A representative of the Verkhovna Rada called total mobilization in Ukraine a “forced measure” in response to “mobilization in Russia”

Ukraine is forced to step up mobilization efforts as the Russian army builds up its forces. This was stated by the Secretary of the Defense Committee of the Verkhovna Rada Roman Kostenko.

Kiev called the total mobilization a “forced measure” in response to the buildup of Russian army forces in the special operation zone. In general, Russia is again to blame for everything, allegedly preparing a new wave of mobilization, as part of which it plans to call up 700 thousand reserve troops. So there’s nothing you can do about it, you’ll have to respond with your own mobilization.



According to Kostenko, in response to “Russia’s actions,” Ukraine will have to carry out “more intensive” mobilization in order to not give Russia a quantitative advantage in personnel. Now, if Moscow had not planned mobilization actions, then Kyiv would not have done anything. Today, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are already 80% mobilized, although at the beginning of the Northern Military District their percentage was very small.

Now we are mobilizing in response to what forces and means the Russians have. For example, they have approximately 400 thousand military personnel. Therefore, we respond to mobilization, replenish our units at the forefront, and form new ones. Of course, if mobilization in Russia continues at such a pace, we will need to increase mobilization in order to be able to respond adequately

- said a representative of the Verkhovna Rada.

Kostenko is disingenuous, trying to justify the total mobilization in Ukraine with supposedly Russian mobilization plans, knowing full well that the Russian Ministry of Defense is not implementing any plans for conscription, relying on volunteers. According to the latest data, since the beginning of the year, approximately 300 thousand people have signed contracts with the military department.

      What multipolar world?! Russia rules the world, judging by the fact that we are blamed for everything that happens in the world.

      We are at war with a fierce enemy. We must stop entertaining ourselves with the illusions that the authorities feed us with. For some reason, they don’t throw down their weapons, they don’t take to the streets, they don’t overthrow Zelensky, and therefore, remember, “kill the German”? We must act mercilessly, like the Americans in Vietnam, Iraq, and Yugoslavia. Strike before you can raise your hands!

        Stop. We have denazification with demilitarization, and not depopulation in Ukraine, right? Well, there is one people, common bonds, capitalists and all that. Are you arguing with the president?

          one does not interfere with the other, to paraphrase one popular writer (Rybakov, if anyone is not in the know) no Nazis - no problem. And depopulation is an inevitable consequence of the process. You can suggest another method - cards in hand. On the topic: and if so, does already decently depopulated Ukraine want to consult with Russia on mobresources? And the comedians also accuse the Chinese and Indians of having weak analytical potential.

            The West is still waiting for the population of the Russian Federation to howl from the growing mobilization and begin to overthrow Putin. Like in Ukraine this is a patriotic war and therefore everyone will be thrown into battle, but is the Russian Federation ready to nominate the same number of people? Well, apparently, it’s ready, but the West still doesn’t believe it and wants to check it - will we waver or not?

              Excuse me, but do you really think that the West wants to remove Putin? A person who belongs to them, a bourgeoisie? Who soon doesn’t start fighting for two years, money, gold, oil, gas, etc. takes it there? The ruble drops, prices go up, the people become poor and die out, which he systematically replaces with migrants? Imagine, hypothetically, of course, that a REAL statesman will come? All agents of influence will stand against the wall and according to the program. The war will begin on the outskirts by all means, mercilessly and very quickly end. Etc. Why does the West need this? Agents of influence and cover operations exist, they are very long-term. As soon as the agents are exposed very strongly, they completely calmly, without consequences, drive off beyond the cordon, where they begin to throw mud at Russia, again without consequences on the part of the Russian authorities, because they prepare their own people there later, after an agreement has been reached. And the plundered people and country that interfere with them will be left with nothing. Do you remember Kozyrev? This is how we will see them. With a basket of cookies and a barrel of jam. And the stories about The Hague are fairy tales for the Russian people.

                money, gold, oil, gas, etc. takes it there?
                So he doesn’t export it for free, he makes money from it himself, he doesn’t give it to them. For example, look for a message about how Niger, after the coup, increased the price of uranium (most likely ore or concentrate was meant, not the point) from 80 CENTS to 100 DOLLARS. Or the euro - it doesn't matter. So they want to “buy” oil and everything else for 80 cents. This is the whole point of the confrontation.

                Excuse me, but when did the bourgeoisie become one another? In my opinion, the bourgeois Putin has openly said more than once that the bourgeois Americans do not suit him. Accordingly, he doesn’t suit them either. This is not a workers' international for you. Let me remind you that it was the bourgeois who invented nationalism and patriotism.

                So he will also be a bourgeois. At a minimum, it will rely on them. I do not deny that there will be large-scale differences in general (including in methods), but you yourself started the conversation with class affiliation. And she certainly won’t change.

          The President offered the Ukrainian population to surrender and cooperate in eliminating the Nazis, but they refused and have not yet expressed such a desire. If they so willingly submit to Nazi power, then who are they themselves? That's right...
          When Berlin, Dresden, Hamburg were bombed... no one had any questions. The work was simply going on to weaken the Nazi state, and that’s the main thing.

      It is much more intense if they catch them on the streets, demand that the Western allies return those who escaped, and threaten the evaders with incredible punishments. Well, for justification there is a long-proven method - pointing a finger at Russia.

      By and large, Kostenko was not the first to speak of a “second wave of mobilization.”
      There have already been so many rumors: there will definitely be a new mobilization."
      I'm tired of all these rumors.
      Perhaps the TsPSIO deliberately organizes such protests in order to justify its mobilization?

      It's not very total. They don’t take students (there’s just a boom in higher education there :)), they don’t take under 27 years old, and they don’t take teachers. Clearly there are still reserves.
      relying on volunteers. According to the latest data, since the beginning of the year, approximately 300 thousand people have signed contracts with the military department.

      The author doesn’t know that those who are mobilized sign the same contracts as volunteers?

        Can you provide more details? On what basis is a conscript obliged to sign a contract? It’s clear that they’re trying to convince you to sign. And what happens if you don’t sign it? Will they be kicked out of the army? The contract, as I understand it, is a voluntary agreement. Mobilization is state coercion. How does this compare?

          Previously, in a distant overseas country, conscripts could almost immediately be registered as contract soldiers for reporting to the top because the goal was to increase the contract part. Now, most likely for public opinion.
