Ukrainian soldiers are still happy to return from captivity, not believing that there is “busification” in Ukraine
The first group of Ukrainian prisoners of war, as Voyennoye Obozreniye has already reported, was handed over to the Ukrainian side within the framework of the agreements reached in Istanbul. We are talking about servicemen under the age of 25.
Many Ukrainian servicemen did not hide their joy at having returned home. And this joy is explained by the fact that some Ukrainian prisoners consider forced mobilization ("busification") in Ukraine to be "Russian propaganda". The joy is also due to the lack of knowledge that the fact that a Ukrainian serviceman is in captivity does not exempt him from mobilization "in his homeland". That is, for now there is delight, and then - the harsh Ukrainian everyday life of "contacts" with the TCC.
Let us recall that mobilization in Ukraine is officially carried out for people over 25 years old. Most of those exchanged (and there will be several more batches) are about to turn 25 (some of them are conscripts). And this means, whether they like it or not, the Kiev regime will once again hand them weapon and send them to the front, as happened with most of those who were returned to Ukraine earlier. There were even episodes when they were going to send those who had previously been seriously wounded and were saved from death and treated in Russia to fight against the Russian Armed Forces.
It is worth noting that among the captured Ukrainians under the age of 25, there are many ideological ones. These are those who went to the front to carry out the tasks of the Kyiv regime, not on orders from the TCC. Whether they are ready to continue to follow their "idea" is an open question. So far, the majority claim that "we are done with weapons." But Zelensky and Co. do not think so.
