Khomchak noted that the cadets were interviewed and almost all were in favor of going to the event in full dress.
“99% of the girls present here are in favor of going in full dress uniform… Therefore, I think it would be better for us to think, discuss the issue now here with the girls, to hear, let’s say, the reverse side, ” the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine noted.
