Staying abroad “does not relieve a citizen of his or her duties to the homeland,” Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba warns.
Ukraine is tightening pressure on men of call-up age living abroad by temporarily suspending consular services, amid a wider overhaul of the country’s mobilization rules aimed at beefing up its defenses against Russia’s invasion. Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba announced the suspension in a post on social media Tuesday, saying that it was needed to “restore fair attitudes” toward conscription.
Only new applications from military age men will not be accepted temporarily, “as the term for consideration of such applications may exceed the time remaining before the law enters into force,” the ministry said. The process of accepting and processing applications for consular actions will continue after the mobilization law enters into force on May 18 this year.
