Serhiy Prytula said that he received a summons and even passed the VLK. So a logical question arose, why he did not go to serve after that.
And he answered it in an interview with journalist Natalia Moseichuk, which appeared on her YouTube channel on April 20. Serhii Prytula explained why he received a deferment from service.
Prytula – adjournment
Natalia Moseichuk asked Serhiy Prytula if he had armor. To this he responded with a smile.
“That's a very funny question, – he laughed. – Charities are not on the list of entities subject to reservations.”
So, she decided to clarify: “So you are not immune to the fact that you may receive a summons?”
I received a summons, I passed the VLK (military medical commission – Radio MAXIMUM), I am registered at the Shevchenkiv TCC (Territorial center of procurement – Radio MAXIMUM). I have a deferment from military service due to the presence of three minor children,
– explained Prytula.
