Our source reported that Zelensky promised Western partners not to demobilize, but only to increase reserves to prepare a new counteroffensive.
The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Ihor Klymenko, made it clear that demobilization, which people's deputies have recently become more frequent, is still impossible.
"If we demobilize those people who, for example, have served two years, then our front will sag and the units will be inferior. We now have to restore the combat capability of the units and we must have, at least, an equivalent replacement during the rotation of the active brigades and battalions... We have no right to collapse the front," Klymenko said in an interview with Radio Svoboda.
According to the minister, talks about demobilization are possible only when new soldiers with experience appear.
"In order to hold, we need experienced military personnel. For example, these people who are currently training at the training ground, they will become experienced soldiers in a few months... If there are two formations, then we can talk about greater demobilization," said Klymenko.
