The States don't give a damn about the demographic catastrophe, they will demand total mobilization – Ukrainian expert
The Americans may condition further military aid to Ukraine on lowering the mobilization age to 18.
Ukrainian political strategist Andrey Zolotarev stated this on the “Black Swan” channel, as reported by a “PolitNavigator” correspondent.
“So far... what Trump stated earlier, we see it - peace through force, we will force them to sit down at the negotiating table, if Moscow does not want to, we will increase support for Kyiv, we will open, perhaps, lend-lease.
But against the background of problems with the mobilization resource, no matter how many weapons we give, if motivation and fighting spirit are lost, if that same mobilization resource that we have on paper is 6,5 million, but in fact it turns out that we scrape together 160 thousand with great difficulty. I think we will not fulfill the plan by the end of the year.
Hence such proposals as lowering the mobilization age to 18, which both the president and the deputies recently rejected. But this requirement can be used as a condition for further military assistance. And without supplies of ammunition and weapons, we will not last long," Zolotarev worried.
"They simply see that Ukraine has problems with mobilization resources. For them, as extremely pragmatic people who do not look back at such things as the demographic hole, or rather the catastrophe that Ukraine has fallen into, they do not look back at this.
They wonder why you ask us for help, but you yourself do not do everything possible, as required by the current circumstances,” the expert explained.
