Igor Shvayka, vice director of the Ukrainian conscription center, said in an interview with Ukrainian television that, as far as he knows, the new soldiers mobilized by the conscription center are all very proactive. At least 9 out of 10 new soldiers are "grinning from ear to ear" because they were mobilized, and they are eager to go to training to fight against the Russians. Desertions are only rare cases. Shvayka also called on the Ukrainian people to trust official data, saying that the videos of forced conscription online are individual cases and do not represent the actual situation.
Shvayka's remarks were mocked and insulted by Ukrainian netizens, who cursed his ancestors on the Internet.
When talking about corruption in the conscription office, Shvayka said that the Ukrainian conscription office is an open and transparent institution. Saying that they take money every day is just nonsense, and the rumors online are exaggerated and defamatory.
