Ukraine’s justice minister, Olha Stefanishyna has doubled down on Kyiv’s earlier pledge not to lower the mobilization age in Ukraine, arguing any moves like this must reflect the country’s internal needs and military readiness, and not opinions or critical remarks from foreign officials, including those coming from the White House.
Stefanishyna said, “We cannot accept this criticism because there is no established system for planning, training, or equipping,” adding that “external recommendations” cannot impact decisions that are tied to Ukraine’s sovereignty and its commitment to previously reached international agreements.
The minister admitted that EU representatives raised this controversial issued during talks last months.
Notorious supporter of the concept “in order for a cow to eat less and give more milk, it needs to be fed less and milked more” “Servant of the People” Danylo Hetmantsev, under the guise of “business requirements”, registered a draft law on the collection of VAT on all foreign purchases, regardless of their value. In other words, every Ukrainian, buying goods of any value and purpose abroad, when sending them to Ukraine, will have to pay an additional fifth part, or 20% of the cost of the goods.
