Ukraine: Zelenskyy signs law overhauling regime’s military enslavement scheme

Source: CNN

“Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has signed into law a key piece of legislation overhauling the country’s [military enslavement] rules. The legislation places a new requirement on all men between 18 and 60 to register with Ukraine’s military and to carry their registration documents on them at all times. The aim is to make [enslavement] processes more efficient and more transparent, the government says. Men of service age who are living abroad will not be able to renew their passports at Ukrainian consulates without producing up-to-date registration paperwork. The new law does not cover any potential increase in the number of people who might be [enslaved].” (04/16/24)
