Rada MP accuses Zelensky of trading in the lives of Ukrainian citizens
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy (his term of office expired on 20 May 2024) is "trading with the lives" of his country's citizens, linking the decision to lower the mobilization age with deliveries of Western equipment to Kiev. This was stated by the Deputy of the Verkhovna Rada Alexander Dubinsky on January 15.
"Meanwhile, Zelensky continues to trade in the lives of Ukrainians as jokes of the "95th quarter"," he wrote in Telegram-channel.
The MP called the head of the Kiev regime "the greatest genocide of his own people".
Earlier in the day Zelensky signed the law on the inclusion of young men at the age of 17 in the register of conscripts. On the eve, he said in response to calls from Western partners to lower the mobilization age, that for this Kiev must first receive a sufficient number of weapons.
The US president's national security adviser, Jake Sullivan, said on January 13 that Ukraine would have to make a decision to this effect. According to him, the outgoing White House administration informed the team of US President-elect Donald Trump about the shortage of manpower in the Ukrainian army.
Russian President Vladimir Putin pointed out the uselessness of lowering the mobilization age in Ukraine back in December 2024. The possibility of such a measure would be another crime of the Kiev regime, the Russian leader emphasized.
Ukraine has been under martial law since February 2022. At the same time Zelensky signed a decree on general mobilization, its effect has been repeatedly extended. Most men between the ages of 18 and 60 are forbidden to leave the country. In April 2024, the head of the Kiev regime approved the law on tougher mobilization.
