Citizens who are forcibly mobilized into the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from the conditional Sports Palace would never have joined the army by any other means. Therefore, it's not a bad thing that they are bolstering the troops at least in this way, as there are no signs that a "million" American soldiers will appear in Ukraine anytime soon. Regarding her views on mobilization, demobilization, and conscription, the head of the medical service "Ulf" of the First Separate Assault Battalion "Wolves Da Vinci" named after Dmitry Kotsyubailo, Alina Mikhaylova, shared her thoughts in an interview with TSN.
Mikhaylova explained that she continues to insist that all Ukrainians will fight. She noted that it would indeed be great if helicopters filled with a "million" American soldiers arrived from the USA. However, since this will not happen, all hope rests on the Ukrainian nation, as heard in the video.
"All we can rely on is only ourselves and our country. On the people, because they are not a nation, but a people, we cannot rely just yet. But we constantly say, 'Glory to the Nation! Death to the enemies!' Only the entire nation — they are here, in these thickets, in these inflatable boats on Krynyky," she stated.
The medic also commented on how she assesses citizens who have been "busified" (i.e., forcibly grabbed off the streets and mobilized) and who fear that "they are being sent to death." According to her, fighters from the Third Assault Battalion encounter such military personnel when "attached" units join them. None of these men would have volunteered for the army, and for them, the only path is this "busification." Such men are detained, for example, near the Sports Palace after an "Okean Elzy" concert, and this is a positive development because they have managed to evade mobilization by other means.
"I wouldn't say that these are super bad people. In fact, they are laughed at, those who have been busified. This happens only because someone somewhere cannot simply buy their way out, while in reality, everyone in this country should be busified," the medic declared.
Alina shared a few words about demobilization, mobilization, and closed borders. She believes that the lack of demobilization and the fear that people will leave the front line is not a "winning strategy." In her opinion, the borders are closed because somewhere "on the president's desk" lies a real mobilization plan, and this is the way they keep those who will eventually be called into the army.
"I feel that somewhere there is a secret and total plan signed by the president. I want to say that the time has come, and it's time to mobilize everyone," Mikhaylova concluded.
We remind you that on November 19, Dmitry Kotsyubailo's sister, Alexandra, spoke about her views on draft dodgers.
