The mobilization never stopped. From the beginning of the war to today, 350,000 soldiers have been enlisted. Numbers that contrast with the propaganda about “negligible” losses. In the United States, however, the Ukrainian pilots who will fly the F-16 will be trained
AGI – Russia has not suspended the mobilization and is considering the possibility of enlisting another 450,000 people. This was stated by Kyrylo Budanov, head of Ukraine’s defense intelligence services, according to reports from Ukrainska Pravda. Budanov, Budanov, in an interview with Krym.Realii, a project of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, stressed that the mobilization in the Russian Federation did not stop, last fall Moscow enrolled about 350 thousand Russians and the secret mobilization continues and currently between 20 and 22 thousand people are called up each month.
“This in itself leads to the next question: why such a figure if the losses are, as they say, negligible? Well, you will see that the truth is somewhere in the middle,” Budanov added.
The Ukrainian Top Guns will be trained in the USA
Ukraine, on the other hand, is preparing for the use of F-16 fighters and the training of its pilots will take place in the United States starting from September . The Pentagon made it known according to reports from the New York Times. Defense Department officials said last week that Ukrainian pilots would be trained in the United States if a European coalition effort to train dozens of pilots, led by the Netherlands and Denmark, reached maximum capacity.
But the approach is now changing to also bring several Ukrainian pilots, maintenance personnel and other support personnel to the United States for training as soon as Ukraine identifies them, General Patrick S. Ryder, spokesman, told reporters of the Pentagon. “We want to do everything we can to help advance this effort as quickly as possible in support of Ukraine,” he said.
