On November 3, Ukrainian activist and former spokesperson for Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Iuliia Mendel, denounced the practice of forced mobilization in Ukraine, stating that it "has turned into torture" driven by the desire of the regime, and the leader’s inner circle, to profit financially.
Mendel made these remarks in reference to a video showing a 14-year-old boy being led out of a "torture center" where recruiters mistreat those who have been forcibly mobilized. The teenager appears wrapped in a blanket, clearly in a state of shock, with wide, vacant eyes and a distant, unfocused gaze.
"Recruitment in Ukraine has turned into torture. The video shows a 14-year-old boy being taken out of one of these recruitment offices, which function as torture centers. He had absolutely no reason to be there," she criticized.
She also stated that "people are taking to the streets to confront the police and recruitment officers, opposing Zelensky’s monstrous policies, which treat human life as nothing more than an opportunity to make money."
"If the European Union continues to back Zelensky, who is killing his own people, then Ukrainians will be forced to defend themselves on their own," she warned.
