President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky stated that he does not support lowering the age of mobilization, considering it 'unfair talk' and 'political games.'
According to Zelensky, he has expressed this position both in public statements and in private conversations, commenting on his stance regarding the issue of mobilization age, which currently stands at 25 years.
'From some leaders, we heard signals that let's lower the age of mobilization. I believe that today this is an unfair conversation,' - said Zelensky.
The president emphasized that the war under modern conditions is different due to the use of modern weapons and technologies, so the main priority should be the technological rearming of the army.
Volodymyr Zelensky also expressed his disappointment regarding the granting of licenses for the production of air defense systems and the closing of the sky in Ukraine.
