Hohol Diplomat Admits Kiev Not Reporting Casualties, Says Real Number “Horrible”

For whatever reason, the Ukrainian government is constantly going out and just publicly admitting things that I have been claiming.

I’ve said for nearly a year that the Kiev junta was lying about deaths as a way to downplay just how crazy it is that they are fighting a massive war and destroying their own country for the sake of the “strategic objectives” of the United States.

An official has just causally stated that in an interview, admitting that the real number of dead and maimed is beyond belief.

RT:

Ukraine will reveal the extent of its “horrible” losses once its conflict with Russia is over, , Kiev’s ambassador to the UK, said in an interview released on Friday.

Asked by British tabloid the Daily Express to comment on casualties among Ukrainian military personnel and civilians, Pristaiko said “it has been our policy from the start not to discuss our losses.”

“When the war is over, we will acknowledge this. I think it will be a horrible number,” he added.

Haha.

It’s like I wrote his responses for him, no?

Pristaiko dismissed any possibility of talks between Moscow and Kiev – at least until Russia withdraws its troops from the territories Ukraine claims as its own. “So, we have to fight to the very last of them or, very unfortunately, the last of us as well,” the envoy said.

Both sides of the Ukraine conflict rarely provide data on their losses. However, last autumn, EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen put Kiev’s fatalities at 100,000, a claim that was disputed by Ukraine and later removed from the official’s website. In December, Mikhail Podoliak, a senior aide to Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, put the death toll among Kiev’s military at between 12,000 and 13,000 people.

It’s a very big disparity.

Meanwhile, Kiev is claiming it has killed 200,000 Russians. If they have a nearly 20-1 kill-death ratio, then they would actually be the greatest army ever in human history. It’s just wacky they have the nerve to say this stuff.

In reality, as the ambassador said pretty clearly, Kiev is purposefully failing to keep real casualty numbers. They are in fact refusing to retrieve their own dead in order to prevent any attempts to count them. This allows them to classify huge numbers of KIA (killed in action) as MIA (missing in action). The US has made no attempt to figure out their own numbers, given that they have an interest in simply repeating the absurdly low numbers.

It would be stupid for me to try to estimate it, but the EU apparently had its own numbers when it came out and said 100,000.

I think it is fair to just assume that they would be low-balling it by at least half, but who even knows what they based it on in the first place?

For now, it’s enough to know that the Ukraine admits to lying about the number and purposefully failing to report deaths so as not to demoralize their own people and their globalist supporters.
