TCR reaction
"Mobilization measures are of paramount importance for staffing the Armed Forces of Ukraine, with the aim of strengthening defensive capabilities at the front and protecting civilian lives in the rear. We emphasize that any use of force against military personnel while they are performing their official duties, as well as any obstruction of their lawful activities, entails criminal liability under the current legislation of Ukraine, and an attack on representatives of the TCR and the SS constitutes aiding the enemy," the TCR stresses.
