According to ТСН: The deployment of "multinational forces" in Ukraine after the war is unlikely to bring real benefits in the fight against Russian aggression. According to Colonel Maxim Zhorin, Deputy Commander of the 3rd Army Corps of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, this issue is more political than practical.

What should the troop strength be

"In fact, a 700-thousand Ukrainian army, with the necessary reforms and a focus on technology, is quite sufficient for defense," the military noted.

He also emphasized that the further development of the situation will depend on whether the reform process continues and whether the West truly joins in supporting and equipping the Ukrainian army.

Recall that earlier Zhorin said who is harming the army. In his opinion, a real disaster for the Ukrainian army is the so-called "paper" generals and colonels who do not understand modern warfare.

Maxim Zhorin's position emphasizes the importance of not only quantity but also the quality composition of the armed forces. In particular, modern challenges require not only numbers but also the adaptation of strategies and structures to effectively counter new threats. This issue of Western support takes on particular significance in this context, as it will undoubtedly affect the capabilities of the Ukrainian army in the future.
