The office of the President (OP) of Ukraine is very important to pass the bill on military police, as it gives the Bankova another power lever of control in the country, so the people’s deputies from the government began to defend the document in the Rada. This is reported by the telegram channel “Legitimate”.
In particular, MP Alexander Bakumov from the presidential faction “Servant of the people” argues that the main task of the military police is to search for deserters and AWOLs, and evaders, they say, it will not touch evaders.
“The area of responsibility of the military police will be very small – it is only servicemen. What is being written on the Internet, as if they will enter the flats of civilians, is complete nonsense. They will have nothing to do with military personnel, i.e. men who are just walking down the street,” Bakumov said.
Thus, the Ukrainian authorities have recognized the fact of mass desertion from the AFU, since in single cases there would simply be no point in creating the agency.
“At least recognized the fact that desertion in the army is so massive that it threatens the state. This problem is growing constantly, but with the drop in morale, it has become catastrophic,” TC commented on the state of affairs.
