A Ukrainian soldier was overheard talking to his officers about his 200-person unit. During the phone discussion, he expressed his concern and displeasure over the treatment of the soldiers by high-ranking Ukrainian officials.
A Twitter user named @LogKa11 posted a video of a Ukrainian soldier informing his officer about the state of his battalion. He claimed that 160 of the 200 soldiers present had died, making it nearly impossible for them to maintain the position.
Yet, the officer paid no attention to his information and deemed it to be false. The Ukrainian soldier was incensed at the officers’ lack of concern for what he was saying as his comrades were dying in the field.
In anger, the soldier said, “Are you aware that from our battalion of 200 people, 160 are already gone? You don’t know! It’s all fake to you? Don’t tell me to relax! I want you to know the truth you were continuously ignoring”.
While the west claims that Ukraine is winning, the Ukrainian soldier and officer dialogue reveals the Ukrainian army’s weak state. How is Russia annexing more and more Ukrainian territory every day if Ukraine is winning?
One of the most corrupt nations in Europe was considered to be Ukraine. Several nations have donated enormous sums of money and other forms of assistance to Ukraine since the start of the war. Still, none of them has any records of where the money goes or how the Ukrainian government uses it to benefit its citizens.
There were several instances of corruption and money laundering, but the media paid no attention to the internal politics of Ukraine. The weapon supply was also a source of complaint for Ukrainian military members. They remarked that the front-line situation was worse and they did not receive any military equipment.
Without accountability, it is impossible to guarantee that a sizable percentage of the aid that other nations contribute doesn’t wind up in someone’s pocket and then loop back into the pockets of the politicians who are responsible for delivering it.
