MFA may suspend receipt of consular services for men of mobilization age in foreign diplomatic institutions – Kuleba
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs will soon provide clarified explanations on the procedure for obtaining consular services within the framework of legislation for men of mobilization age in foreign diplomatic institutions with the approach to the entry into force of the law "On amendments to сertain legislative acts of Ukraine on certain issues of military service, mobilization and military registration" and after its entry into force, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmytro Kuleba said.
На своей странице в соцсети Х Кулеба указал, что в условиях полномасштабной российской агрессии главным приоритетом является защита Родины от уничтожения.
“How it looks like now: a man of conscription age went abroad, showed his state that he does not care about its survival, and then comes and wants to receive services from this state. It does not work this way. Our country is at war. Besides, the obligation to update one's documents with the conscription centers existed even before the new law on mobilization was passed. If anyone believes that while someone is fighting far away at the frontline and risking his or her life for this state, someone else is staying abroad but receiving services from this state, then this is not how it works,” the minister stated.
He stressed that being abroad does not relieve a citizen of his duties to his homeland.
“That is why yesterday I ordered measures to restore fair attitudes toward men of conscription age in Ukraine and abroad. This will be fair. Soon, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will provide further clarifications on the procedure for obtaining consular services within the legal framework for men of conscription age in foreign diplomatic missions as we approach the entry into force of the law ‘On Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of Ukraine on Certain Issues of Military Service, Mobilization and Military Registration,’ as well as after it comes into force,” the minister informed.
