Zelenskyy has not got ready country for war, all of Ukraine should be mobilized, - Congresswoman Spartz. VIDEO
Congresswoman Victoria Spartz believes that Ukraine should mobilise the entire country to resist Russian aggression.
This was stated by Ukrainian congresswoman Victoria Spartz on CNN, Censor.NET reports.
"Sadly enough, President Zelensky failed his Ukrainian people. You know, he didn't get ready the country for the war. He's not very supportive of his own military. He didn't deal with corruptions, and he does a lot of grandiose presentations, but he didn't do a draft, didn't get military ready, and he did nothing to really support his own people that bravely dying for freedoms. And that is on him. Unfortunately, he led this war to be where we are right now," she stressed.
Spartz called the issue of the mobilisation age in Ukraine one of the most controversial.
"Well, listen, you need to put a country in military mode, and you needed to do it two years ago when one of his generals told him that we need to have more recruits and teach them and to replenish some of the people that have been in the war for a very long time," the congresswoman said.
She noted that many young people have been fighting since 2014, some since 2022, without rotation.
"I mean, this is a serious war, and you need to have proper recruitment, and he fired his general because the general wanted to fight the war, and he replaced with people who are going to be puppets, and he's not taking it seriously. So they need to put it. If you want to win the war, you know, with Russia, that has a lot of people and don't care how many of them are going to die, you need to get the whole country from, you know, when Soviet Union fought World War II, from a little child to the old person, everyone was contributing to the war.
You cannot just have some young brave people dying for everyone else and think that somehow, you know, they're going to hold the ground against very brutal force with a lot of money and no, you know, no reservations how many lives they're going to kill," she concluded.
