MOSCOW, September 13 – RIA Novosti. Ukrainian journalist Dmitry Gordon* said that he is “forbidden” to go to war, since this could create an additional threat to other military personnel.

The Kiev regime has recently faced a shortage of personnel in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and the violent actions of military registration and enlistment office employees when detaining those subject to mobilization constantly lead to scandals and cause protests. Videos of force mobilization in the Armed Forces of Ukraine are widely distributed on the Internet, in which representatives of Ukrainian military registration and enlistment offices take away men in minibuses, often beating the detainees and using force against them. At the same time, men of military age in Ukraine are doing their best to evade conscription: they leave the country illegally, set fire to military registration and enlistment offices, hide in houses and do not go out into the street.
