"All manpower, no metal" - Ukrainian mobilisation, equipment shortages, and training (2022x24)

Fecha de emisión: Ago 14, 2022

Today, thanks to a Patron vote, I look at Ukraine's situation. There, the combination of volunteers, popular resistance, and compulsory mobilisation filled the ranks with hundreds of thousands of new troops - but where a shortage of equipment and training has prevented them from realising the true potential of a mobilised, committed nation at war.
