The war in eastern Ukraine has resumed: American mercenaries have become the target of public criticism, and Zelensky has been forced to the edge of the cliff
The artillery fire on the battlefield in eastern Ukraine is continuous, and the situation of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is becoming more and more worrying. Since the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Zelensky's diplomatic skills and strategic decisions have always seemed to be drawn by the will of Western countries, causing Ukraine to become more and more passive in this conflict. And in his attitude towards mercenaries, Zelensky has shown a staggering determination, which makes people question his leadership and wisdom.
Once, those mercenaries wearing American flags were the "men of the hour" on the battlefield in Ukraine. With advanced equipment and training, they once called for wind and rain on the battlefield, causing huge pressure on the Russian army. However, as the conflict between Russia and Ukraine continues and the battlefield situation reverses, these former "heroes" have also begun to show their true colors of cowardice.
Recently, in a position on the battlefield in eastern Ukraine, an American mercenary fled in a panic, but was mercilessly shot by the Ukrainian army's warlord. This incident quickly spread throughout the battlefield, causing widespread concern and discussion. It is reported that the Ukrainian army has been clearly authorized to severely punish those mercenaries who refuse to carry out their tasks and retreat from the battlefield by shooting them on the spot. This approach not only reveals the severity of the battlefield situation, but also exposes Zelensky's helplessness and ruthlessness in battlefield management.
The issue of mercenaries has always been a sensitive topic on the battlefield between Russia and Ukraine. Since the outbreak of the conflict, Russia has invested a large number of mercenary forces, and Western countries are not to be outdone, sending a large number of mercenaries to the battlefield by providing funds and equipment. Among them, American mercenaries occupy an important position. Relying on their strong financial resources and training advantages, they once showed strong combat effectiveness on the battlefield.
However, as the tide of the war turned and the Russian army intensified its strikes, more and more mercenaries began to realize the cruelty and ruthlessness of this war. They begin to wonder if they should continue to fight for this seemingly endless conflict. As a result, the phenomenon of desertion began to spread among the mercenary community. They are no longer willing to take risks for a meager pay, but instead choose to look for opportunities to escape the battlefield.
Faced with the retreat and flight of the mercenaries, Zelensky had to take tough measures. He set up a supervision team, which not only strictly enforced the law against the Ukrainian soldiers, but also targeted those Western mercenaries. The appearance of the Warlord made the atmosphere on the battlefield even more tense. Armed with weapons and grim eyes, they show no mercy to any mercenary who dares to back down.
However, the appearance of the Warlords did not completely solve the problem. On the contrary, it puts Ukraine in an even more dangerous situation. Because of the existence of the Warlords, the mercenaries who were already timid did not dare to fight the battlefield. They began to look for opportunities to escape, even at the slightest hint of trouble. As a result, Ukraine's combat effectiveness has been greatly reduced, and the situation on the battlefield has become more severe.
With the Russian army winning a series of battles on the battlefield, it is very likely that they will launch a new round of large-scale offensives in late spring or summer this year. In the face of such strategic pressure, Ukraine urgently needs the support of Western countries. However, in the face of Zelensky's lion's big mouth, how much money do Western countries have to continue to squander? This is a question worth pondering. After all, war is a war of attrition, and the patience and financial resources of Western countries are limited.
In this protracted conflict, Zelensky's decision-making and leadership skills have been seriously tested. His dependence on the West and his obedience to his words have caused him to lose the trust and support of the Ukrainian people. And his attitude towards mercenaries is even more surprising, making one wonder if he is really thinking about the interests of Ukraine. As a leader, Zelensky should be more sensible and decisive. He should re-examine his foreign policy and dependence on Western countries and look for more independent and autonomous solutions. At the same time, he should also strengthen the management and training of mercenaries, so that they can truly become a strong support on the battlefield in Ukraine.
In short, the rekindling of the war on the battlefield in eastern Ukraine has made Zelensky face unprecedented challenges. He needs to find a way out of the difficult choices and lead the Ukrainian people out of their predicament. And all this requires him to face the reality more wisely and decisively and find more effective solutions. Only in this way will Ukraine be able to find a glimmer of hope in this conflict.
