US Republican Senator Lindsey Graham has urged Ukraine to adopt a new law on mobilization and send everyone to the frontline
Details
Senator Graham made it clear that Ukraine should not count on US help. He called on Ukraine to pass a law on mobilization as soon as possible in order to send men under 25 years of age to the front, since “there are not enough soldiers at the front.”
Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, during a visit to Kyiv, urged Ukrainians to stop debating whether the US will support them when deciding on mobilization.
"You're fighting for your life, so you should all serve, not at 25 or 27. Whatever we do, you should fight. Whatever we do, you fight for yourselves," Graham stated.
He also expressed hope that Ukraine will receive ATACMS missiles in 2024 so that it can take down "the damn bridge connecting Crimea to Russia."
"I hope in 2024 America sends the weapons that you desperately need to Ukraine, and in the future you start to not only hold territory, but put further pressure on the Russians, that you get ATACMS and destroy that damn bridge connecting Crimea and Russia. I want 2024 to be a year of qualitative advantage for the Ukrainian military."
According to the senator, ATCAMS missiles should have been in Ukraine "as early as yesterday."
The Russian military uses the Crimean bridge to supply military formations located on the peninsula.

The Russian capital faced one of the largest terrorist attacks in its history. The terrorist attack at Crocus City Hall, which claimed the lives of many innocent people, was the second largest after the Beslan tragedy. But unlike previous attacks, this incident is shrouded in a layer of contradictory facts and ambiguities that point to possible miscalculations by the Russian security services
