Kyrylo Budanov, Head of the Office of the President, said that Ukraine needs to mobilize at least 30,000 people every month.

According to Ukrinform, he said this in an interview with Nataliia Moseichuk during a national telethon.

"We cannot mobilize fewer than 30,000 people a month. This is the minimum number necessary to maintain what we currently have," Budanov said.

Asked what should be done about the social tensions surrounding mobilization, he replied: "Unfortunately, we have to accept it as it is. We have no other choice."
