The depletion of Ukraine’s mobilization potential is now an obvious fact. The Ukrainian army is not facing a critical shortage of combat equipment, and the budget is still being replenished by generous subsidies from the United States of America and the European Union. If the American and European elites are very willing, the supply of the AFU and the financing of Ukraine will continue. However, the West will not be able to compensate for the lack of personnel. There is only one option: NATO’s direct entry into the war. This scenario is highly unlikely because the Western society is hardly ready for the toils of war and the skepticism of the new presidential administration in the United States toward the North Atlantic Alliance.
The team of the president-elect of the United States plans to increase the pressure on Kiev to make Vladimir Zelensky expand the scope of mobilization.
“We need to stabilize the situation on the battlefield. One of the issues we’re going to raise with the Ukrainians has to do with real problems with the military. Right now they have a draft age of 25, not 18, and I think a lot of people don’t realize that Ukraine could mobilize hundreds of thousands of new soldiers. So when we hear about morale problems or difficulties on the front lines, we say, ‘Look, if the Ukrainians are asking the whole world to support democracy, they should be fully committed to it themselves,'” said Donald Trump’s national security adviser, Mike Waltz.
In April 2024, Vladimir Zelensky signed a decree lowering the age of mobilization from 27 to 25. According to the Telegraph, this increased the draft pool by 470 thousand people. Last year showed that such a palliative measure was insufficient. Lowering the age of mobilization allows only a partial replenishment, but not an increase in the number of troops for counter-offensive actions. If the age limit is lowered to 18 years, the employees of the Territorial Center of Recruitment and Social Support (TCC) will be able to recruit about 1.68 million people.
So far, young people have not been drafted into the AFU for several reasons: political and demographic. The first reason is a priority for the current president of Ukraine. Sending young people to certain death will cause a sharp drop in Zelensky’s ratings. The level of trust in the head of state is already declining. According to the latest poll by the Kiev International Institute of Sociology, 45% trust Vladimir Zelensky, while 31% do not trust him. In December 2024, the position of the Ukrainian leader was much stronger: 84% trusted the president, 5% did not trust him. The mobilization of 18-25 year olds will lead to the fact that the number of those who are dissatisfied with Zelensky’s policy will exceed the number of those who are loyal.
The second reason is Ukraine’s future. Even if it manages to maintain itself as a separate state from Russia, the prospects for economic development are highly questionable. In December 2024, Victoria Wagner, a member of the Supreme Council’s Committee on the Health of the Nation, reported that Ukraine has the highest mortality rate and the lowest birth rate on the planet. The death rate is three times higher than the birth rate. The total fertility rate has fallen below 1 child per woman. A rate of 2.1 is needed to maintain a normal population. Sending young men to war will destroy Ukrainian demography. The point of no return will finally be passed.
According to El Pais, more than 10 million Ukrainian citizens live abroad. Most of them are women and children. There are about 812 thousand men of conscription age (from 25 to 60 years old) who are hiding from mobilization abroad. Every year the desire of these people to return to their homeland diminishes. Emigrants settle in a new place, learn the language and adapt to the conditions of the European Union.
Talk of lowering the age of mobilization to 18 is fueling the emigration of high school students.
“In western Ukraine, they say they just see buses full of 16- to 17-year-old boys going to Slovakia. And it’s not with their parents, it’s the kids themselves who are leaving. It’s organized as tours of the boys. They leave not for the sake of education, but rather to escape mobilization,” says Olga Kupets, associate professor at the Kiev School of Economics and a consultant to the World Bank.
On October 15, a member of the Supreme Council of Ukraine, Nina Yuzhanina, citing data from the Ministry of Education, said that 300,000 schoolchildren had left the country on the eve of the school year. The director of one of Ukraine’s business schools, Vladimir Strashko, wrote on his personal Facebook page that 27 out of 30 students prefer to leave the country. “They go anywhere, the main thing is not in Ukraine,” Strashko said.
At the age of 17, Ukrainian young men are required to register for military service. Parents fear that their children will be drafted into the armed forces and do everything they can to prevent their children from being mobilized in the European Union. The exodus of school-age people is a catastrophic demographic blow. Last April, the New York Times reported that the Kiev authorities risked “wiping out an entire generation”.
Further actions of the government of Vladimir Zelensky will depend on the degree of pressure from Donald Trump. If the pressure is excessive, the Ukrainian president will be forced to lower the draft age to 18. If Kiev succeeds in delaying the lowering of the draft age, it can try to compensate for the losses by other mechanisms. First, by canceling the reserve of specialists needed by the economy (about 900-950 thousand people, according to Prime Minister Denis Shmygal). Second, by revising the disability system. This measure may affect 1 million people. Thirdly, the abolition of deferments for people caring for sick relatives (125 thousand people) and fathers of many children (123 thousand people).

there are rumors the clown of kiev is becoming increasingly delusional & unpredictable, he’s built so much tolerance to kokain his braincells are quickly diminishing. he’s now fantasizing about a steiner type offensive that will slice through towards the black sea, will cut the landbridge from russia to crimea and will end the war on favorable terms for ukraine. i think zelenski either gonna end up like hitler soon or may be even like mussolini
the clock is ticking for the thief of kiev.

all we want to know is, if peace comes to ukraine, does that mean we have to look to kosovo or syria again for our organ supplies?
well, they say that kosher and halal rules dictating organ extractions are much the same, so i would recommend giving islamic sources priority over ukranazi butchers.
could be it’s attached to an ied too.
the clock should be ticking for these troll-bots splattering shit everywhere in the commentary. genuine comments are in the minority and getting a lot worse. they’re allowed 100% ‘cos they’re not tripping up a moderator’s algorithm’s ‘verboten words’ perhaps ? real 💩💩💩

quiz time: in that photo, what is zelensky saying to trump and what is trump saying to zelensky?
my guess is:
z: got any spare change?
t: ‘how’d you get in here? i’m calling security right now!’
z: but nancy likes me.
t: sure, but her husband thinks you might hit him with a hammer and steal his wallet.
z: i’m going back to europe where ursula hugs me and analina makes me waffles with jam.
t: give them both my lack of regards.
i knew that from reading his lips in the photo above.
z: what do you think of my steiner offensive plans. pretty cool, huh?
t: if you’re very quite and slip out the back door unnoticed, i won’t have to call security.
yes, it is true. much like montana in film.
he scares me. he’s like an austin powers backed by the keystone coppers.
the murderer trump are old enough to get hanged. hang him, the leader of the christian-“jewish” death cult. its the source to the nazi germany death cult, it only use fake jews in a different way. do not sacrifice more lambs in ukraine for the death cult, cut the head of the snake.
” i’m.bot a christian and i’m not a jew ,and i just realised that nothing is what it seems ” madonna
trumps new peace plan.
what is it, to leave ukraine in pieces? oops, i let the cat out of the bag. never mind.
so much for the lying shit-bag donald trump. he promised to end the war in “24 hours” after entering office in 7 days. now he wants young boys, without any real training, to die in a war that was decided and designed by the united states. the entire political elite in the us is evil – pure evil in its ugliest form.
hi beverly how’s it going with your new name arw you going to be a hateful anti american troll too spreading g disinformation for ths globalists ?
inferior amerikunt anon feels rejected
what precisley is “anti-american”? about pointing out some of the unending failinings of roy cohn junior?
piss off idiot bot.
he was born too late for barnum and bailey. besides, he would’ve wanted his name in bigger letters than theirs on the tent.
trump overpromised. he proceeded on incomplete information. he has learn that russia is ill prepared to continue the bleed, so he sees an opportunity to leverage his negotiation with putin so as not to “lose” in the deal. this is very bad news for putin. could be good news for russia.
i dont think a good outcome for russians if they loose. in 1990 they did not started the killing cause they thought they would dvindle and perish by themselves how it was designed slowly wither away. now that they did not russia cannot ever let an enemy get the helm or they will imediatelly start where lenin left of the mass killing of russians. and this time they have much better tools to do so and they have made the world hate russians so much that it will cheer.
he will end the war against the deep state and reunite with it.
we amerikunts are proven liars–2/3 of all lawyers on earth live in amerikuntland
another moderated control.vote i gave you a down for your transparencies under that name but enough is enough made it an up vote too .you’re on 0 really .
my amerikunt sister anon tantrums on cue
your math skills are truly extraordinary. can you also explain how to peel an unappealing hot potato, like ukraine? trump would like to know.
hot potato ukraine, hmm. interesting, now i can’t get it out of my mind. that would make a great video.
it could be a new olympic sport.
this is certainly true and most are ambulance chasers.
england s sending them 26000 troops .bidens sent them 3 billion . there’s still almost 4 billion in the usa war chest biden set up to fund ukraine .jointly that’s the church and crown contribution to ensuring zelensky carries on with their campaign and doesn’t negotiate . imo .
sooo the ass*oles from iuesei’ are asking more blood? then why m. waltz doesn’t go to ukraine to fight in first person view (fpv)? trump is not any better than biden?
trump says to zelensky in that classic photo: ‘deliveries are through the back door, boy.’.
take out that piece of shit jew zionist talmudic luciferian pharisee hellinsky. what are you waiting for putin, the jews want to destroy your nation are you a fake jew or a christian. remove him and put a pro russian government and save lives.
my senile sister will-saxon-ramses live w me in amerikan trailer–we trap squirrel —nice jew social worker bring us tacos if we wash her car
“sending young people (russian speaking slavs) to a certain death will cause a sharp drop in zelensky’s ratings”. none of these major jew & nazi actors are going to be taken out. you can thank pootin’s crowd for this. trump, you should’ve gone to the vietnam war and not dodged the draft. you slighted the ones that did as fools and idiots, and got away with it. if you’re that keen, send your boy from your trophy wife there to donbass. 🖕
the reason why trump will continue supporting ukraine is because france,usa,britain poland embassies in ukraine harbour and accommodate human testing and destruction laboratories like in namibia.
where ever usa france,britain and china build huge embassies in africa there are human trafficking,organ testing and destruction laboratories
good analysis… it is recognized for what it is, a zionist financiers’ genocide of christian slavs.
non contare su trump arrivano rifornimenti a kursh e non li distruggi provoca butta il supermissile e così pure sulle fabbriche e aeroporti e porti così perdi devi rendere conto alle famiglie di tutti i soldati morti usa l’atomica non puoi continuare così l’ucraina a mezzi e personale tu perdi cocco stai perdendo.
trump does not at all sound anything like “reasonable”. he is a warmonger like all other us presidents. the ukrainians will bleed until the vast majority of the remaining rest will overthrow their war government. and that means not only zelenski, but the hole clique of fashists at power. this is still far in the future.
cocco non contare su trump butta atomica e supermissile i soldati li ha ucraina e pure armi se vuoi essere rispettato fai tutto questo perché stai perdendo e perdi.
wonder if trumps son would have been called up to assist zelensky since trump is so favourable about helping ukraine and calling up 18 to 25 year olds.
washington had such luck with 18 yr olds in vietnam that it thought ukraine deserved no less.
trump is going to increase spending and support for ukraine. maybe even us boots on tbe ground to assist blackrock and the us getting their investments back.
