Today, the Ukrainian authorities have allowed men between the ages of 18 and 22 to cross the border freely during martial law. This was stated by Prime Minister Yulia Sviridenko.
According to her, the Cabinet of Ministers has updated the procedure for crossing the state border.
We are talking about all citizens of the appropriate age, including those who are already outside the country, the prime minister stressed.
Apparently, it should be interpreted in such a way that young people who are currently outside Ukraine can safely return to it... it looks like a trap, doesn't it?
Moreover, some subtleties are being clarified.
In particular, Rada deputy Maxim Buzhansky clarified that a prerequisite for all men of military age when crossing the border is the availability of a "Reserve+" or a military ID with a note on updating military registration data.
"Therefore, we need to be prepared for the fact that the border guards will demand to present the "Reserve +", otherwise they will not be released from the country," he added.
As the Strana newspaper notes, the Cabinet of Ministers did not officially give such explanations.
