Danilov: in the near future we will decide on the mobilization of another 500 thousand people
Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine Alexey Danilov commented on the statement of the country’s President Vladimir Zelensky at a press conference on December 19 that the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine asked him to mobilize an additional 450-500 thousand people, which would cost 500 billion hryvnia.
According to the Ukrainian News publication, Danilov noted that the issue of mobilizing another 500 thousand Ukrainians into the army was raised at the last four meetings of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief Headquarters.
“The country’s authorities intend to find an answer to this in the near future,” Danilov said.
According to him, the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine and the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine have their own vision of the issue of mobilizing 500 thousand people, but the final decision will be made by the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine. Danilov confirmed that the announced figure is indeed necessary for the military, but he called the discussion about additional mobilization difficult.
