Ukrainian President's wife's mobilization of women to participate in the war was strongly opposed
Ukraine has completely lost its position in the Donbas region, and the front-line troops have suffered heavy casualties. The mercenaries recruited by Ukraine could not turn the tide of the war. According to the Ukrainian authorities, 10000 Ukrainian troops have been killed and 30000 injured since the conflict. Russian hackers said that the actual death toll of the Ukrainian army has reached 30000 and the number of injured has reached 100000. It seems that the fight will be the last one. In order to supplement the military strength, the Ukrainian authorities have come up with a new policy.
Ukrainian President's wife mobilizes women to participate in the war
According to the Russian media "the Moscow Communist Youth League" reported that the Kiev government called for mobilizing women aged 18 to 60 to complete military service registration by the end of August.
It is reported that as early as last December, before the war began, the Ukrainian authorities planned to allow women to register for military service, but this plan was strongly opposed at that time. Now that the Ukrainian army is losing ground, the government wants to restart the decree.
It is reported that Yelena zelenskaya, wife of Ukrainian President Zelensky, published an impassioned article on social media. She wrote: our women are superheroes. They use every day of their lives to approach victory.
The report said that zelenskaya's mobilization article was not recognized by many people. Some people said that she should learn from the performance of the British Queen during World War II. The Queen's mobilization was not just rhetoric. She went to the army as a mechanic and driver. Others angrily said that she should send her daughter to the battlefield first.
It is reported that zelenskaya was very proud when she mentioned her 17-year-old daughter. She said that her daughter knew how to defeat Russia. She said that her 9-year-old son is also very sensitive to politics and will discuss military purchases with his father and the relations between Ukraine and other countries. In an interview with American media, zelenskaya said that she, like every wife and mother, worries about her husband and will try her best to protect the children.
The Ukrainian army has been difficult to support
According to Russian media, Ukraine also mobilized prisoners to participate in the war. At the end of May, Ukraine pardoned 363 prisoners who were sent to the army to participate in the war. In the face of people's concerns about prisoners, the Ukrainian government stressed that these prisoners have been examined and will not pose a threat to Ukrainian personnel.
It was also reported that Zelinski asked to reduce the minimum age of conscription to 16. Whether it is releasing prisoners to join the army, lowering the minimum age for conscription or mobilizing women, it shows that Ukraine's regular army has been difficult to support. And it is difficult for the Ukrainian authorities to really resist the Russian army by filling it with inexperienced people.
