Call on Rada and Stop the Busification — Opinions of Kyiv Residents on Mobilization.
Kyiv residents unanimously assert that the approach to mobilization in Ukraine needs to change, as busification goes against the principles of democracy. Local residents are calling for a refusal to 'package men into buses', considering this practice unfair.
Kyiv Residents Against the Busification of Men
One resident notes: 'The TCC should not indiscriminately take people into buses. I believe that a person should have the opportunity to independently decide whether they are ready for service before being sent to the center. It should not be violence, I am sure.'
Of course, it is necessary. The TCC needs to stop publicly taking people into buses. I believe it should be by their own wish or through selection. Because they take such men off the street, and they know nothing and are cannon fodder.
Another resident, Karina, believes that mobilized men should be granted the right to choose which brigade they will serve in for the defense of the country.
I believe we should use mobilization methods, not busification. You cannot just take a person out of life and transport them to the TCC. A person should have the opportunity to express their desire regarding service, to give their health and life to the country or not, as this is a form of violence.
Ksenia also notes the need for changes in mobilization activities, suggesting that parliamentarians and police units with military experience should be involved in the defense of the country.
Of course, it is necessary. Mobilize both the Verkhovna Rada and the police and the TCC. More than 100 thousand police officers and 50 thousand TCC workers in Ukraine. Why? These are people with military experience who have undergone training. They can be involved and called up. Sixty-year-olds have no business there. Lowering the age limit is not a solution. 18-20 years old - these are still children. 25-45 years old - the best age.
Thus, Kyiv residents oppose the practice of busification of men and call for changes in the mobilization system, emphasizing the need to adhere to the principles of democracy and human rights protection.
