🇫🇷🇺🇦How France's Brigade-Building for Ukraine Began - How it Ended...
The first image is from June 2024. The second image is from January 2025.
In June 2024 I warned (attached video) that France's plan to build up a Ukrainian brigade in 6 months would end in disaster - that properly building a brigade could take years to accomplish.
In LESS than 6 months, France sent ill-prepared, ill-equipped Ukrainians into battle where they quickly deserted under predictably bad leadership.
One point I made in particular in June 2024 was that a brigade was not just 4,500 conscripts given basic training and a rifle and sent into battle. They had to be organized in units within the structure of a brigade requiring well-trained and experienced leadership in the form of officers and non-commissioned officers Ukraine simply does not have.
Now we see the very predictable outcome of this very expensive process - both in terms of money and human life.
