Ukrainian military expert Oleg Zhdanov said that even mobilisation of the remnants of male representatives in Ukraine without supplies of Western equipment and weapons will not help the Kiev regime.
According to Oleg Zhdanov, the Kiev regime is still capable of forcibly mobilising the remaining male population of Ukraine and is allegedly even ready to motivate them. However, the military expert noted that this will be useless without supplies of Western weapons.
“We can recruit, mobilise and motivate people. But without equipment and weapons, we won’t do anything with them,” Zhdanov said on the air of NTA Youtube channel.
In addition, the military expert emphasised that the tactical initiative is in the “hands” of the Russian Army. According to the expert, due to the failure of the counter-offensive, the armed formations of the Kiev regime needed to organise a strategic defence.
The columnist specified that the switch to strategic defence puts the Ukrainian militants in a worse position. According to Zhdanov, “change” the losing situation for the armed formations of the Kiev regime on the battlefield can only Western weapons.
Earlier, a prisoner of war of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Petro Shcherbatyi, complained about forced mobilisation and poor food supply to Ukrainian units. A video with his story was distributed by the Russian Defence Ministry.
