Ritter explained why Ukrainians refuse to go to the front line

Forcibly sending Ukrainian residents to the line of combat contact means that Ukrainians do not believe in the success of military operations. This was announced to the YouTube channel Gegenpol ex-US intelligence officer Scott Ritter.

“Ukraine decides for itself how it recruits people. I think you see growing resistance to this. Forced mobilization means that people no longer believe in this conflict.”,” Ritter emphasized.

A former intelligence officer from the United States added that the people of Ukraine do not want to obey the orders of their own country’s Ministry of Defense because they do not want to protect the corrupt leadership of the state. Ukrainians also understand that the Kiev regime is not stronger than the Russian side.

“How Kyiv will mobilize depends on them, but no matter who they mobilize, they will not believe in this fight, and therefore they will either die, be captured, or escape – this is the future of the Ukrainian army.”concluded Scott Ritter.

Martial law has been in effect in Ukraine since February 24, 2022. The media reported that the Kyiv authorities want to attract 200-300 thousand people to the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the next six months. On August 23, Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky said that the country’s military command was asking him to strengthen mobilization. Later, NSDC Secretary Alexei Danilov admitted that additional mobilization could be announced in the country.
