Who are Ukraine’s men who don’t want to fight in the war? – BBC News
Ukraine defence officials have described claims of corruption within its army recruitment as “shameful and unacceptable”.
It comes as President Volodymyr Zelensky recently sacked every regional head of recruitment in Ukraine after widespread allegations against officers in the system, including bribe-taking and intimidation.
Ukraine constantly needs to replace the tens of thousands who’ve been killed or injured in the war.
However, some men don’t want to fight. Thousands have left the country, sometimes after bribing officials, and others are finding ways of dodging recruitment officers.

Social media giant Meta has agreed to a $18bn (£13.3bn) settlement with US states and territories to resolve claims that Facebook and Instagram harmed children.
A California judge approved the settlement, which Meta must pay to 48 states, plus the District of Columbia and three US territories, marking the company’s largest payment over child safety litigation to date.
Meta will also implement a host of changes aimed at better protecting kids online, which the states had demanded, including default daily time limits and night-time blocks.
Meta has denied any wrongdoing as part of the settlement and said on Wednesday that the payment it agreed to “will be distributed in annual instalments over a 10-year period”.

Prime Minister Andy Burnham has told the BBC that PC Andrew Harper’s killers will remain behind bars as he announces changes to the early release scheme aimed at easing prison overcrowding.
In an exclusive interview with BBC Breakfast, Burnham said anyone convicted of manslaughter will be excluded from changes brought in under the Sentencing Act, which would have made the killers eligible for early release.
Burnham said extra prison spaces would be created by deporting “hundreds” of foreign prisoners and releasing some inmates serving indefinite sentences.

Bbc propagates gender equality, leftism, femenism and defends females from any kind of sexism, but demands from men to go and die at war, or just does not treet Ukrainian males as victims of sexism and discrimination, when they are getting forced to die against their own will just because they are MEN. They treat them as they must be killed at war just because they are men, but they are AVOIDING it. How stupid. It is like Iranian females will not be called as victims of discrimination and sexism, but just avoiders from obligations. So females traditional obligations – sexism, but males – not.

It is inhuman to ask polish minority to fight for Ukraine. This land was stolen. As well for Romanian minority. They want to be part of Poland and Romania. North Bucovina and south Basarabia were stolen from Romania. Why should they fight for the invader?

They said nothing that matter. For instance didn't show one of hundreds videos there people are just taken from the streets and put in vans to be drafted. Basically there is very few man left who want to fight in ukraine army volunteerly today all people who wanted to enscript did it earlier. People are just being hold in the hands of criminal government and a lot of people don't trust it and just hide from draftmen and there are even videos people fight with draftmen. So BBC bullshit propaganda as usual.

Ukrainian man here. I usually don't comment but this is an exception. I urge you to not believe what our and russian politicians say. Both parties lie. Our own government does in fact oppress us. The law does not work here. The whole government is corrupted and a lot of them have become millionaires during this war. Men 18-60 years are not allowed to leave the country despite the fact that there is no such law in our constitution. The "laws" that our governments makes do not have real legal base. We are in prison here, just like people of North Korea. Ukrainians want peace. We want the war to end. We don't want to surrender but we also don't want more of our brothers and sisters getting killed. However, the war will continue since the current government of Ukraine will rather choose to have all of Ukrainian people killed in this war than try to accomplish real peace. The problem is, even though our politicians are stealing all the money that other countries provide for humanitarian and other types of aid, I can assure you if not international help and Ukrainian soldiers I wouldn't be alive right now. Please do NOT fall under russian propaganda and continue to support Ukraine. But while supporting us, especially if the money are involved – MONITOR THE MONEY. DO NOT BELIEVE THEY WON'T BE STOLEN BY A CORRUPTED POLITICIAN. Thank you and please stand with Ukraine. The majority of us also hates our own government. Not only men aren't allowed to leave the country, we are also getting hunted here by those who want to get us drafted (read = get paid lots of money for a ukrainian man in their army department, then get more money after we are killed on the frontier) and the government constantly makes the situation worse by increasing taxes and making unacceptable laws that harm their citizens but benefit the political elites. Let's not forget the hypocrisy of the politicians who live lavishly while ordering common people to die "For Ukrainian Freedom". We are not free and never were. But we don't need other country like russia to save us. The war that russia has started on our land is unacceptable and russians are the ones to blame it.

If your country is invaded by an aggressor then as a man you should not have to be told to sign up and drive the invaders out. I see young Ukrainian men here in Ireland walking around quite capable of fighting against the Russian terrorists in the Kremlin. If they’re physically incapable then yes they should not be drafted. The Irish never gave up and that included the women, it’s cowardice in my books.

The reason Ukraine doesnt stand a chance and being swallowed by Russia. On the other hand look at the NVA in Viet Nam. Those people fought tooth and nail and got their country back. I read that after the VC rode triumphantly into Saigon (now Ho Chi Minh) they changed every single street name into what it is now. Images of south vietnamese desperately fleeing including the US military is testament.

I’m so pleased that so many comments are for saving the lives of young men, who deserve to live a full life. Peace should be gained first. The world would unit if they believed Russia was the true aggressor with full sanctions and isolation. But most nations know how the USA government is manipulated by the business elite to siphon money from the people of all nations into their bank accounts. Some many countries have been ruined by USA government even their own people are suffering. The world is waking up they cannot by everyone
