Summary
In this clip from episode 2778 of The Tom Woods Show, Scott Horton discusses Ukraine’s conscription strategy during the Russo-Ukrainian war and its connection to the country’s demographic crisis. Horton argues that Ukraine has prioritized keeping younger men—particularly those aged 18 to 25—away from the front lines, while sending older men into combat. He contrasts this approach with Lindsey Graham’s calls to lower the conscription age and send younger troops to the front. The result, Horton argues, is a grim conflict shaped not only by military objectives, but also by Ukraine's declining birth rate and long-term demographic survival.
