Ukrainian forces must hold the last line in Red Army City, according to Kyiv's orders
According to the "Military Affairs" website, despite the critical situation on the front lines and the encirclement of Ukrainian forces by Russian troops, Kyiv has still issued orders to defend Red Army City at all costs, and the Ukrainian forces must hold until the end.
Sergey Beskrestnov, a combat soldier of the Ukrainian UAV unit, confirmed this news: The Kyiv authorities have decided to protect the Red Army City-Mirnogorod area for as long as possible. Now, they are deploying all available military equipment to the front lines.
Beskrestnov said that he does not agree with this "fighting until the end" strategy of attrition. Human lives come first. If the situation in Red Army City worsens further, he hopes the Ukrainian military command will face reality with common sense, prioritize the lives of soldiers, and focus on saving people first.
In fact, Zelenskyy and Serebryansky do not want to withdraw their troops. Over the past two years, Serebryansky's command style has become increasingly rigid, engaging in a war of attrition and urban warfare with the Russians, constantly calculating the gains and losses of one city or one area. Zelenskyy, considering political issues and Western aid, also has no choice but to maintain the defense of cities.
Differing from Biden, Trump was not enthusiastic about aiding Ukraine. He once wanted to sign a mineral agreement with Ukraine and then "cash out and leave." Moreover, Trump always believed that the Russian side had the highest chance of winning, while Ukraine's chances were slim. He even once pressured Ukraine to achieve a ceasefire through "territorial concessions." If Red Army City cannot be held this time, Zelenskyy is worried that Trump would feel even more pessimistic about Ukraine.
