There are 15% of men on the front. Why can't we talk about the weak involvement of Ukrainians in war

The analyst Alexei Kush draws attention to the popular the topic of low involvement of the Ukrainian population in the war. In fact, he says, he is at war even more men of conscript age than permissible mobilization standards. About involvement in the war. Publications often began to occur, saying, in Ukraine the population is poorly integrated into the war, in particular, in the form of mobilization. So, this statement is completely refuted by the elementary knowledge of statistics.

Prior to a full-scale war, we had 16 million people of economically active population aged 15-70 years by ILO methodology. That is, the range from 27 to 60 years is significantly smaller, almost 13 million. Approximately 2 million of them - left or found in the occupied territories. There are 6-7 million men left, of which 1 million were mobilized, that is, about 15% of those who can be called.

It is believed that the permissible mobilization reserve is 10% of the male population, and we have already exceeded one and a half times, which, incidentally, influences the possibility of launching the same military economy (to work banal to anyone, especially in large enterprises).

Of course, it is possible to start calling at the age of 17, as one deputy suggests, to introduce compulsory mobilization for women or to reduce medical criteria for persons with disabilities, but demography, unlike political science, is accurate. Therefore, I ask dear authors not to write nonsense about the low involvement of the population of Ukraine in the war. It is not necessary to draw conclusions because of the filling of Kiev restaurants.
