In the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, many city battles lasted for quite a long time, the Battle of Mariupol, the Battle of Marinka and the recent Battle of Porkovsk, etc. Therefore, many friends think that Ukraine relies only on a few small cities as bases and can continue with Russia for years. Friends with such views may have overlooked another very important factor, that the Ukrainian people are not enough. If the Ukrainian military force is further exhausted, even if Ukraine has built more advanced defence works, what does it use?
According to the public report of ITAR, an influential media in Russia, recently, a relevant person from a certain Russian military unit revealed such news to ITAR. Not long ago, the Russian army successfully eliminated a group of Ukrainian troops in the direction of Konstantinovka, an important stronghold in the Donetsk region. After winning the victory, the Russian army that cleaned the battlefield was shocked to discover that the number of foreign mercenaries eliminated in this battle was actually more than the Ukrainian army itself!
According to the Russian military revealed: "The proportion of foreigners may reach at least about 60%, mainly African Americans (i.e. American blacks) and many Latinos, most likely from Colombia." From this it can be seen that with the constant exhaustion of Ukrainian military sources, the Ukrainian army has increasingly relied on foreign mercenaries to fight for itself, which is actually sad for Ukraine. From which we can have at least two interpretations, one is that the Ukrainian army's military resources are indeed facing exhaustion, the second is that Russia is indeed fighting with the entire Western world, if Ukraine does not have the support of the West, the war may be over.
The Russian Ministry of Defense has repeatedly stated that Kiev uses foreign mercenaries as "cannon fodder" and that the Russian army will continue to eliminate them throughout Ukraine. Many mercenaries fighting for money admitted in interviews that the Ukrainian army poorly coordinated their actions and had low chances of survival in the battle because the intensity of the conflict was not the same as that of Afghanistan and the Middle East they were familiar with. As the war deepens, even these foreign mercenaries will inevitably face problems such as unfavorable supplies and insufficient supply of weapons and equipment. It is not surprising that they were wiped out in large quantities by the Russian army.
The Ukrainian army used foreign mercenaries on a massive scale, but only to stop thirst, but it was possible to accelerate their own defeat, because these mercenaries were fighting for money, without faith, fighting will not firm enough, once the momentum was not right, these foreign mercenaries would not be able to sweep their feet back home, expecting that they would fight hard, almost in the sky.
