Fedorov should sign contract for military service, that would be fair, - Honcharenko. VIDEO

"Fedorov never carried out the reform of the TCR. And now he needs this reform himself. He is liable for military service. He does not have three children and, to all appearances, he is perfectly healthy.

Today (19 August – Ed.) the Rada appointed Yevhen Khmara as minister. This means there is now no alternative but to join the army," the statement reads.

Honcharenko recalled that two months ago, Fedorov, in his capacity as Defence Minister, presented new contracts for military personnel.

"He promoted them and said this was THE BEST REFORM IN THE ARMY. I don’t think there’s any need to think about it.

He needs to lead by example. FEDOROV MUST SIGN A FEDOROV CONTRACT! That would be fair, at the very least," he added.
