In order to address its troop shortage, Kiev reportedly needs to recruit at least 50,000 people every quarter
BERLIN, July 1. /TASS/. Kiev needs to call up about 200,000 people into the army to address troop shortages, Germany’s Die Welt newspaper writes.
According to the paper, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian servicemen have been killed or wounded since February 2022; however, Die Welt does not provide the exact number. In order to address its troop shortage, Kiev needs to recruit at least 50,000 people every quarter. The newspaper’s sources in Western intelligence agencies point out that Ukraine has been failing to achieve this goal.
According to an official from the Ukrainian Justice Ministry, the country’s authorities believe that the law that was adopted in May allowing them to send about 2,800 convicts to the combat zone in the past two months will help solve the problem. However, experts cited by Die Welt say that this won’t be nearly enough men, putting the number needed at more than 200,000 people.
I know where they can grab up a bunch of Spanish speaking young men……
I believe that statement will be used to cover nato troops being deployed.
Can we helicopter Lindsey Graham, Gen. Milley, Victoria Nuland and Lloyd Austin into UKR?
That should send the Russians running!
FYI… Ukraine is losing on average 1,000 sacks of meat (meaning soldiers) each and every day of this war--killed or wounded. That’s an average of 30,000 per month, KIA, wounded, captured, surrendered (now in the hundreds every month BTW). This is unsustainable by any measure or reality, yet this zipperhead-second-rate-TV-comedian (Zelensky) keeps this war going and going… even so far as to pressure his generals and officers to make pointless meat-attacks and counter-offensives that get nowhere.
This is the issue that matters most. Russia has more cannon fodder to sacrifice than Ukraine. Eventually they win because of that.
They are welcome to many of our illegals coming through the borders! they are of military age & strength!
