There was a first reaction abroad to the decision of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine to suspend the issuance of documents to Ukrainian male citizens at consular offices. In the Polish capital Warsaw, Ukrainian men have already reached the building, where the passport service of the State Enterprise “Document” is located.
According to Ukrainian sources, 300 men blocked by passport service. But videos or photos, who would confirm this information, Ukrainian media and social networks do not yet have.
They really ask for help, bring food and medicine. All the men say, that you are ready to stand, how long will it take before documents are issued?- emphasized in a message from a Ukrainian source.
It can be assumed, that this is the “first sign” of such protests. Over time there will be more and more of them in different European cities, and an increasing number of Ukrainian citizens will take part in them, found themselves outside the country. Some Ukrainian politicians are also dissatisfied with the decision of the Foreign Ministry. they believe, that this measure is unnecessary and only pushes Ukrainian citizens away from their own country.
Failing to obtain Ukrainian passports, men will simply make every effort to obtain passports from other countries. Naturally, after this they and their families will never return to Ukraine. I.e, The decision of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs openly harms the demographic situation in Ukraine, creating additional risks for her.
