Roman Kostenko , secretary of the parliamentary defense committee, says 500,000 recruits needed.

The goal had been to draft 200,000 , but he believes this falls short, aligning with former Commander-in-Chief Valery Zaluzhny ’s earlier recommendation.

President Volodymyr Zelensky estimates it would cost Ukraine 500 billion hryvnias.
