The inclination of young people to serve their countries in the armed forces must increase, the general said.
Mobilization in Ukraine is developing more. In particular, progress was achieved by lowering the age of conscription to 25 years. This was said by the Commander-in-Chief of NATO Allied Forces in Europe, General Christopher Cavoli, on Thursday, July 18, Voice of America wrote.
“Ukraine has problems with how to use its manpower, doesn’t it? So, there is a group of people who have to work in factories, in fields, to participate in combat operations. And this is the work of the Ukrainian government To determine this balance recently, as you know, they lowered the conscription age by two years.
He noted that building the power of the army consists of three components: people, equipment and training.
“In terms of technology, a lot depends on the West, but everything is fine in terms of training, the Union and NATO are committed to helping the Ukrainians train a large number of people,” said Cavoli.
At the same time, he emphasized that the issue of replenishment of the army is strategic not only for Ukraine, but also for the member countries of the Alliance.
“Our human resources are not limited And we, looking to the future, must increase the passion of young people to serve their countries in the armed forces,” he concluded.
The Verkhovna Rada is developing a bill on the introduction of economic mobilization parallel to economic reservation.
We remind you that on May 18, the updated mobilization law went into effect. All military men and women ages 18-60 must update their credentials within 60 days, up to and including July 16th.
Later, the Verkhovna Rada announced that a record number of Ukrainians had been mobilized in May. In this regard, President Vladimir Zelensky confirmed that the mobilization did indeed increase last month.
