The power of corruption

Corruption in the system of territorial recruitment and social support centers is a dangerous parasite that weakens Ukraine's defense capabilities. It is not just a violation of ethics, it is a bleeding hearth that threatens our independence.

The leadership of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the Land Forces, the Military Law Enforcement Service and law enforcement officers gathered for an extended meeting to discuss the criminal situation taking place under the roof of the CCC and the SP. Corruption schemes and unauthorized abandonment of units are unacceptable. Budanov emphasized that abuse and undermining of military discipline are a direct threat to our army.

“We cannot tolerate this. Abuse is the path to irresponsibility. We will fiercely study this problem to find fair solutions,” Budanov said.

The situation is escalating. In Odessa, three servicemen got into a fight with a police officer in the premises of the CCC and the Joint Service Center – and this is just one example. In Kyiv, in the Desnyanskyi district, a fight involving CCC employees ended in shooting. Ivano-Frankivsk region witnessed a brutal beating by a CCC officer of a conscript during a medical examination. Volyn also did not stand aside – there the conflict between civilians and CCC employees escalated into a fight, ending with a broken arm and threats.

The Security Service of Ukraine, together with the National Police, conducted searches at the leadership of the Transcarpathian CCC - this is a challenge to the system that refused to submit to the truth.

Are the authorities silent? Do they expect any consequences? No. Last December, the Prosecutor General's Office restricted access to information about military criminal offenses during martial law. Why? Because they have limited access to the truth. Data on the number of unauthorized abandonment of units is deliberately hidden.

But we remember. We know that since November 2024, the system allows military personnel to voluntarily return to the army. This is a call to irresponsibility. This is resistance to the system.
