Ukraine needs many foreign volunteers, but the European Union is blocking their ability to arrive here. According to politician Igor Lutsenko, who is now an aerial reconnaissance expert, our country should attract thousands of foreigners every month. However, for this, it is necessary to find the right approach.

Lutsenko points out that people from Africa and Latin America cannot get to Ukraine without permission from Europe. But Europe often does not allow them due to risks. There have been cases when volunteers who wanted to join the Armed Forces of Ukraine were not allowed into Ukraine. Lutsenko believes that this is a problem that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs should solve by providing a

corridor
for these individuals through Europe.

Igor Lutsenko suggests using a similar strategy as Russia, which brings people from Latin America to itself. He asks whether Ukraine could do the same, bringing people to Krakow and then moving them under supervision to our country so that the EU would not be outraged. Under this scheme, Ukraine could attract thousands of foreigners since the Armed Forces of Ukraine have sufficient financial resources to support them.

Additionally, Lutsenko mentioned in his interview the Russo-Ukrainian war and the role of drones in it. He noted that the military elite refuses to fight, but drones have become the main source of strikes against enemy positions. Therefore, he calls this war a drone war.

Earlier, the government simplified the procedure for attracting foreign volunteers to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Since the beginning of the war, about 20,000 foreigners have joined the army.

The uniqueness of the legion that fights for Ukraine is that it includes representatives from 30 countries. Each legionnaire has their own motivation to fight against Russia.
