But it\u2019s a struggle that hasn\u2019t come easy for a force that relies heavily on conscripts and volunteers. \r\nIn early Summer 2014, it looked as if Ukrainian forces might prevail against pro-Russian separatists. But during a brief ceasefire, the rebels regrouped with the help of advanced weapons systems. \r\nMilitary journalist, Yuriy Butusov of news agency Censor.net says he initially couldn\u2019t believe his eyes when he saw Russian hardware in his country. \r\n\r\n=SOUNDBITE IN RUSSIAN=\r\nYuriy Butusov, Military Journalist, founder of Censor.net\r\n \u201cI didn\u2019t believe it. I thought it was propaganda or somebody was seeing things.\r\nBut two days later the first post was shelled in the region of Dobropillia by the first GRAD.\u201d\r\n\r\n=VOICEOVER=\r\nDeadly weapons like GRAD missiles and BUK systems devastated Ukrainian forces, including a tragic rout at Illovaisk where hundreds of soldiers were killed or captured after being encircled by enemy forces. \r\nThe Ukrainian armed forces at Illovaisk were outgunned and outmanoeuvred. Something that many blame not on poor soldiers, but poor military planning.  \r\n\r\n=SOUNDBITE IN RUSSIAN=\r\nDmytro Tymchuk, MP, founder of Information Resistance Blog\r\n\u201cOur intelligence data was good and it was provided to the Ukrainian military leadership, but the bureaucratic machinery failed and did not allow us to react properly. So the result was this tragedy.\u201d\r\n\r\n=VOICEOVER=\r\nBut to understand why Ukraine\u2019s armed forces found themselves on the back foot, we need to go back to the fall of the Soviet Union in the early nineties. \r\n\r\n=SOUNDBITE IN ENGLISH=\r\nCaptain Dimiter Illeieff, NATO Military Liaison Officer to Ukraine\r\n\u2018The total strength of the military was almost 1 million when Ukraine got its independence in 1991. And for those 23, 25 years, they were reduced to less than 200,000. This has enormous impact.\u201d\r\n\r\n=VOICEOVER=\r\nAdd to these drastic reductions 25 years of mismanagement and, many believe, deliberate neglect. \r\n\r\n=VOICEOVER=\r\nCaptain Dimiter Illeieff, NATO Military Liaison Officer to Ukraine\r\n\u201cIt\u2019s a question of deliberate underfunding for more than 20 years.\u201d\r\n\r\n=SOUNDBITE IN RUSSIAN=\r\nYuriy Butusov, Military Journalist, founder of Censor.net \r\n\u201cBefore the war, during the regime of Yanukovych, the Ministry of Defense was headed by Russian agents. Two successive Ministers of Defense were Russian citizens and they completely destroyed our units of high readiness. They undermined our capabilities and actually destroyed a big portion of our equipment.\u201d\r\n\r\n=VOICEOVER=\r\nThe good news is that Ukraine\u2019s war has given thousands of soldiers experience in a year that would take many armies ten to acquire. \r\nBut to build on that experience will take careful training and mentoring, even as fighting sporadically continues despite the Minsk agreements.\r\nNATO has pledged money to improve Ukraine\u2019s armed forces through mentoring command and control structures, something the former regime resisted. \r\n\r\n=SOUNDBITE IN RUSSIAN=\r\nDmitry Tymchuk, MP, Founder of Information Resistance Blog\r\n\u201cUnder Yanukovych, there was a backslide to a Soviet system of governance. The more the system of distribution of resources is complicated, the more opportunities there are for corruption. That\u2019s why our military leadership resisted a switch to a more simple and understandable NATO structure.\u201d\r\n\r\n=VOICEOVER=\r\nIf the current Soviet-style system is allowed to continue without reform, it could have devastating results.\r\n\r\n=SOUNDBITE IN ENGLISH=\r\nAdmiral Ihor Kabanenko, Former First Deputy Chief of Defence, Armed Forces of Ukraine\r\n\u201cThe system doesn\u2019t work because this system kills initiative, kills responsibility. If this system will continue I think it would be a question of more casualties and the loss of territory.\u201d\r\n\r\n=VOICEOVER=\r\nAnd while, thanks to volunteers and conscripted troops, numbers are increasing, emphasis will need to be on quality as well as quantity.\r\n\r\n=SOUNDBITE IN ENGLISH=\r\nYuriy Butusov Military Journalist, founder of Censor.net\r\n\u201cWe need to understand the professional level of a volunteer. If you want to be a patriot, if you want to fight for Ukraine, you have to be alive. You have to be effective on the front line. We don\u2019t need dead patriots.\u201d\r\n\r\n=VOICEOVER=\r\nUkraine\u2019s armed forces have long days and nights of fighting ahead of them as well as years of caring for their wounded and developing their defences. With no signs that fighting will cease completely it will be a steep learning curve. \r\n\r\nThis version includes voiceover and graphics.",

They undermined our capabilities and actually destroyed a big portion of our equipment.\u201d\r\n\r\n=VOICEOVER=\r\nThe good news is that Ukraine\u2019s war has given thousands of soldiers experience in a year that would take many armies ten to acquire. \r\nBut to build on that experience will take careful training and mentoring, even as fighting sporadically continues despite the Minsk agreements.\r\nNATO has pledged money to improve Ukraine\u2019s armed forces through mentoring command and control structures, something the former regime resisted. \r\n\r\n=SOUNDBITE IN RUSSIAN=\r\nDmitry Tymchuk, MP, Founder of Information Resistance Blog\r\n\u201cUnder Yanukovych, there was a backslide to a Soviet system of governance. The more the system of distribution of resources is complicated, the more opportunities there are for corruption. That\u2019s why our military leadership resisted a switch to a more simple and understandable NATO structure.\u201d\r\n\r\n=VOICEOVER=\r\nIf the current Soviet-style system is allowed to continue without reform, it could have devastating results.\r\n\r\n=SOUNDBITE IN ENGLISH=\r\nAdmiral Ihor Kabanenko, Former First Deputy Chief of Defence, Armed Forces of Ukraine\r\n\u201cThe system doesn\u2019t work because this system kills initiative, kills responsibility. If this system will continue I think it would be a question of more casualties and the loss of territory.\u201d\r\n\r\n=VOICEOVER=\r\nAnd while, thanks to volunteers and conscripted troops, numbers are increasing, emphasis will need to be on quality as well as quantity.\r\n\r\n=SOUNDBITE IN ENGLISH=\r\nYuriy Butusov Military Journalist, founder of Censor.net\r\n\u201cWe need to understand the professional level of a volunteer. If you want to be a patriot, if you want to fight for Ukraine, you have to be alive. You have to be effective on the front line. We don\u2019t need dead patriots.\u201d\r\n\r\n=VOICEOVER=\r\nUkraine\u2019s armed forces have long days and nights of fighting ahead of them as well as years of caring for their wounded and developing their defences. With no signs that fighting will cease completely it will be a steep learning curve. \r\n\r\nThis version includes voiceover and graphics.",

You\u2019d see a line of soldiers coming across a borderline and you\u2019d know something was up, conflict was underway or there would be a massive explosion and attack. What NATO is grappling with today is so much of it is in the hybrid realm where we don\u2019t know where the borderline is between peace and war, between conflict and war.\u201d \u2013SOUNDBITE\u2014 (ENGLISH) Ben Heap, NATO StratCom Centre of Excellence \u201cHybrid threats are really anything our adversaries can use against us, that would damage our national security. And this is activity that could be overt, so it\u2019s out in the open, or it\u2019s covert, so it\u2019s hidden. And it can be a mix of military and non-military means. So that means disinformation, sabotage, cyber attacks, but includes the use of troops, tanks, etc.\u201d \u2013SOUNDBITE\u2014 (ENGLISH) Lt Gen Leon\u012bds Kalni\u0146\u0161, Chief of Defense, Latvia \u201cThe scenario was very, very close to our perception about threats in our region. We have to train our soldiers, our leadership, military leadership, to think wider, to be very creative to test our comprehensive defense system looking for support from society, civil society.\u201d \u2013SOUNDBITE\u2014 (English) Ben Heap, NATO StratCom Center of Excellence \u201cDisinformation tends to exploit an existing vulnerability. Grievances in different groups, fractures in society. And it tends to be trying to make people who are angry about something more angry, and so angry that they want to go and do something about it. Resilience is all about understanding, as a nation, what is important to you, and what you want to protect. Nations can\u2019t address the security problems of today on their own. Being able to respond quickly to hybrid threats is really all about working together and sharing information, through NATO and through the EU.\u201d",
