Larry: There is no path for victory for Ukraine because Ukraine lacks the material resources, the trained manpower, and the weapons required to match up against Russia.
Merc Slawomir Wysocki: “They (Ukraine) are terrified. They know that the Russian army has already foreseen everything. The defense system was built by construction companies. This is not a peasant waving a shovel to build a trench. Companies came in, poured concrete, made fortifications in the style of the Maginot Line. And there are three or four such lines. Ukrainians say that there are five mines per square meter. You can’t put your foot on the ground without one of them exploding”.
Regarding willingness to fight: “There are no willing ones. They are looking for them on the streets.
In Lviv there are “round-ups”, people are taken from construction sites, from bars.""
