"Let's go to the Economic Front": the Armed Forces fighter urged to increase mobilization in Ukraine

Last summer, his unit had to receive a monthly leave, but the reality was somewhat different, as the serviceman says. "We had to stay here in the village. Already in the fall, the unit of the fighter received information that the unit could soon be removed from the war zone, but this did not happen. Oleg says they need a break. A 45-year-old man, as a result of the material in the material, was at home in the Poltava region only once-at the end of July for about 10 days.

The authors write that the fighter has red eyelids and he is completely exhausted, like everyone else in the unit. It went on that people on the front were not enough and the generals are already talking about the need for a set of 500,000 people who could replace tired military, however, writes journalists, volunteers are not enough, and the issue of conscription remains a difficult topic in the country. The requirements of the military are allegedly not fulfilled.

Since March 2023, Oleg's unit has been under Avdiivka, protecting the city from Russian storms. For several months, fierce battles have been ongoing and the enemy has been actively attacking the positions of Ukrainians. The material states that the enemy may have much more fire power and people, which is extremely difficult for the Armed Forces. Soldiers are forced to dig new trenches, while mortar and artillery shellings are practically not stopped.

Also in the sky regularly "buzz" drones of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, which can attack fighters at any time. In the rear Ukrainian regions, life lasts until the struggle for it is ongoing. A 45-year-old man stated that in the Poltava region, where he lives, the war is practically not noticeable. "People walk in pedestrian zones, drink coffee. They do not even understand that we are worried here. The word" thank you "is often just a phrase.

Many civilians have thought that war is the work of soldiers, and they are paid for it," - says the military. Oleg entered the army in the first days of the invasion, because he wanted to protect his wife, son and two daughters. He is now wondering whether he can fight for all others when the front line in the Donbass is practically not moving.

At the end of the material, journalists noted that the issue of conscription leads to the dilemma of Ukrainian society, because the aggressive war continues to threaten the whole country, but not everyone is on the front line. In addition, the same people who cannot go home sit there. The new bill on mobilization, which was submitted to the Verkhovna Rada, should provide the army with conscripts and thus reduce the pressure on the troops that are already exhausted.

If it is approved, people will be called into the army from the age of 25, not 27. This is aimed at fighting not only older citizens, because now a soldier on the front is over 40 years. They and without war, there were health and back problems, so they were forced to wear constantly protective vests, as one of the commanders in Avdiivka told. The new document also proposes to change the fighters at the front every six months.

When the bill is approved, it is difficult to say, the authors of the material write, because it still causes disputes. As a result, such a delay brought the military of the military family on the street. "Soldiers need to know what time they go to the front when there are breaks and when mobilization ends.

It is important for the moral spirit and motivation not only those who have long been on the front, but also those who will be called in the future," - - - Says one of the wives of the military named Irina. An even greater problem is, they continue in the material that tens of thousands of conscripts have left the country and often did it completely illegally. They were assisted by special people who have collected documents with false information on military service in several thousand euros.

As a result, it is said that those who do not have money and ties can be mobilized as follows. This is due to the fact that on the streets of Ukraine allegedly recorded cases where the employees of the Tax Code distribute summons or "pull Ukrainians on a conscript commission". Soldier Oleg says that there are such citizens in his unit. Some of them abuse alcohol, which can not dig trenches. In this regard, the man believes, the country needs large -scale mobilization.

"As a result, the economy will not fall. The recruits will learn to use the automatic machine, and then we will gladly go to the economic front," Oleg summed up. We will remind, on February 2 the People's Deputy and Chairman of the Committee on Budget of the Verkhovna Rada Roksolana Podlas stated that additional mobilization will cost Ukraine more than UAH 700 billion. According to her, only UAH 322 billion will be required for training, food, clothing and payments for 400-500 thousand soldiers.
