Ukrainian politicians are openly calling on women to fight because they are not going to let their dear ones to do so, Ukrainian politician and former MP Volodymyr Oleynyk tells Sputnik.
“All those politicians work for the propaganda machine and get money for it. And when they talk about women at the frontline, they don’t mean their wives, sisters, and daughters but instead refer to poor women whose mobilized husbands have been killed. That's the difference.”
“Let them set an example (Zelensky's wife at the helm of a battalion, for example) instead of urging other women to go to the battlefield.”
