The Armed Forces is gaining momentum: Volles called Zelensky more actively to send young people to the war

The exchamber of the UK Ministry of Defense noted that the average age of the Ukrainian army is 40 years, and in order to prevent a decrease in the pace of counter -offensive, Kiev needs to review the scale of mobilization. Former Defense Minister Ben Volles called the Ukrainian authorities to actively mobilize young people to prevent a decline in the pace of counter -offensive. According to him, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky should "look at the scale of Ukrainian mobilization".

On October 1, the excendant wrote in the comments of The Telegraph. Volles believes that the counter -offensive of the Armed Forces goes slowly but successfully, and Ukrainian troops "gain momentum, learn lessons and use the technique" that was provided by Western allies. The ex -Russian army "cracks at the seams", so the Ukrainian partners have a chance to complete the case and bring to the victorious end of the war, providing the necessary support to the Ukrainian army.

However, the Armed Forces of Ukraine in turn requires a mobilization resource, since Russian leader Vladimir Putin "in a hidden mode" is mobilizing in the Russian Federation. "The average age of Ukrainian soldiers at the front is over 40 years. I understand Zelensky's desire to keep young people for the future, but it is time to review the scale of Ukrainian mobilization," Wolles said.

In conclusion, he added that now the whole world is watching whether the West has determined to defend the value and a system based on the rules. "What we will do now for Ukraine will set the direction of all our safety for the years ahead," Volles summed up. Earlier it was reported that the mobilization of men who do not have the experience of general military training continues in Ukraine.
