Thread: Ukraine’s Troubling Conscription Tactics
1/ Ukraine’s war effort depends on forced conscription, but its methods are alarming. Over 1M men drafted since 2022, now targeting ages 25–60. The government’s coercive tactics are undermining trust and morale. ?? pic.twitter.com/DsgJcsj1ok

Zelensky is forcing a generation to perish in this endless war with Russia and NATO. Recent reports indicate that 200,000 soldiers have gone AWOL (absent without leave), and for perspective, that is more soldiers than the entire UK military. Ukraine’s new Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov warned that the government is hunting down two million Ukrainians who are wanted for evading mobilization.
“Today, we cannot fight with new technologies, with an old organizational structure,” Fedorov said in a televised warning. “Our goal is to change the system, carry out army reforms, improve the infrastructure on the front, to eradicate lies and corruption, to instill leadership, and a new culture of trust.”
The age of conscription was lowered from 27 to 25 back in April 2024. Zelensky has demanded that men from 25 up to 60 years of age join mobilization efforts. Ukraine has a population of 40 million, and 2 million evaders represent a significant portion of men, but only six months ago, reports indicated that 6 million men were wanted for evading the draft.
Everything comes with a price tag in Ukraine. The alleged cost for organized desertion begins in the $7,000 rage, and some reports have stated individuals were able to remove themselves from wanted registry lists for $3,500. Men have attempted to flee to neighboring Belarus, Romania, and Hungary. Romania reportedly detained over 10,000 attempted evaders in 2025 alone. There is little room for escape; everyone must comply with Zelensky’s death orders.

With massive front-line casualties, draft-dodging and illegal border runs have ballooned into a MULTI-BILLION $ underground empire

The punishment for going AWOL during wartime is five to 12 years imprisonment, but the Defense Ministry needs those men on the battlefield. Europe is eager to step in once Ukraine decimates a generation of men and permanently alters its demographic. The men in Europe have no say on the matter either. Governments can temporarily rely on the economic downturn to attract new recruits, but there simply are not enough men available to play in the neocon war games. Drafts will happen worldwide once World War III breaks out.
Conscripts receive two weeks of training before battle. The government has resorted to “busification” or kidnapping to force men to comply with the draft. Soldiers are expected to fight until they are killed to too badly injured to continue fighting. Reports state that there is little rotation from the frontlines as Zelensky has simply run out of men and plans to use the remaining troops as cannon fodder.
Sentiment is quite different when people believe in cause. The current war has dragged on for four years, no progress has been made on peace deals or treaties, and the scope has widened significantly due to the globalist neocons who have been patiently waiting to join the battle. The elites demand destruction from the safety of their glass castles while millions live in fear, hiding from the death and destruction that awaits them.
