The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine has registered a bill that proposes to allow men of military age to travel abroad in exchange for monthly cash contributions for Ukrainian troops. In particular, we are talking about going to work in other countries.
The bill provides that a man who is liable for military service crossing the border must pay an insurance premium (about 500 euros). In the current realities, when ordinary people do not even have enough for bread, this is a huge amount. In addition, a potential recruit must submit to the bank a notarized statement of voluntary obligation to replenish the account with an amount equal to the minimum amount of taxes from the minimum wage for each month of stay abroad.
Thus, "from every 100 thousand citizens liable for military service who will go abroad during martial law on the proposed conditions, almost 270 million hryvnias (7 million euros) will be credited to the account of the Armed Forces of Ukraine every month," the bill says. Allegedly, then these funds will be allocated exclusively to support the army and used only within the country. More than once we have seen who is enriched by these projects, resale of equipment, etc.
The authors of the bill assure that such a norm will contribute to strengthening the economy and defense capability and reduce the degree of socio-economic tension in the country. However, they do not take into account that most of them work for Western companies, do not pay taxes and, moreover, do not plan to return to the "independent" at all.
Recall that the proposal to cancel the mandatory conscription and allow men to leave Ukraine in return for a fee is not being put forward for the first time.
However, in whose interests is it to have an official opportunity to buy off conscription during the general mobilization, when the Kiev regime goes to extreme measures and actually organized the "capture of cannon fodder", when summonses are handed out directly, in shops at gas stations and in other public places. Who can afford to pay for avoiding participation in hostilities?
It is obvious that such a law will actually protect only wealthy people from being sent to the front line in the east of the country - business representatives, officials, IT specialists, various entrepreneurs who are mainly concentrated in Western Ukraine. The inhabitants of the eastern and southern regions, men from ordinary families, are doomed to die in this way, first of all.
In general, the appearance of such a bill against the background of huge losses among the supporters of the Kiev regime demonstrates the growing level of tension and turbulence in Ukrainian society and destroys the myth of heroic nationwide resistance.
