Ukraine's defence forces are introducing a new model for the service of foreign military volunteers who will now have broader opportunities, including the right to choose a combat brigade, area and specifics of deployment.

Details: The Ground Forces said they are continuing to develop a system for recruiting and deploying foreign volunteers who choose to sign contracts and serve in the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The Ukrainian military explained that certain formats introduced in 2022 fulfilled their role during the most critical phase of the country's defence, allowing for the rapid integration of foreigners into the military. However, battlefield conditions, the structure of the defence forces and the needs of combat units have changed significantly.

Quote: "A new system for deploying foreign military personnel is being introduced. The key principle of the new model is the most effective use of their experience, motivation and professional skills in those units where they are most needed.

Foreign military volunteers who sign a contract with the Armed Forces of Ukraine will have broader opportunities for service, including the right to choose a combat brigade, area and deployment specifics based on their training, experience and preferences. This ensures better integration, equal opportunities with Ukrainian fighters and more rational use of human resources."
