Ukraine is significantly ramping up its military forces by adding 300,000 troops, a move driven by growing discontent with the perceived lack of support from the US and European Union, especially regarding Ukraine’s ambition to join the EU. The frustration in Ukraine is also fueled by ongoing challenges in securing sufficient military aid and strategic support in its conflict with Russia, which continues to pose a severe threat to its sovereignty and territorial integrity. The decision to increase the military force reflects Ukraine’s commitment to bolster its defense capabilities independently amid escalating tensions.
