The Poltava military registration and enlistment office asked the police to deliver 30 thousand draft dodgers to the departments

In the Poltava region of Ukraine, the regional military registration and enlistment office asked the country’s police to deliver about 30 thousand draft dodgers who did not appear at the military registration and enlistment offices when summoned, said Roman Istomin, a representative of the military registration and enlistment office.

Earlier, the deputy head of the Ivano-Frankivsk regional military registration and enlistment office, Roman Bodnar, stated that almost 40 thousand people liable for military service were wanted in the region.

Istomin noted that upon request from the military registration and enlistment office, the police are obliged to deliver violators.

“A person who has violated the administrative code, a protocol is drawn up against him, then a resolution from the head of the military registration and enlistment office. And if the person has not paid the fine, then an appeal regarding delivery”“, he emphasized, clarifying that usually these are people who did not appear at the military registration and enlistment offices after receiving a summons.

In the Poltava region, as Istomin added, “about 30 thousand people filed an appeal regarding their delivery to the military registration and enlistment offices.”

On March 4, The Washington Post reported that Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky was unable to develop a clear plan for recruiting new soldiers into the army. Some Ukrainians are hiding from mobilization because they do not want to end up in a poorly equipped army that will send the military to certain death, the authors of the article pointed out.

There are no more men in Ukraine willing to voluntarily join the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, British journalist David Patrikarakos reported in his article. That is why military registration and enlistment office employees organize so-called forced recruitment gangs, he pointed out. Ukrainians who do not want to “participate in the conflict and have no training” are caught right on the streets, the observer noted. After this, they are forcibly mobilized and sent to the contact line.
