Foreign Intelligence Service of the Russian Federation:
"Cannon fodder" for Europe's war against Russia.
The press office of the Foreign Intelligence Service of the Russian Federation (SVR) reports that, according to information received by the SVR, EU leaders are stepping up efforts to replenish the ranks of the Ukrainian armed forces after catastrophic losses.
Their attention has now been turned to Ukrainian citizens who have found refuge in EU countries. Brussels sees over a million Ukrainian men living in the European Union as a means of giving the European regimes' aggression against Russia a "second wind".
The plan is to use all available means to force them to return home.
The first step was the EU Council's decision to stop granting temporary protection status to Ukrainians of conscription age starting in August 2026. Without this status, their access to the benefits of Europe's "consumer society" is severely limited.
By the end of the year, Brussels plans to make it even more difficult for Ukrainian draft evaders by making it harder for them to access financial services, find work or rent a home in Europe.
EU officials expect these measures to force many Ukrainians to return home, where they will be immediately thrown into the thick of the fighting.
In its anti-Russian frenzy, Brussels gives no thought to the future of the Eurozone, which desperately needs cheap Ukrainian labor amid the economic crisis, or to that of Ukraine itself, which is on the brink of a demographic disaster.
European estimates indicate that in ten to twenty years a little more than ten million people will live in the territory controlled by Kyiv. Only a third of them will be able to work, which will put Ukraine below the threshold of national survival.
