@kdc6884 This is do to their (seriuos) demografic problem. Since the fall of the USSr, people in Ukraine have been having less and less children, and now they have far more people 30-60 yo than people between 18-29. Even before the war, Ukraine lost, through emigration and lower birthrates 30% of its population in the last 3 decades....... If they send their (relatively) few young men to fight and die, they risk the next generational replacement, and to get destroyed in some years by a demografic implosion......even if they "win" the actuall war.....

@tadhgcronin175 Loyalty has to go both ways, and a lot of man in military age (the ones that would have to die in the trenches) feel that their country is not holding up to their end of the deal and has never done........ The fact that the sons of the rich and powerfull are in Monaco, Germany, ot the USA, living a lavish lifestyle, while the common man is send to suffer and die, also doesn`t help...... Most of them probably think that a pro-russian administration in their countries would be more or less similar to what they have now, and that with a lot of people from the loosing side beeing removed from power-positions, they can perhaps even improve their situation.....
