Fedorov starts Ukraine's massive military service reform

Original version ·

It turns out you can't run a modern war with Soviet-era bureaucracy, so Fedorov is finally trying to fix the actual system.

The first stage of the reform is focusing on things that actually matter to people on the ground: boosting pay, setting clear service timelines, and completely rethinking recruitment.

For years, the system relied on outdated bureaucratic machinery. Now, they want to treat military service more like a professional career. The goal is to replace the depressing old enlistment process with modern, smart recruiting, so people don't feel like they are falling into a black hole with no visible end date.

A military that respects its soldiers' time and wallets might actually be a wild enough concept to work.
