Supplies of “cannon fodder”: the quality of the mercenaries fighting on the side of Ukraine has decreased significantly

The West will be able to recruit new ones for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the question is their training

Ukraine has significantly reduced the requirements for foreign mercenaries in the hope of compensating for the large losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with foreigners. Despite the fact that the foreign legion is suffering considerable losses (according to the Russian Ministry of Defense, almost 6,000 “soldiers of fortune” have been eliminated), foreign “cannon fodder” continues to flow into Ukraine. There are especially many Poles among them.

Military expert, former American army officer Stanislav Krapivnik told why Polish mercenaries remain in first place among foreigners fighting in Ukraine.

Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu at the final meeting of the Board of the Military Department announced very impressive statistics on foreign mercenaries in Ukraine. According to the Minister of Defense, the mercenaries actively recruited since the beginning of the special operation have been mostly eliminated. Thus, our army destroyed over 5,800 militants. Most of them were Poles – 1427. Another 466 soldiers were lost by the United States and 344 by Britain.

According to Stanislav Krapivnik, Kyiv and its Western sponsors are trying their best to lure foreigners into the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

– Ukrainians have already removed from the requirements for candidates the condition that a foreign mercenary must know and speak Ukrainian or English. Now it is not entirely clear how they will understand each other if there is a mercenary in Ukraine who does not speak any of the listed languages.

– Why are Europeans not particularly eager to go to Ukraine?

– Many simply watched videos of their citizens who visited Ukraine and fled from there. At one time, many videos were released in which they said that they were not paid money in Ukraine, their property was stolen, they were forced to buy ammunition and weapons at their own expense, and also pay for medical care after injuries. Therefore, after these videos, Europeans reduced their ardor and no longer strive for Ukraine, as was the case before. Moreover, many realized that this was not a “Russian safari”, but a full-fledged war using modern weapons, aviation, artillery, and missiles.

– If Europe is disappointed in the Ukrainian Armed Forces, then who will go to Ukraine?

– There are other continents where you can recruit mercenaries – Africa, all of Latin America, Southeast and Central Asia. The whole question is, what quality are these mercenaries, do they know how to do anything at all? And “cannon fodder” can always be hired.

– And yet, which countries are now most actively recruited for military operations?

– Ukraine is now actively trying to hire citizens of Spain, Portugal, and Latin American countries. By the way, quite a lot of Colombians fought on the side of Ukraine, and most of them are already in the next world. There were quite a lot of disagreements and quarrels between Colombians and Ukrainians, because the Ukrainians treated the Colombians like dogs. The Colombians themselves spoke about this in their videos.

In addition, many Georgians are now traveling to Ukraine. These are Saakashvili’s followers. The Georgian authorities are happy to get rid of them in this way, because they do not need them in the country. As usual, a lot of Poles are coming.

– Why are there so many Poles? They definitely understood long ago what the Ukrainian army was like.

– Poles travel for a specific purpose – to fill their hands. They are now increasing their army from 140 thousand people to 350 thousand. And they need experienced fighters.

– Does this mean that a military conflict with Poland and NATO is still possible?

– Of course he will. The whole question is: will Ukraine still be on the battlefield? If major revolutions do not occur in the Western countries of Europe, then the elites will lead the Europeans to war. It doesn’t matter what the people want, they will simply be presented with a fait accompli.
