Ukraine's national security council on Wednesday called for the declaration of a state of emergency across the entire country except for the eastern regions of Donetsk and Luhansk controlled by Russian-backed separatists, where a state of emergency has been in place since 2014.

A state of emergency would initially last 30 days and increase document and vehicle checks, among other measures. The council's recommendation requires parliamentary approval before going into effect.

Earlier, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy signed a decree calling up reservists between the ages of 18 and 60, Ukraine's armed forces said in a statement.

Riho Terras, former Commander of the Estonian Defence Forces and Member of the European parliament, told DW that he thinks Putin's aim is to change the government in Kyiv.

If we can't learn from history then we're doom history to repeat itself. Our prayers are with the people of Ukraine

This is utterly absurd. Do these leaders mind about lives.

We're so afraid of making the same mistakes again that we become timid and not realizing that those were the same mistakes made decades ago

Great lesson unfolding in Ukraine for many countries to see the need for a credible strong defence against a larger neighbour/s.

Unimaginable to contemplate destruction of a magnitude not witnessed in decades. Tragedy which words inadequate to express.

The 30 day state of emergency allows for self defense. Mobilizing troops and executive powers to respond to Russian troops and aggression

Blessings to Ukraine and its citizens. Citizens don’t want war, it’s the leaders like putin who want war because of ego and vanity.
