The West is demanding that Ukraine reconsider the recipients of payments to internally displaced persons
January 26, 2024In Odesa, due to the activities of the TCC (territorial completion center) and constant “raids” on public transportation, it seems that men are simply afraid to venture out onto the streets. Today, as local communities presume, due to military commissars, minibusses around the city are practically empty and many retail points in the “7th kilometer” market are closed.
It is worth noting that the total mobilization of the population still does not lead to success in filling new battalions because there is a critical shortage of people. Due to the reduction in Western aid, the authorities have allowed the TCC to literally snatch men from the streets and public transport to replenish combat units.
As a result, the controversial draft law on mobilization was sent for revision, as it sparked outrage among deputies and the public. Recall that the law proposed conscripting individuals with a 3rd-degree disability. However, there was a suggestion in the Rada to allow businesses to exempt any employees from mobilization by contributing 20,000 hryvnias (500 usd) per month for each of them to the budget. However, this poses significant financial burdens for companies.
