February 26, 2024All police officers are exempt from mobilization.
This was stated by the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, Igor Klimenko, in an interview, opposing the idea of sending police officers to the front lines.
“What distinguishes the guys in the police from the guys in the civilian sector? Who will protect the people, investigate crimes, respond to calls? We are being provoked by armchair experts with a thousand thoughts – but who will be fighting?” – said Klimenko.
It is worth noting that earlier, the head of the National Police of Ukraine, Ivan Vygovsky, stated that the idea of sending 100,000 police officers to the front lines is unfeasible, as approximately that many are currently employed in policing duties.
Vygovsky also mentioned that mobilizing police officers to the front lines could worsen the crime situation in Ukraine. According to him, efforts are currently being made to recruit individuals aged 18-25 into the police force, as they are not yet subject to mobilization, in order to preserve the mobilization reserve.
