In addition, there was a report on the 18-24 contract program, and the first results of the program were presented.
"We will expand it: I was at the front on Saturday, there is a request from specific brigades, and we will respond positively to this request - there will be more brigades that will be able to accept young volunteer fighters. This experience should be expanded to the National Guard of Ukraine and border guard units. All effective units in the Defense Forces should be given every opportunity to develop and increase the potential of our state and our resilience," the President summarized.
