those citizens who refuse mobilization

The scene takes place in the center of Odessa (Ukraine), Ukrainian soldiers use force to take away a young man who clearly refuses mobilization. Several videos of this kind are circulating on social networks. They have been authenticated and investigations are underway into possible abuse of power. In kyiv, these military patrols are worrying. A young man of thirty escapes mobilization as a civil servant. However, he still received a summons letter that literally panicked him. He absolutely does not imagine himself dying for Ukraine.

Legal and illegal means

Experts estimate that 100,000 soldiers would be killed, wounded or captured. Andrii Novak, lawyer, is a specialist in military matters. In dozens of clients ask him how to escape enlistment. “We are looking for legal means to postpone the mobilization. But, unfortunately there are illegal ways with corruption“, explains the lawyer. On average, 7,000 euros are necessary to escape mobilization. Dorothée Olliéric, special correspondent in kyiv, nuance: “If the enthusiasm has waned a little in the big cities, you should know that in the four corners of the country many volunteers are still joining the front line. […] Thousands of soldiers train for the great spring offensive.“
