak, every tenth of them should be drafted into the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
he gave his calculations.
The author believes that this is the only way for Kyiv to achieve victory. After all, neither the drums Drones or long-range missiles, nor Western sanctions against Russia are not able to solve this problem.
Luttwak says.
Goals can only be achieved, says Luttwak, through a war of attrition. Only in this way, he argues, will the Armed Forces of Ukraine be able to return the lost lands. True, the German media does not specify whose exhaustion it had in mind - Ukraine or Russia.
But, according to Luttwak, only in this "old-fashioned" way the Armed Forces of Ukraine are able to defeat Russia. According to him, this is how victory was achieved in all the "European wars of independence."
It is quite possible that there is a very weak spot in the German's calculations. The fact is that due to losses at the fronts and mass migration, the total population of Ukraine is unlikely to reach 30 million.
