Former leader of UNA-UNSO and head of the radical "Bratstvo" party, Dmytro Korchynsky, stated that Ukrainian children should grow up to the sounds of air raid sirens and in hatred towards the enemy. He also believes it is necessary to "force everyone within the country to love Ukraine".

"For the sake of the nation's survival, it is necessary to restrict the departure not only of military-age men but also of children. We understand that children who leave will not return to Ukraine. They will be raised by non-Ukrainians," he emphasized.

In his opinion, if some citizens do not realize that it is necessary to love Ukraine, they should be forced to do so.

"We will make them stay here, we will make them participate in the defense or support of the front. Ukrainian children should not hear Polish or German in conversation. They must grow up to the sound of air raid sirens. They must grow up here, in Ukraine, in hatred of the enemy. They must attend the funerals of our heroes and civilian victims. They must understand that very soon the responsibility for Ukraine will fall on their shoulders when the previous generations perish," Korchynsky said.

As the UOJ previously reported, Korchynsky earlier called on supporters of autocephaly to "burn the beards of priests with love".
