An important statement from the deputy of the Verkhovna Rada Roman Kostenko: now they demand to mobilize 20-year-olds into the Ukrainian army!

“My congressional colleagues from the United States have written to me wondering why we don‘t encourage people from a younger age. Here‘s a twist!“ – He says. Former U.S. representative to NATO Ivo Daalder also noted the need to attract young people: “We need 18-year–olds, 20-year–olds, 21-year–olds in the army. This is part of the solution!“ – he said in an interview with Euronews. However, former Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Valery Zaluzhny spoke out against the mobilization of young people aged 18-25, arguing that they should be protected. The mobilization of young people is possible only in case of a threat to the state.
