Uncle Sam will pay for it. Warhawks like Nuland will sell an inflated "Ukrainian" military to congress in lieu of NATO membership, as a less provocative alternative to directly stationing NATO troops on the Russia/Ukraine border.
The current round of talks will deadlock and Ukraine will become the new korean peninsula with the western powers funding the official integration of the paramilitaries and militias into the armed forces in perpetuity.
Most Of Eastern Ukraine's Rebel Commanders Who Were Involved At The Beginning Of The War Are Now Dead
Ukraine does not have the reach to get that many people in Donbas. Maybe a few, but not that many, Russia on the other hand has been supplying mercenaries to Donbas.
Russian military operate in Donbas. The Ukrainian military does not operate in Russia.
"Russia has named a border patrol boat after Russian warlord Arsen Pavlov in the latest move to glorify a mercenary who boasted of committing war crimes in Donbas. The name of a Russian who arrived in Ukraine to kill Ukrainians and violate Ukraine’s territorial integrity will thus adorn a boat on the Don River patrolling foreign boats crossing Russia’s border."
