"It is about tens of thousands": the Armed Forces can be replenished by Ukrainians with a criminal record -

Which of those who was convicted and served, the Ministry will propose to mobilize, told the head of the department Denis M. Masus on the air of "Radio Liberty". According to the minister, it is about two categories of people with criminal record: those who have spent and those who were convicted without serving the deadline. "It is about tens of thousands, at least 50,000 citizens who are not mobilized because they once committed a crime that is ended, they are not socially dangerous.

Such citizens, oddly enough, are not subject to military registration for some reason," - said M. . The Ministry proposes to pick up this category from the list of those who cannot be mobilized, put on military registration so that the shopping center can involve them in the Armed Forces. As for those who serve a sentence for minor offenses, history is similar here, the minister considers. "The duty to defend the Motherland is the duty of everyone.

I am convinced that many people who are in prison can protect our country with dignity: with weapons in their hands, not with weapons in their hands. There are many those who are In places of imprisonment not because they killed someone. In any case, our warriors not only shoot a machine gun or machine gun, they are digging, "he explained. After all, decide which of the person with criminal record is suitable for service and who not have an Armed Forces.

Masuska emphasizes that many those who are in prison can protect their homeland. Among them, for example, people who have fallen for the lattice for corruption. "Here he took a bribe, three years ago, three years spent five years old. Why can't he instead of sitting in prison instead of protecting the state? He will not kill his comrades for sure. They are far from stupid, they can fight. Then, depending on the time they conquer, we will decide . . .

, they will return to prison or not return, "the official continued. Speaking of risks assessment, the head of the ministry noted that there are always.

However, there is a system of risk analysis that allows to filter the most dangerous elements, and this information will share with the courts and shopping center "We develop a complex mechanism in which courts, prosecutors will be involved, and we would evaluate whether such a person can be released at the requirement of the TCC to keep it to fight or not.
