To win its war, Ukraine needs to draft more young soldiers, but some are trying to escape the call to arms. We talk to someone avoiding the draft and putting your questions to military expert Frank Ledwidge and DW correspondent Amien Essif. What do you think? Should Ukraine be allowed to force conscripts to fight?

Who's resisting? You mean who wants to live

No Ukrainian that currently escaped Ukraine wouldn’t want to fight for their country not in that condition. People don’t wanna die. That’s a fact.

NATO must be on the front line instead of on the sideline

Nobody wants to be sent to the meat grinder

Tough call, but that's part of citizenship. However, the rest of the Free-Dem World are responsible for these soldiers' survival.

Ukraine has been a mess since the 2014 obiden nuland kiev coup...

I personally am against constriction solely for the fact that if you don't want to fight, then you don't have to. I also understand democracy can't exist without it. I could never fight like what unkraine is going through. But I, as a front-line heathworker, can do other things to help. Everyone should be doing a part

[GerrardPique]

I don't get why should they fight for a comedian

US troops in 1917 in European campaign lost 317.000 soldiers in less then a year. I suppose that more then 500.000 Ukrainian soldiers died a less probably 500.000 Russians.
