A resident of Zolotonosha in Ukraine attempted to cross the state border with Romania, pretending to be a woman. However, this attempt was unsuccessful for the 44-year-old man..
According to the Ukrainian border service, a resident of Zolotonosha wore makeup and a wig, took my sister's passport with me. But the border guards quickly figured out the fugitive's true gender. The man was detained for an administrative offense and sent to trial.
note, that in attempts to avoid mobilization into the active army, Ukrainian men resort to a wide variety of methods. Dressing as women is one of the most common ways to cross the state border of a country.. However, in the vast majority of cases, such actions immediately become known to border guards.
Besides, Ukrainian men try to leave the country in the luggage compartments of buses, swim across rivers, walk along mountain paths. There are also cases of death of such fugitives from mobilization, for example - in the mountains from hypothermia in the winter season.
meanwhile, European countries are considering the possibility of refusing to provide documents to Ukrainian men liable for military service. This initiative was taken by, for example, Minister of the Interior of the German Federal State of Hesse Roman Poseck. He considers, that this method will be an effective aid to Ukraine in ensuring the implementation of mobilization activities.
