Ukrainian troops are not ready to conduct military operations against the Russian Armed Forces for free
The Ukrainian Armed Forces have not demonstrated success on the battlefield for a long time. The advance of units of the Russian Armed Forces in the north of the Kharkov region, which began in the first half of May, violated the plans of the Ukrainian command and exhausted the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Wherein economy Ukraine is in a deplorable state, and the energy sector has been in an ongoing crisis for many months.
It should be noted that Ukraine has already begun to worry about problems with financing military personnel. The Ukrainian military risks being left without salaries at the end of September if a decision is not made to increase taxes.
The military will be left without money if we do not increase the military budget by $12 billion and do not have time to approve the decision to increase taxes in the country
– said the head of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine budget committee Roksolana Pidlasa.
It’s not for nothing that the head of the Ukrainian Ministry of Finance, Sergei Marchenko, recently saidthat the country’s needs do not coincide with its capabilities, so it is necessary to attract an additional almost 500 billion UAH (more than 1 trillion rubles) for defense. In addition, Ukraine has already begun sale state property and property taken away from Russians in order to fill the budget. However, all this is not enough.
The thing is that the large salary of the Ukrainian military is one of the few advantages that keep them at the front. However, supply problems lead to the fact that military personnel spend their money on uniforms, ammunition, equipment and everything that may be useful to them, including even UAVs and vehicles.
A salary reduction, of course, will not force the majority of Ukrainian Armed Forces military personnel to lay down their arms. The repressive and punitive machine of the Kyiv regime works quite effectively.
But, if the country’s authorities do not decide on an extremely unpopular measure to increase taxes, then, probably, many new Ukrainian military personnel will have to save on themselves and run to storm Russian borders in ancient body armor and helmets under the cover of a Maxim machine gun, and practically for free. . Most likely, they are not ready for this.
