Croatia, 4 million people, managed to mobilize 250 000 (without any foreign help, and actually embargo on weapon buying) for final liberation offensive.

If Ukraine, 40m people country, cant mobilize at least 2 million after receiving hundreds of billions help

then obviously Ukrainians don't feel its worth it, for whatever reason
Mobilizing 2 millions in 40 millions people country looks nice and easy on paper, but reality is a bit different. From these 40 millions we should exclude women, children and elderly people. Then there is at least few millions people who left country during war and also people who alredy serving in army or died. So, actual number that you can potentially mobilize is so much smaller.
Why there issituations like in video above. In cities which are more far away from front line like Lviv, Kyiv, Odesa people are trying to live normal life. They are going no night clubs, pubs, cinema, concerts and etc. These who had motivation to defend country went fighting long time ago, others don't want to change their normal life, leave families and etc go to trenches, and drones and artillery flying above their heads. They want to continue living normally as they used before war, but they think that others have to fight for them. Don'y know what solutions for this problem is.

I do not think there is a huge mobilisation problem in that sense. I think the problem is that Ukraine population pyramid already suffered massively after the fall of the USSR due to the economy shock. You need people in a country and that people need to be young and able to raise children. Those that were first to be called are the ones that are older and probably had kids. Calling the young is a difficult decision, but they would eventually be used by Ruzzia later to fight for them in the next war, so anyway they are going to have to fight.

Would they die for Putin or would they live for their own country and right to choose their destiny?

I do get it that they want to go about their normal lives, who would not? It is difficult to assume that is simply not possible any longer.




Personally, I think UK should send troops over there...after all, they wanted Ukrainians to fight instead negotiating

I though you said that NATO was already there? NATO but not UK?

You are bit obsessed with the UK btw, but I guess that is quite common as it is a country that has been at war with nearly every other nation so at a point it has probably invaded or somehow fought you ancestors. However, in the end it was only thanks to the US and perhaps the UK that Milosevic was stopped and life could become something like normal in the Balkans.

you know the uk just want to destroy everyone, so that we are all the serfs of their hereditary rulers, so that they can like with esptein or savolle rape our kids, backed by the mi6 and scotland yard...

on that a Q : with Idiolect or forensic linguistics, how many indviduals do you think have handled the paxmao account? 1, many? I hope they all face the consequences of their deeds, the suicide of an entire generation for blackrock (larry fink), bungee, syngenta, and others bayers who sought to make this area theirs, to farm, harvest and plunder it like they always do where ever they are allowed...

Oh, that's lovely. Unfortunately, I think you know much more about handlers than me. It would be very unlikely that you could tell your own ass (or arse, whichever you shall prefer) from your mouth checking my writing.

Now, off the troll mud, into the images o... oh, wait, why don't you use your "analytic skills" to tell me how many MIG-31, which can no longer be produced, might have been destroyed by those "not useful western weapons"?

Massive Ukrainian drone attack on Crimea causes power cutoffs in Sevastopol
In images taken by US satellite imaging company BlackSky and space technology firm Maxar, two jets can be seen burned out on the main flight line at Belbek, in addition to a third parked on a protective embankment. The satellite images also show a destroyed building nearby and another which has taken significant damage.

Mikhail Razvozhaev, the Russian-appointed governor of Sevastopol, said on Telegram Friday that the Russians “successfully repelled a massive enemy attack on Sevastopol.”


Repelled... I see...
