Dmitry Litvin responded to the US call to lower the mobilization age to 18. According to him, Ukraine does not have enough weapons even for those already mobilized due to delays in the supply of aid.

Due to delays in the supply of military aid from Western partners, Ukraine does not have enough weapons to provide already mobilized soldiers. Thus, adviser to the president of Ukraine Dmytro Lytvyn commented on calls for lowering the mobilization age.  he wrote about this in the social network X, writes in UNN.

There is no point in hearing calls for Ukraine to lower the mobilization age, ostensibly in order to call more people, when we see that previously announced equipment does not arrive on time. Because of these delays, Ukraine does not have enough weapons to equip already mobilized soldiers.,

- the message says.

According to Lytvyn, Ukraine's partners have full access to data and can compare promises with real deliveries. 

We cannot expect that Ukraine will compensate for delays in logistics or indecision in supporting young guys at the front,

Litvin added.
