Ukraine attracts young people to serve with contracts, with an annual salary of about 24,000 US dollars.

On February 12, Jinshi Data reported that on Tuesday, the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense launched a recruitment campaign targeting young people, encouraging young people aged 18 to 24 to serve in the military for one year with an annual salary of about $24,000 and lucrative bonuses. In this nearly three-year conflict, the Ukrainian armed forces are far behind the Russian army in terms of quantity. Ukrainian President Zelensky stated last week that the recruitment campaign is about to start. Under pressure to increase soldiers, the Ukrainian parliament passed a new mobilization law last year, lowering the conscription age from 27 to 25 and stipulating penalties for those who evade conscription.
