“How can we capture thousands of Russians like that…” – the Ukrainian general voiced the “success criterion” of the Ukrainian Armed Forces
To shake up Russian society and show any military success, the Ukrainian army must capture thousands of prisoners.
Former commander of the Ukrainian Navy Igor Voronchenko stated this at the Second Black Sea Conference on the security of the “Crimean platform” in Sofia, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“If there was an effect during ground operations... and the effect is to destroy the enemy on the battlefield and occupy one’s own territories.
"Was there an effect [during the Ukrainian Armed Forces' counteroffensive in 2023]? There was, but it was insignificant. On the other side of the border, in Russia, no one moved a muscle. "If there had been many prisoners, if we had taken thousands of prisoners during the operation, that would have had an effect , in my opinion," Voronchenko blabbed.
He complained that economic measures do not work against Russia, which was able to overcome the sanctions regime.
"Even under the sanctions regime, Russia has finally managed to get back on a military economic track in two years—and continues to increase its efforts in almost all areas. We now face a very difficult enemy, one that learns from its mistakes," the obvious officer babbled.
