20,000 per month for seven months (June, 2023 to January, 2024) is 140,000. Only five new brigades has been approve in that time, so 15,000 for that purpose and you're left with 125,000.

Problem with your theory is both Zelensky and Zaluzhny have rejected it in on the record statements: "As of now, I did not see demobilization in their plan. And that is a number one question, an issue of justice for those fighting at the war front for so long," Zelensky said last week. But...

They haven't passed the bill yet to release people as you claim and only announced the creation of five brigades (~15,000) in the second half of 2023. So why exactly would they need to be replacing 125,000 people (excluding new brigades) since the Summer of 2023?

Well good thing he linked to Maryana Bezuhla, deputy head of Verkhovna Rada Committee then, right?

Nope:

Given they've only announced the creation of 15 brigades (~3,000 per each) to replace the units they'll rotate out, you're left with the question of what the other ~455,000 are for...

So, since I posted that, it turns out Zelensky is far less clever than I give him credit for. He concedes the loss rates in the AFU are pretty much exactly what Yuriy Lutsenko said they are in his interview.

And NATO didn't do anything about it, either.

Okay? The Russians still brought it down. It was solely over Poland, if it was moving troops that's an odd place to do it and if it was an accident, Kaliningrad would've been equally effected, but it wasn't:

They literally blew up ammo dumps in Czechia and Bulgaria, fly missiles through Polish airspace and brought down American Drones. NATO is not going to war over this.

Unlike then, however, Germany has announced forward deployments into the Baltics and NATO just announced a 90,000 personnel exercise to deter the scenario. War Plan Red was a contingency plan, this leaked plan is what NATO has started to actively prepare for. That Ukrainians announced they...

Which was? No, let’s get exact time stamps. You’ve made the claim, let’s see the evidence. Hence why I’ve maintained a consistent line and always provide evidence. Okay, then prove it by quoting Poe, for example, where he states he shares my views. Should be easy enough for you. No...

By the way, you have yet to state what your friends told you beyond that he used a “complex and rare style”. I find that an odd omission on your part, since you’ve not said they’ve disputed what it’s claimed he said is false.

Then please give the relevant time stamps from the full length video that show meaningful context was cut. Indeed, that’s why objective standards are important and why I’m pointing out your failure to maintain them are a disservice to your argument. Let’s see your evidence for that claim...

I provided a shorter clip to show the relevant part. If I was trying to hide something, why would I then provide you with the full length version from the official Ukrainian channel? The issue is that in the course of this conversation you have engaged in consistently moving the goalposts. You...

I didn't ask you to doxx them, I asked you to define the source because you said you consulted the internet. I too have Ukrainian friends and they said it's an exact translation. Well given the full length cut I gave said exactly the same thing, I'm not sure why that is in your opinion. It's...

Okay, so you used an internet translator to cast doubt on the video but you've repeatedly said you don't trust those. Can you provide me the name of this translator so I can double check you? Equally, can you provide evidence ABC reported the claim without fact checking? I linked you to the...

You previously said you don't speak Ukrainian, so how would you know that? I don't, hence why I asked you; no need to be hostile.

I actually linked to the original video and offered multiple translation services and, once you switched to the matter of trustworthiness of the source instead, I then explained the credentials of the official in question. I have now provided third party mainstream media quoting the official...
