Germany Reacts To Ukraine's Decision Not To Provide Consular Services To Men Abroad
This was stated at a briefing in Berlin by German Interior Ministry spokesman Maximillian Kall, commenting on Kyiv's decision to temporarily suspend the provision of consular services to Ukrainian men abroad, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.
According to Kall, "this will not affect the protection status, which is the same for men and women, as they make up the vast majority of war refugees."
Therefore, the decision of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine to suspend the provision of consular services abroad to Ukrainian men aged 18 to 60 will not affect the status of men, which is the same in all EU countries. The spokesperson was not prepared to say whether the men would be able to obtain a temporary German travel document in Germany if their Ukrainian passport is expired.
