But right now, we simply don\u2019t have enough troops.<br data-start=\"298\" data-end=\"301\" \/>Why? One major reason is the ongoing challenges with mobilization.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"369\" data-end=\"591\">And why is mobilization problematic? There are many contributing factors, but one of them lies within the CCC system. I use the term broadly here: each person involved can likely identify their examples and specifics.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"593\" data-end=\"793\">The enemy exploits this weakness with precision, targeting CCCs with information attacks, sending provocateurs as kamikazes, and mobilizing so-called \u201cuseful idiots\u201d to discredit CCC representatives.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"795\" data-end=\"1064\">Meanwhile, those who once (yes, <strong data-start=\"827\" data-end=\"835\">once<\/strong> \u2014 past tense!) had grievances with the CCC watch this unfold and gloat. Such scenes are then captured and amplified across enemy Telegram channels, tailored to shape public opinion and undermine the legitimacy of the CCC\u2019s work.<\/p>\n\t\t<aside class=\"shortcode-also\" data-title=\"Read also\" data-right>\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/en\/mailed-summonses-and-automatic-search-what-has-changed-in-the-mobilization-rules\/\">Mailed summonses and automatic search: what has changed in the mobilization rules<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\n<p data-start=\"56\" data-end=\"316\">I just explained in simple terms how the mobilization process \u2014 overseen by the Military Enlistment Offices (CCC) \u2014 is being deliberately undermined. Despite their flaws, these institutions are currently the only bodies responsible for replenishing our troops.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"318\" data-end=\"414\">And our troops are retreating. Slowly, but they are \u2014 because there simply aren\u2019t enough people.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"416\" data-end=\"667\">What\u2019s being imposed on you is a dangerous substitution of meaning: the war, they say, continues not because Russia attacked Ukraine and wants to destroy it, but because Ukraine is mobilizing. Stop mobilizing, and the war will end \u2014 peace will follow.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"669\" data-end=\"777\">But that\u2019s a lie. In reality, halting mobilization is one of Putin\u2019s conditions. That\u2019s called capitulation.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"779\" data-end=\"954\">And while we can still restore order within our CCCs \u2014 or at least demand that such order be restored \u2014 we won\u2019t be able to negotiate with those who will come after surrender.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"956\" data-end=\"995\">Let\u2019s not forget who the real enemy is.<\/p>\n<p>Also, follow <strong>\u201cPryamyi\u201d<\/strong> on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/prm_ua\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Twitter<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/+rtV4dxYu2_cyNjVi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Telegram<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Instagram.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><em>\u2022 Materials published in the \u201cOPINIONS\u201d section reflect the opinion of the author of the publication, who bears full responsibility for the accuracy of the information.<\/em><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><em>\u2022 The editorial staff of prm.ua may not share the opinions expressed in the author&#8217;s material.<\/em><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><em>\u2022 The owner of the webpage in the \u201cOPINIONS\u201d section is the author of the publication.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Source: Author&#8217;s Facebook page A coordinated campaign targeting representatives of the Centre for Civil Liberties (CCC) has emerged in Ukraine \u2014 a troubling sign of growing pressure on civil society amid war and political uncertainty.
