"All Are Fit": What Instructions Did VVK Doctors Receive on "White-Ticket Holders"? - MP (VIDEO)
Background
The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine has introduced changes to the law on military service, which abolishes the concept of "unfit for military service in peacetime, limited fit in wartime". As a result, all men of military age are now considered fit for service. This has raised concerns about the health of conscripts and the quality of medical examinations conducted by military medical commissions (VVK).
MP's Concern
Member of Parliament Oleksandr Merezhko has expressed concern about the instructions given to VVK doctors regarding the examination of "white-ticket holders" (individuals previously deemed unfit for military service). He claims that the doctors have been instructed to find all conscripts fit for service, regardless of their health condition.
Expert Opinion
Mykhailo Havrylov, a military doctor and expert on military medical issues, has confirmed that the VVK has indeed received instructions to consider all conscripts fit for service. However, he emphasizes that the doctors are still required to conduct thorough medical examinations and make their decisions based on the results of those examinations.
Impact on Conscripts
The abolition of the "white-ticket" category and the new instructions to VVK doctors could have a significant impact on conscripts. It means that individuals who were previously considered unfit for military service may now be called up for service. This raises concerns about the health and well-being of these conscripts, as well as the potential for abuse by VVK doctors.
Concerns and Recommendations
MP Merezhko has called for an investigation into the instructions given to VVK doctors and the quality of medical examinations being conducted. He also recommends that the Ministry of Defense establish a special commission to review the cases of conscripts who have been declared fit for service despite their health conditions.
Conclusion
The recent changes to the law on military service and the new instructions to VVK doctors have raised concerns about the health of conscripts and the quality of medical examinations. It is important to ensure that all conscripts are treated fairly and that their health is not compromised. Further investigation and oversight are needed to address these concerns and ensure the integrity of the military medical examination process.
