United States of America are putting pressure on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky regarding lowering the conscription age in Ukraine, Serhiy Leshchenko, adviser to the head of the office of the President of Ukraine, said on his Telegram channel, reports UNIAN.
"American politicians from both parties are putting pressure on President Zelensky on the issue of why there is no mobilization of 18- to 25-year-olds in Ukraine. The partners' argument is this: when there was a US war in Vietnam, people were sent there from the age of 19. That is why the Americans are hinting: Western weapons alone are not enough, mobilization from the age of 18 is necessary. "President Zelensky has not broken down and continues to convince politicians from both parties to provide weapons without changing the conscription age," Leshchenko wrote.
