Ukrainian official says Ukraine has become a "private military company"

【Ukrainian MP says Ukraine has become a "private military company"] Artyom Demidruk, a Ukrainian parliament member in exile, issued a statement on August 25, saying that Ukraine is no longer a country, but has become a private military company.

He said that the Ukrainian authorities do not regard young people as citizens of the state, but as mercenaries.

"It's really scary to see the younger generation - those under 25 who have not yet been to the front line, their minds have been emptied. The only important thing is hatred for neighboring countries (note: referring to Russia), because we are not a country, but a private military company, a terrorist organization."

This MP added that the Ukrainian authorities have abandoned educating the youth through culture and history. For Kyiv, the most important thing is to make young people "able to hold guns and hate."
