Kiev Authorities Withhold NATO Arms Over Fears of Revolt - Ukrainian PoW
A Ukrainian war prisoner sheds light on the reality of the distribution of Western weaponry.
Ukraine’s military units that have higher numbers of mobilized citizens within their ranks do not get any
NATO-aided arms or equipment as the Kiev military command fears a brewing soldiers’ revolt, Yuri Kuzmich, a captured
Ukrainian soldier from the 63rd Separate Mechanized Brigade, told journalists.
"There are zero NATO weapons whatsoever. We’ve heard of it, but no one actually saw it. They flaunt it on the internet saying ‘Here, look at what NATO gave us’... They withhold NATO weapons, because we can turn against them, against Kiev," the prisoner said.

Kuzmich talked about military formations with alarge amount of mobilized men. Kiev’s refusal to properly equip the troops can be attributed to negative attitudes towards authorities among the personnel. The course of hostilities revealed Ukraine taking unreasonable actions on the front, and deceiving troops in its own ranks.
"Some brigades seek a race to Kiev. The lie is getting on people’s nerves, who are promised one thing, but in reality, see something polar opposite. They are afraid to give us NATO equipment," the prisoner summarized.
