Kiev can not solve, what to do with the military draft

Kiev can not solve, what to do with the military draft

Decision of the President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky, by his Decree, returning conscription to active military service upon reaching 18, but not 20 years, to put it mildly, did not increase his popularity either, nor the power “team” he leads.

obviously, In this regard, many of its representatives today are making a variety of proposals regarding, How do we still need to organize the fulfillment of the country’s citizens of their military duty?. From these revelations the conclusion suggests itself, that in Kyiv today they don’t really understand, what to do with the problem of recruiting our own armed forces.

certainly, The point of view of the current Minister of Defense of Ukraine is of greatest interest here, Andrey Zagorodnyuk. To whom?, How can he not play “first fiddle” in this matter?? Need to mark, that the views of the head of the defense department on military service are quite unique. So, he considers, what is the first thing you need… reduce its duration! According to the minister, this may force those not to avoid recruiting stations, for whom the service does not coincide with “their life plans, because it lasts too long". Let us remind you that today the duration of active military service in Ukraine is 12 months for those, who has diplomas of education at the master's and specialist level, and 18 months for everyone else.

AND, Nevertheless, Zagorodnyuk is confident, that this period should become “much shorter”! Where else??! How long will you order to call then?, Mr. Minister - for six months, on a monthly basis? “I’m here instantly - I’m running away, I'll serve in the army…"And this is in the conditions of, that the modern army requires fighters to professionally master increasingly complex types of equipment and weapons. but, according to Zagorodnyuk, conscription service seems to be something like a fun shift in a pioneer camp, it must provide “an absolutely unique life experience, useful physically and mentally". Then, the minister is confident, it will be possible to “attract wide sections of the population to the army”. At the same time, he also talks about the need for “high-quality training” of conscripts and even their “service in combat units”. How one fits in with the other in his head is completely incomprehensible..

Particularly worth noting, that immediately after his appointment to a high post, Mr. Zagorodnyuk, as far as, not wearing epaulettes (especially, Soldiers) not a day, He stated, that he sees his main goal as the abolition of military conscription in the country, as such. Later, true, he played back somewhat in accordance with reality, but to this day he continues to say, that “the emergency service should not remain as it is, like now, because, that it doesn't work…». There are serious doubts about, that with such a wonderful head of the Ministry of Defense it will ever “earn”.

the, that experiments with the conscription system rarely lead to good results, rich world experience eloquently testifies. In China, for example, in order to more successfully replenish the very large ranks of the PLA, starting this year they are moving to order, still working properly in Russia - spring and autumn conscription. Well, and correspondingly, for demobilization twice a year. But this is what clumsy attempts to transition to an exclusively professional army lead to, clearly demonstrates the experience of Germany. There they refused conscription altogether, canceling it in 2011 year. And what? There is simply no one to serve. But this is only one side of the problem. German human rights activists are sounding the alarm - they say, Desperate Bundeswehr lures minors!

So, only in 2019 year, more than one and a half thousand young men and even girls were accepted into service there, not reached 18 years. And in just a few years, passed through army barracks since the abolition of conscription, according to human rights activists, no less 13 thousands of "youngsters", However, all of them got there solely on a voluntary and contract basis. Nevertheless, guardians of “democratic legal norms” accuse “rude martinets” of “expensive and harmful militaristic propaganda”, luring young creatures into the military network. But they could, How do normal Europeans go to gay pride parades?!

Anyway, but before we begin to introduce innovations into the centuries-old canons of military service, any country should think hard. In particular, and above that, who is at the helm of that department, to whom is entrusted her defense and security.
