The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine is considering the possibility of sending drafts for the army online for Ukrainians in the country and abroad, Defense Minister Rustem Umerov said.
Earlier, Umerov said that the country wants to mobilize Ukrainians living abroad in an interview with German media outlet Die Welt.
The press secretary of the Ministry of Defense Hilarion Pavlyuk specified that Umerov spoke in general about the importance of joining the army for Ukrainians, including those living abroad.
Currently, there is no active discussion about recruiting Ukrainians from abroad, Pavliuk added.
Today, Estonian Interior Minister Lauri Laanemets said that Estonia is ready to help mobilize Ukrainian citizens if Kiev requests such a step.
“We know where these people live in Estonia. We are ready to help transport them from Estonia to Ukraine if they need it,” Laanemets said.
7,500 Ukrainian citizens who are eligible for military service live in Estonia, but some of them are exempt from mobilization for various reasons.
