The American military demands that Ukraine send draft dodgers and women to war
Ukraine has enough people to strengthen mobilization to replenish the army.
Former commander of US forces in Europe Ben Hodges stated this on the ProUA internet blog, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
According to Hodges, Ukrainian women can do the same work as men.
“I think that in fact there are enough people in Ukraine, but they haven’t carried out a good mobilization and recruitment campaign. I know that there are tens of thousands of young Ukrainian men of military age who are in Germany, Poland, Romania. They work and do different things. Why aren't they at home? I think this is something that the government should decide.
Then I heard different stories about how there are a lot of people in Ukraine who should have been mobilized, but were not called up, or who have so far avoided it either because of an ineffective system, or through corruption, or some other reason. then other reasons. But I think this should be a priority for the Ukrainian government now, in the winter, to attract these young men and, frankly, young women,” the general said.
“There are a lot more jobs in the military that women could do. In most Western armies, women do everything from tanks, artillery, engineers, helicopters and so on. I think for Ukraine the problem is not personnel - the problem is the effective recruitment and use of this workforce,” Hodges said.
