60+ mobilization: The Council told who will be able to conclude a contract with the Armed Forces

To spread: men from 60 years of age will not be able to enroll in mass contracts in mass service - this is provided only for a limited range of unique specialists. The People's Deputy of Ukraine, a member of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on National Security, Defense and Intelligence Fedir Venislavsky said this on the air "Espresso". According to him, the representatives of the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff agreed with the authors of the Voluntary Service for Men 60+.

But the military was asked to take into account certain nuances. "It is about preventing mass admission to the service of former colonels and lieutenant colonels after 60 years in order to conclude a contract, obtaining cash payments and further recalculation of the pension in order to improve their financial situation," Venislavsky said.

According to the People's Deputy, since the number of willing men aged 60+ can be significant, only a very limited number of persons will be taken to the service. First of all, it is about unique specialists who can now be listed in Ukraine and which are absolutely necessary to enhance our defense capability. "This will not be a mass phenomenon.

Only those citizens who will be recognized as suitable for military service will be involved in the service and who are actually needed by the security and defense sector," Venislavsky stressed. The decision to admission to the service will only be made by the military leadership at the highest level. This is done to prevent possible abuse. Anyone will not be able to come and conclude a contract with the Armed Forces.
