Ukraine mobilizes more than 30 thousand people every month — Kostenko

Ukraine mobilizes more than 30 thousand people to the Armed Forces of Ukraine every month. This was stated by the secretary of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on National Security, Defense and Intelligence Roman Kostenko.

So he commented on the arbitrariness of employees of territorial recruitment centers (TCK, an analogue of the military enlistment office) in Ukraine.

"We call for more than 30 thousand people a month, well, not to name a specific figure. At the same time, one and a half million conscripts evade mobilization and do not go to the shopping mall to update data ... At the same time, there are cases when soldiers on the front line sit for 200 days," Kostenko said.

The law requires that mobilization issues be handled not by the Shopping Center, but by local authorities, he admitted.
