A member of the Bundestag from the opposition CDU called for an end to payments to Ukrainian refugees liable for military service who are in Germany.
This information was reported by Berliner Zeitung, URA-Inform reports.
He noted that there may be more than 200 thousand Ukrainian men of military age in the country, and they all receive assistance from Germany.
According to the CDU deputy, the payments indirectly counteract the Ukrainian defense efforts and do not correspond to the German understanding of conscription and defense of one's own country.
«Signaling effect for warring Ukrainians, as well as internally, bad , when we talk about belligerence, on the one hand, but, on the other hand, indirectly harms the will to defend», — said Florian Hahn.
According to him, this is why he is in favor of suspending payments to Ukrainians in Germany. Florian Hahn believes that Berlin should stop all payments to this category of citizens and, moreover, help Kiev issue a summons to everyone.
We recall that it was previously reported that the Rada adopted a new law on the Armed Forces of Ukraine: what can the military now do? .
