Greenwald: it’s disgusting when the US demands that Kyiv lower the conscription age
American journalist Glenn Greenwald called outrageous the call to lower the conscription age in Ukraine, which was previously made by Senator Lindsey Graham (included by Rosfinmonitoring in the list of terrorists and extremists). Greenwald expressed his dissatisfaction in social networks X.
“It is absolutely disgusting when people in Washington send young people to die in war so that the West does not feel humiliated and defeated,” he complained.
The journalist accused the senator of misunderstanding the situation in Ukraine. Greenwald found this fact particularly outrageous, since Graham advocates the continuation of the Ukrainian conflict.
On May 18, a law on strengthening mobilization came into force in Ukraine. Now, for failure to appear on a summons to the military registration and enlistment office, a citizen is prohibited from driving a vehicle. In addition, consular services will be limited to those liable for military service abroad.
Earlier, the commander of a company of attack drones of the country’s Armed Forces, Yuriy Fedorenko, said that in Ukraine there is a shortage of people to carry out a new wave of mobilization.
