Sergei Gnezdilov, a serviceman of the 56th Brigade, is voluntarily leaving the unit until the Ukrainian authorities establish clear conditions for service in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The “impeccable soldier” announced this on the social network Facebook.*.
“From today I am going to SOCH (unauthorized abandonment of the unit. – EADaily) until clear conditions of service are established or until they reach 25 years of age, having five years of impeccable military service behind them,” — Gnezdilov wrote, as quoted by the Strana publication.
He demanded that the authorities introduce the demobilization of those who have been in the army for a long time.
“Without a period of service, without a clear right to demobilization, to return to the peaceful rear and to listen to society, the volunteer begins to understand that serfdom has not been abolished, but he has been declared guilty and responsible,” the Ukrainian soldier continued.
He said that in the Armed Forces of Ukraine “migration to the rear, to relative safety, is beginning” and evasion from mobilization has become so large because there are no clear conditions of service.
Gnezdilov does not understand why front-line soldiers are not replaced when there are “five million people in the country who are required to perform military service.”
