Ukraine abolished universal military service

President of Ukraine Viktor Yanukovych canceled universal military service. He signed a decree on the transition of the army to a contract basis and on the latest conscription to the armed forces of the country. However, he stressed that recruitment for military service would remain in the internal troops.

Yanukovych explained that the transition of the army to a contract basis is due to the fact that modern combat equipment requires professionals. It is in the hands of these professionals that the security of the state will be given.

According to the Minister of Defense of Ukraine, currently 180 thousand people serve in the country's army, of which 100 thousand serve in the logistics support units. It is expected that after the reform of the armed forces of Ukraine, the number of combat units will be 70 thousand, and logistics support - 50 thousand people.

Most contractors serve in the Navy, Air Force and Special Forces, least of all in the ground forces. Since the beginning of 2013, thousands of people have entered the 6,8 under the contract to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, this figure will reach 7 by the end of the year. Next year, thousands more will enter 4,8 contract service, in 2015 - about 5 thousands, and in 2016-17 - 4,5-5 thousands of people, ITAR-TASS reports.

        Illegally ... hmm ... the law. that drawbar, where he turned, it turned out there. Wrong solution to the issue. We need to follow in the footsteps of America, pay and convince agents of influence in the government of Ukraine, organize a referendum on Ukraine’s accession to the Customs Union with the subsequent integration of the financial system. Well, there is a stone's throw to complete unification.

      There’s politics. Russia is just saying, but we’ve already done. But seriously, Ukraine simply cannot support the army. This will create small, but well-trained rapid reaction forces. But this, in turn, means that Ukraine will practically become defenseless in the event of a serious war and its path, in the sense of defense, only to NATO (again in the case of signing the treaty) winked

          I would suggest having a contract and draft army in parallel. Recruiting 1 year. Military sports camp in the region. 18-25 years old. The opportunity to go through the neighborhoods for a year. It will always allow you to have a reserve, to learn how to shoot and physical education. From here to recruit a contract.
          Ideally, there should still be 3-4 Cossack Troops. Which now actually is, but are not brought to a normal battle. The correct laws on the Cossacks, the curatorship of the Ministry of Defense (following the example of the Military Program) training and preparation centers, rights and obligations, weapons.
          For Russia, 7-11 Cossack Troops. And so it is.

              Correctly. Only goals and age group are slightly different. Once upon a time, there was a military camp in the schools of the NVP. Here on this type, only a reinforced version. Fizeau, fire, tactics, engineering. Ideally, RB and psychology.

          Offhand Turkey. And most importantly, there is a reason. Crimea de jure cannot belong to Ukraine. According to the Russian-Turkish treaty, Crimea belongs to Russia without the right to transfer it to third parties. In the event that Crimea leaves Russia, it will automatically return to Turkey.
          Now a possible scenario. In Crimea, mass unrest of the Crimean Tatars. They demand independence. Ukraine is trying to quell unrest. Tatars turn to Turkey for help. Turkey introduces troops. Everything. Not a single EU country will stand up for Ukraine. NATO will also stand by.
          Until now, this has not happened only thanks to the Russian Black Sea Fleet in Sevastopol. And what will happen when you join NATO and demand the withdrawal of the Black Sea Fleet? Indeed, such conversations are already underway by Ukrainian politicians.

                  Now that Russia is in fact an ally of Ukraine, all interested parties understand that if something happens, they will have to deal not with the Ukrainian Armed Forces, but with the Russian Armed Forces. That is, with the armed forces of a country that is a global player on the world stage. With armed forces with nuclear weapons. With a country-permanent member of the UN Security Council. That is why there are no real claims against Ukraine today. But this does not mean that they will not be tomorrow. And if Ukraine quarrels with Russia, it gets so wide that Russia ceases to be an umbrella for it, then the situation will change, and the political positions of Ukraine’s neighboring countries will also.
                  But Ukraine alone will not be able to maintain its territorial integrity. She will not be able to withstand even Poland, what can I say about Turkey.

Not interference will lead to government non-legitimacy but will not stop military assistance. Too much unites us. Too many relatives live on opposite sides of the border. Too much shared story. Too many Russians in Ukraine and Ukrainians in Russia.

                      In the second case, there will be no independent Ukraine, but there will be a republic of Ukraine as part of the Russian Federation.

In fact, militants fighting the Syrian army are trained and armed in Turkey. From the same territory they attack the ATS.
              No one will explain anything to anyone. Power rules the world. Enough if the Turks and the Americans come to a consensus.

The question here is not in complexity but in expediency. If the states decide that the alliance with Ukraine against Russia is less valuable than the chaos and war that could spread to Russia, they will give the go-ahead to Turkey and Poland and to everyone else. And the rest will go. How they went to Iraq, to ​​Libya, to Afghanistan. Moreover, Turkey will never miss the opportunity to acquire territories, knowing that it is being covered by the states.

        In addition, the professional army has a significant drawback: the inability to prolonged hostilities due to the elimination of qualified personnel in battles. She has no reserve in case of a mass total war. After all, all mobilization reserves are created before the war, and not during it.
        This is a topic for a separate and big discussion.
        For example, the dispersal of the professional military and the transition to the concept of an "armed people" killed Gaddafi, and the presence of professional special forces saved Assad. But the presence of conscripts allowed him to make up for the losses of these units in battles, from desertion and other reasons. The core of the Syrian army has survived, and the system for training new soldiers is functioning properly. So you shouldn't look at everything one-sidedly. hi

        By the way, the total strength of the Romanian army today is 73.000 and it is also contracted.

    There is a rational grain in this - a yesterday’s schoolchild cannot master the most complicated pieces of equipment in 1-2 years. Even the same tank. Russian experts estimate that the conscript tanker in Russia (not in Ukraine, where he has 1 year of line service) masters no more than 20% of the tank’s capabilities in its specialization. There are skills, but far from professionalism. But they just got used to chop everything off our shoulder. There are also such vusy (like a motorized infantry) where universities do not have to be completed, as for the Union — pilots fly, techies serve, and security, etc. carry stringers.

      and what is the conclusion? in principle, do not call and do not teach this student, let him be so ignorant and live, does the iPhone twist? or is it better to learn? why he cannot master the profession in full, maybe such a conscript should be trained more intensively, for 16 hours in a continuous fashion throughout the whole year of service, and not to drive to dig fields or build cottages. drive in the basic skills for a year and then periodically call and retrain at the military training college, and from these trained conscripts recruit into combat units.

        The bill proposes to almost halve the staff of law enforcement agencies. So, it was proposed to reduce the staff of the State Guard of Ukraine from 2990 people to 1537, the Security Service of Ukraine - from 33500 person up to 16750, Ministry of the Interior with 324400 man to 162200. The Ministry of Internal Affairs internal troops are also proposed to be reduced from 33300 to
        16650 people.

            The term “corrupt” can be attributed to the entire vertical of power as a corrupt judge, traffic cop, tax officer, guard, etc.
            It turns out according to statistics about 1 out of a hundred is a cop..a fish rots from the head = corruption does not decrease in any situation ..
            Why is it so unclear to the country how many cops the people are not aggressive, Yanuk has the coolest security of all the presidents who were in Ukraine, what is his convoy of more than 20 escort vehicles worth, the budget of Ukraine spends about 1 million UAH per day on Yanukovych.

    And I think the decision is logical and reasonable. Conscripts in the VV for 1 year will master the skills of army service and handling personal weapons like the KMB. In addition, a professional contract soldier will have to be treated very differently than a conscript slave. He is no longer pogonish to scrub the "point" or fulfill other whims of tyrant commanders. Sorry - there is no contract. And what the hell hazing can be among the contractors. And about the small size of the army - so well-trained people who know how to handle weapons will not go anywhere (they will serve in the military while gaining skills), a call for mobilization - and we have a couple of million personnel, including specialists (a contract soldier, having served and resigned skills, did not will lose).

    It is clear, of course, that the practically liquidation of the Ukrainian army is not from a good life. The reason is commonplace-the lack of funds for maintenance. Well, the words about modern technology are also correct, but said no more than to reassure.

    Well, yes, if Russia transfers its units of constant combat readiness to a contract basis, this is an increase in the combat readiness and professionalism of the military personnel.
    If the number of draftees is reduced in Russia, this is an optimization of army spending.
    (Despite the fact that not a single conscript was involved in the five-day war)
    But if Ukraine goes on a contractual basis, this is the collapse of the army and all the polymers have been drained.
    Well and yes, an army made up of conscripts who could not hide or otmazatsya is much more resistant or patriotic than contract soldiers and naturally can take longer to participate in the war, as the first Chechen one showed.

      In Russia, the number of draft dodgers is falling rapidly, it’s just that the army has changed since the 90s. Remember that a contract army cannot survive a large-scale war, or even a regional conflict. This will require a reserve, without a call, reservists are just meat that even from a machine gun didn’t shoot nirazu.

Now the number of the Ground Forces, Naval Forces and the French Air Force is only 220 thousand and the defense budget is 10 times larger and 20 million more than the population. And they also want to reduce by 20% what they already have. The army of Ukraine has declined over the years by 3,5 times, and some countries of the former airborne forces by 5-6 times.

    Most of the contractors are in the Navy, Air Force and Special Forces, least of all in the Ground Forces. Since the beginning of 2013, 6,8 thousand people entered the Ukrainian Armed Forces under the contract, this figure will reach 7 thousand by the end of the year. Next year, 4,8 thousand people will be employed under the contract, in 2015 - about 5 thousand, and in 2016-17 - 4,5-5 thousand people

      Did you serve when officers only survived on rations? Or dry potatoes, frozen 60s meat and Cuban sugar, from the reserve were given to cadets and soldiers? Or did they go on guard with the TT, because there were no cartridges for the PM? Or did you learn driving only by starting a ZIL and driving a couple of meters? Or was they pouring mash in BMD, mixing with sunflower oil to start the engine? And you probably know what it means to shoot a carriage of shells with 6 guns in three days, because they sent it by mistake, and there is no money back to take it back. And I tell you the situation in the Ukrainian army in the second half of the 90s, when the army was large.

        And you count yourself, if not scrap. He served from September 1982 to August 2007. Well, at the same time, compare what you listed with the term of my service. hi
        Yes, if you decide that your facts are not enough, write to me. I will supplement. And not only from the 90s, but from 2 thousandths I’ll add. So that the 90s did not look very gloomy ...

          The first 4 years in the 21st century began to improve. And then ... In any case, the fighters did not spin the jets on the carburetors anymore. And we were paid regularly and the colonels no longer pan (private carriage) in order to feed our family.

            And then...

            And then there was a change of at least some supreme commander in chief to the supreme commander of the clown.
            How's Grandfather Krylov?
            "Trouble, if the shoemaker starts to bake the pies ..."
            Next, we observe the change of the supreme commander of the clown to the supreme commander of the degenerate.
            "And the boots are for the cake-maker ..."
            The absurdity of the situation is that the Krylov characters, each - at least he knew how to do something. What about these trepachki? fool

                ... there was no worse period of the 90s.

                Is it scary? Difficult - yes, but I don't think it is scary. Compare the officers. Then there were many military officers with a wealth of experience. They knew how, sorry, bullet out of shit ... And now? For example, I would not say that my shoulder straps were easy for me. Now, epaulettes, posts, orders are sold, as on your famous "Privoz" tangerines! Generals - sho dogs not cut. How many macaques did they recruit to headquarters and management? They sit in frames with lieutenant-colonel-colonel's shoulder straps, an "iconostasis" on a tunic, like a marshal's, and a "pria" with a manicure like a panel one, I'm sorry ... Lord, you will think out loud. During the war colonels commanded regiments and divisions and held the front. And the lives of soldiers were on their shoulders. And with this monkey, God forbid war, what good will it be if she only knows how to put her feet on the shoulders of the boss?
                So I don’t know, dear, what’s worse. It was? Or will there be more? request

    Nothing is better. Nenke's army sho goose boyan, especially since this kaklarmia actually did not exist anymore, because what for is it for the "state", whose government, joyfully squealing, at an accelerated pace turns it into a colony of the west? The Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukriya is now five times more than the army - in this incomplete organized criminal group, Kaklo-power is preparing to fight only with its own citizens.

    However, the better. But then it will be easier for us to send the yellow-mackerel and join Russia. Personally, I served in Russia, and on occasion, the real Motherland will give me a good broom to sweep out all the Svidomo scum for Zbruch.

      Ty and Grazhdansky with a bunch of the same "like-minded people" to put in frets-viburnum, give you "brooms" and send you "clean". I think the Ukrainian explosives will be enough for you, at the same time, go for Zbruch later, sit in the zones. That's where your Internet war ends with "little blood"

    Why conscription? Military service in the home country is an honorable duty.

      At the time of "Maxim Perepilitsa" it was an honorable duty, and at the time of "Deadly Force" - a duty.

    If you are an autocrat, then I will not come to your land for Zbruch. I don’t need her for nothing. If you are a supporter of the unity of Russian Civilization, then please be kind enough to stand with me in the event of war.

      Wars with whom? With the people of Ukraine? I always wonder how such theorists will separate people. I took the oath of allegiance to the people of Ukraine even though I am not a Ukrainian by nationality, and Russia is not my homeland. To me in this case, politics is a shit.

    . And as regards the small size of the army — trained people who know how to handle weapons will never go anywhere (they’ll get skills in the BB), a call for mobilization — we have a couple of millions of personnel, including specialists (the contractor has served and will lose).

    and from where 2000000 personnel will be recruited, how many are there - 80 people. - MO and 000 - BB, well, let the number of explosives double - 50, which I do not believe. so what is the annual draft-in the army-000 thousand, because the contract is concluded for a minimum of 100000 years, and many will extend it, and in the BB - 10 thousand, because there will also be contractors and officers available. those. approximately 5 people will be fired from service per year. how many over the years to recruit 60 people. trained reserve: 000: 70 = 000 years. At this point, the first retirees will already retire, because they will be 2-000 years old, so there simply will not be any reserves. and God forbid, any major conflict will arise after the personnel army perishes, defending the country, young, uneducated people will fight.

    And why do you write off those who have served until today (in the USSR Armed Forces, in the CIS Armed Forces and in the Armed Forces of Ukraine)? These are also citizens of their country and I think they will not stay away. I personally can not perceive the current government, but love my country, and if you need to protect it with weapons in my hands. Fortunately - taught.
