Ukrainian Defense Minister: Million Troops Being Assembled to Retake South

In an interview, Ukrainian Defence Minister Oleksiy Reznikov stated that Ukraine is assembling a troop of millions equipped with Western weapons to counterattack the southern territories currently controlled by Russia.

According to reports, Reznikov said Zelenskyy had ordered the Ukrainian army to retake the Russian-controlled, key economic coastal areas. “We understand that, politically, it’s very necessary for our country. The president has given the order to the supreme military chief to draw up plans.” Reznikov said.

Reznikov added in the interview: “We have approximately 700,000 in the armed forces and when you add the national guard, police, border guard, we are around a million-strong.”

Reznikov also mentioned Ukraine’s allies and claimed that an “an anti-Kremlin coalition has been born.” “Our partners in London and Washington D.C. and other capitals, they are invested in us, not only with money but the expectations of their people that we have to make the Kremlin lose. We have to win this war together.” Reznikov said.
