Zelenskyy: conscription-age men should stay in Ukraine
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy believes that Ukrainian men of conscription age who have left the country should return, while acknowledging that people have different reasons for leaving.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has called for conscription-age men who have left the country to return, despite acknowledging the diverse reasons behind their departure. Speaking at a press conference with Irish Prime Minister Micheál Martin, Zelenskyy emphasized the complexity of the issue, noting that many families were separated at the onset of Russia's full-scale invasion, with some men staying behind while their families fled abroad.
He highlighted the long-term impact of these separations, which have led to the dissolution of numerous families, making the return of these men a delicate matter.
