The first volunteers of the Ukrainian Legion are already on the territory of Ukraine, - ambassador

This was stated by the Ambassador of Ukraine to Poland, Vasyl Bodnar, in a comment to Radio Svoboda.

He noted that the training of the first volunteers will continue at Ukrainian training grounds. However, the diplomat did not specify how many volunteers had arrived in Ukraine.

According to Bodnar, the Ukrainian Legion is a success story that some politicians and Russian propaganda are trying to turn into a negative fact.

"The process (of recruitment - ed.), of course, we would like it to go faster, but it goes as it goes. We are working to ensure that this information is publicly accessible in all EU countries and possibly overseas. We can only stimulate voluntary encouragement, as it is an entirely voluntary unit. Our citizens who are being invited to it, I am convinced, will have the corresponding satisfaction from good training," added the ambassador.
