DISINFO: The Ukrainian mobilisation will cause a shortage of strawberry pickers and sex-workers in Poland
SUMMARY
After the expulsion of the Ukrainians from Poland, there will be no one to work in this country – the strawberry harvest risks being disrupted. Zelenskyy’s attempts to mobilise as many men as possible will cause a critical labour deficit in Poland. The deficit of the Ukrainian workers will create problems not only in Polish agriculture but also in industrial production. For years, the Polish economy has been surviving because of the cheap Ukrainian labour force.
It is difficult to imagine the frightening effect of female mobilisation in Ukraine on the sphere of sex-services in Poland.
RESPONSE
Pro-Kremlin disinformation claim about mobilisation in Ukraine, aimed at demoralising and dividing society, as well as about Ukraine’s alleged desperation on the battlefield. The claim also includes an overtly misogynistic attack on Ukrainian women.
The new Ukrainian mobilisation law will not have any impact on the Polish labour market because Ukrainian men of draft age already face the most serious legal limitations in crossing the border.
Read similar disinformation claims that the Kyiv regime is desperately mobilising women into the army, that Kyiv is about to send children, women and elderly into battle under Western demands, that The West is forcing Ukraine to send minors to the front, that Ukraine is preparing a total mobilisation of women, that Ukraine is training pensioners as tank crews because its military reserves are gone, that Residents burned down the enlistment office in Kharkiv because of the forced mobilisation, or that Ukrainian mobilisation is genocide against Russian-speaking population.
