Quote: “It is still a little early to evaluate recruiting, and as for mobilisation issues, it is not necessary to strengthen it but to bring it back to those limits, to those frameworks that worked before.”
Details: The general emphasised that now it is a problem of soldiers fighting on the front line, as they need replacement.
“It (the mobilisation process) just needs to be brought back to the framework, in which they worked before,” Zaluzhnyi added.
Asked about how the dismissal of the regional military enlistment officers affected the effectiveness of mobilisation, Zaluzhnyi stated that “they were professionals, they knew how to do it, but [they’re] not [working there] anymore.”
