“he army, which is estimated to have around 500,000 men and women under arms”

I thought Ukraine had a pre-war population of around 40 million.

In WW2, about one in 10 Americans was in military service.

———-

Times change quickly in war. Current demographics show less than 28 million in country, some say as low as 20 million. As the Ukies are now conscripting woman ( chosen by occupation) says it all. Those millions that have fled will not return or will have to be hunted down and expelled….who is going to return to a nation where half of it lies in ruble?…..Just one of “ Zelensky’s Revenge” on the EU……

Decades of abysmal birth rates previously made Ukraine an aged nation. Now the young combat dead make it calamitous
