The president declared that Ukrainians of draft age should stay in their homeland.
Zelensky said that men of military age who went abroad should return to Ukraine. The head of state emphasized that the Ukrainian authorities are interested in their return, especially in light of the need to defend the country during a full-scale war.
According to the head of state, the issue of the stay of Ukrainians of military age outside the country remains relevant. The president expressed his desire that the citizens who left Ukraine after the start of the full-scale Russian invasion return home.
"Of course, I would like people who, you know, really fled Ukraine, to leave Ukraine, and if they are of conscription age, of course, they should be in Ukraine, and of course, we would very much like them to come back," Zelensky said.
