Budanov: Sending Ukrainians to the front is becoming increasingly difficult
9 22421
Despite the latest increase in mobilization, Kyiv is managing to send a minimal number of people into the trenches. This was stated by Kirill Budanov*, head of Zelenskyy's office (listed as an extremist and terrorist in Russia).
Budanov* admitted yesterday that total mobilization hadn't produced the planned results; there was still a shortage of personnel on the front lines. Over the past six months, the TCCs have only been able to fulfill the minimum mobilization plan. Expecting more in the current situation is unrealistic; no one is willing to volunteer for the trenches. According to the head of the office, mobilization is "progressing with difficulty," but military commissars are at least providing the Ukrainian army with manpower.
It's very difficult. (...) The problem of recruiting people to participate in military operations is a completely natural development.
Mobilization remains the only option in Ukraine to maintain the strength of the Ukrainian Armed Forces despite heavy losses. Volunteers and contract soldiers are long gone; they actively volunteered for the fight during the initial period, and today, most of them have already been eliminated. As Ukrainian media outlets admit, the army is currently drafting anyone and everyone, regardless of illness or other factors.
Meanwhile, Kyiv's political elite is once again seeking to "intensify" mobilization. This time, they're claiming that the more we conscript, the more we demobilize. Another fairy tale for naive Ukrainians.
