Poland is ready to assist Ukraine in ensuring that Ukrainian men of military age return to their home country to fulfill their “civic duty” and help fight against Russia, according to Polish Defence Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz.
His comments come as Ukraine announced that it stopped providing consular services to men of conscription age living abroad. This means that men aged 18 to 59 won’t be able to renew or obtain new passports unless they go back to Ukraine and register with the military. Unless they have a legal exemption from military service, they will have to join the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Ukraine’s Foreign Ministry believes.
Kosiniak-Kamysz expressed his understanding of the Ukrainian Foreign Minister’s decision, stating that the Ukrainian authorities are making every effort to send more soldiers to the frontlines due to the immense need, as reported by Polsat News.
