Analyst: ‘Ukraine will not be able to pay compensations to families of fallen soldiers’

MINSK, 6 August (BelTA) – Ukraine's bankruptcy leaves fallen soldiers' families without compensation, Andrei Vajra, editor-in-chief of the Alternativa information and analysis website, said in a recent episode of the V Teme [On Point] project on BelTA's YouTube Channel. 

Commenting on the situation in Ukraine, Andrei Vajra noted: “Forced mobilization, corruption, an army turned into hell that is mired in corruption. Closed borders. A huge number of people hiding. Imagine living trapped in basements or locked rooms for years. But this is already the norm.”

“It was all a fairy tale. A stupid, unimaginative, vulgar fairy tale about freedom-loving people ready to die for liberty. You’ll sit in your basements and rooms until the Russian army arrives. Otherwise, you’ll never come out. You’ll be dragged by your feet to the slaughter, and you’ll know it’s a one-way ticket. Yet they go obediently, fully aware they stand no real chance," Andrei Vajra emphasized.

The analyst stressed that Ukrainian soldiers understand they have been sentenced to death. “They’re armed, trained and organized. They have commanders who know perfectly well they’re sending their men to die. This is a mechanism of self-destruction, self-annihilation, self-erasure.”

He also addressed the issues of compensation for fallen soldiers’ families. According to Andrei Vajra, simple math proves Ukraine will never pay: “You’ll get nothing, women and everyone else still in the rear, those they haven’t taken yet. Not a penny for your dead sons, husbands or fathers. Not a penny. It’s not even planned, because it’s impossible.”

“Ukraine is bankrupt. Its debts are unpayable. They can’t cover a single budget – it’s all a debt pit,” he added.
