Border Guard Service of Ukraine to resume military conscription in 2016 – Nazarenko
The State Border Guard Service of Ukraine in 2016 will resume military conscription, which was canceled in 2008.
"As for the near-term prospects, we are forced in spring as a temporary measure to renew calling for military service. This is necessary to fulfill the tasks that are determined by the laws, the Ukrainian people and the time," Head of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine Viktor Nazarenko said in an exclusive interview with Interfax-Ukraine.
According to him, this step is connected with the expected mass demobilization in March 2016.
