The politician told what the situation was.
British Defense Secretary John Healey said that his son Alex, who is about thirty years old, is currently serving as an infantry reservist.
The publication The Telegraph.
He said his son's decision was because of what was happening in Ukraine. After the invasion began in February 2022, Alex told his father: “If I were Ukrainian, I would join the army today.” He soon decided to join the reserves.
“I hadn't said this before. But it was Ukraine, actually. So when Putin invaded in February 2022, we were having lunch the next day and he said to me: “Dad, if I were Ukrainian, I would join the army today.” And soon after that, he came to me and Mum and said: “I want to join the army. I want to be a reservist.” Here's what he did.
Recall that the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine reported that now in the “Reserve+” service you can apply for a deferment from mobilization online. The service is available to people with disabilities with a valid pension certificate, as well as to students, graduate students and doctoral students.
