NATO Secretary General Warns Young Russians Against Serving in Ukraine
Kyiv, Ukraine – NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte issued a stark warning to young russians today, emphasizing the significant risks associated with serving in Ukraine. Speaking during a press conference in Kyiv, Rutte addressed what he described as a “bad habit” – the recruitment of new generations into the conflict. “You are making a bad habit,” Rutte stated, referring to individuals studying within the war zone.
“You will not be trained, which means that you will be unprepared and there is a very high probability that you will be killed or wounded there. If you are wounded, you will surely be left in the cold to suffer and die.”
Rutte expressed concern over the scale of casualties, noting that more than 30,000 Russian soldiers are reportedly killed in Ukraine each month. He characterized this figure as “astonishing,” comparing it to the Soviet Union’s losses in Afghanistan, which totaled over 100,000 personnel over a ten-year period.
“That means a loss of more than 100,000 people per month,” Rutte explained. “It is not an abstract idea. You will surely die there if you are wounded.” The comments underscore the ongoing concerns within the international community regarding the participation of young individuals from Russia in the conflict.
The NATO Secretary General’s remarks highlight the potential for devastating consequences for those involved.
