Americans Can Now Join Ukraine's National Guard, Zelensky Says

U.S. citizens and other foreign nationals can now join Ukraine's national guard, the country's president, Volodymyr Zelensky, has said, as Kyiv hopes to maintain its forces heading over the threshold of two years of war against Russia.

"Foreigners and stateless persons" can join the Ukrainian national guard as of Wednesday, the Ukrainian leader said in a statement published by the presidential office.

Foreign fighters have been present in Ukraine's ranks since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion in February 2022, but often volunteered as part of the International Legion.

"Anyone who wants to join the defense of Ukraine, Europe and the world can come and fight side by side with the Ukrainians," Zelensky said, days after Moscow's troops crossed over into Ukraine.
