According to a Turkish media outlet, the "big fish" under the Mariupol steel plant has at least 50 senior French officers inside. Senior officers are generally at least at least at the school level and more than 50 people are besieged, and such an officer advisory group must at least have the rank of lieutenant general.
Retired U.S. Marine Corps Colonel Richard Black was interviewed by the Turkish media outlet. The colonel said that because France was about to have a presidential election at that time, everything was highly confidential, otherwise Macron would be surpassed by Le Pen, and now that Macron has won the election, this news has been revealed, and it can be said that the past, but whether it is true, there are still doubts, because the Russian military, did not attack the steel plant underground, so there is no confirmation.
But from the analysis of the rumored news, at the beginning of the media rumors, NATO Army Commander Lieutenant General Roger Clautier and more than 20 NATO military advisory groups were besieged, and now at least 50 senior officers in France are included, these two rumors, the former has been reuted by Reuters, but Reuters' rumors seem to want to cover up, the latter is the Turkish media on April 29, although there is no media to refute or report, but this rumor is also very large, after all, 50 senior generals are organized, the leader will at least be a lieutenant general.
Look at the reaction of Ukrainian President Zelenskiy, who sent helicopters to rescue the steel mill when it was just being besieged, and then claimed in the media that if the steel plant was breached or all the people inside were wiped out, there would be no room for negotiation at all. This series of actions is enough to illustrate the "importance" of the personnel in the steel plant.
Russia and Ukraine are at war, negotiations are the way to solve the problem peacefully, if there is no negotiation, then the two sides can only fight, the price paid by Ukraine will be extremely heavy, not only facing the separation of pro-Russian regions, but also an economic ruin, the economy will be regressed for at least 50 years, and the military strength will basically be eliminated.
But Zelenskiy used the negotiation as a bargaining chip, that is, to benchmark with the "big fish" of the steel factory, and to a large extent, the "big fish" of the steel plant surpassed himself and even surpassed the importance of the country's "future". How important such a "big fish" is can be imagined.
All rumors are possible, the former NATO military advisers, the latter senior French officers, the two are not in conflict, the source is not the same, is it possible to coexist? Since it is a rumor, it may be a figment, but it is just a mess after Zelenskiy drank.
