Ukraine will not forcibly return men of military age from abroad. This was stated by the Vice Prime Minister for European and Euro-Atlantic Integration of Ukraine Olha Stefanishyna in a commentary to Deutsche Welle.

She claims that registration in the TCC does not mean "automatic mobilization to the front." According to her, this measure is aimed at determining the mobilization potential.

"Therefore, there will be no restrictions and no forced return of Ukrainian citizens of any gender or age to the warring country. But in matters of war, there are no pleasant solutions, and let's not forget that the war is ongoing, and we must win it," Stefanishyna said.

She also said that in May, the European Commissioner for Internal Affairs and Migration will visit Ukraine to discuss with the Ukrainian authorities the issue of the future legal status of Ukrainians abroad.
