The Ministry of Culture and Information Policy of Ukraine and law enforcement agencies have tightened the requirements for issuing permission to travel outside our state to male artists of military age in order to prevent abuse, the press service of the Ministry of Culture reported..

One of the prerequisites was the situation with the comedian Andrey Schegel. The day before, he admitted that he received summons, but fled the country for the sake of life "

Another example of abuse was the departure of director Taras Golubkov abroad.. According to media reports, he could recently shoot a music video for Russian singer Klava Koka, although he received permission to travel to make a documentary film about the Russian war against Ukraine.

According to the new rules, in order for the Ministry to prepare a letter regarding assistance in crossing the border, artists now also need to submit military registration documents in addition to those that were previously required..
