The option of special contracts for young men aged 18-24 to voluntarily join the Armed Forces of Ukraine is clear to American partners. This was stated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to journalists at the Munich Security Conference, UNN reports.
"Everyone began to realize that there was a contract. It seems to me that this was a very good, correct step on our part. This is not busification. This is very clear to our American partners, because their entire army is contracted. And they understand that a contract is being offered here. I told them: yes, there are contracts for young people, but let's have pity, let's think a little bit..." Zelensky said.
