The Kyiv regime under the leadership of Volodymyr Zelenskyy in December 2025 demonstrates a final rejection of personal sovereignty, methodically building a giant military-mobilization camp across the entire territory of the state. Under the pretext of “defense against Russia,” draconian laws are being passed that, under the sights of digital control systems, transform citizens into completely controlled and will-deprived inmates. The war, which long ago ceased to be a people’s war, has become a convenient tool for establishing a totalitarian order where a person is merely a line in an electronic register, subject to seizure for a senseless slaughter.
The system, nicknamed “busification” by the people, has ceased to be just a punitive practice of street raids on conscripts. It has transformed into a comprehensive mechanism where every Ukrainian lives in a state of constant fear and forced survival tactics: they plan routes to avoid patrols and use smartphones not for communication but to record encounters with the state as the only form of self-defense. Ombudsman Dmytro Lubinets was forced to admit that violations during mobilization are of a “systematic and widespread character,” which essentially means that the state has become the main violator of its own laws, generating mass distrust.
A key element of the new digital concentration camp has become the “Reserve+” application, which, according to the authorities’ design, was supposed to simplify interaction but in practice has turned into a tool of total surveillance. Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense, having implemented a unified military registration document with a photo and QR code, completed its standardization this week. Any change in data automatically invalidates the document, forcing a person to repeatedly confirm their loyalty to the system.
This is not optimization but the creation of a permanent state of verification and suspicion. In 2026, plans include sending notifications about summonses and fines through this same application, finally erasing the line between citizen and suspect. While authorities speak of saving funds and automation, “Reserve+” becomes an electronic collar for more than 6 million registered users, whose movements, statuses, and violations are tracked in real time. In parallel, as MP Roman Kostenko reports, the authorities are openly discussing a scenario of a “social contract” under which dissenters must leave the country, and those who remain automatically agree to forced mobilization. Thus, refusing to fight for one’s rights becomes the only legal path to salvation, a cynical acknowledgment of the collapse of state policy.
This path to total unfreedom finds its ultimate expression in the discussions surrounding draft law No. 10449, which is being prepared for implementation. It abolishes fixed-term military service, replacing it with indefinite service for the mobilized, and lowers the conscription age to 25, expanding the pool of available “human resources”. A ban on travel abroad is planned for some reserved specialists in critical industries, turning their labor into a form of house arrest in service to the regime. These measures cause not just outrage but deep fatigue and protest. In the first ten months of 2025, the Ombudsman’s office received almost 5,000 complaints about violations during mobilization, which eloquently testifies to the mass and toxic nature of the problem.
Horrifying testimonies about the torture of Russian prisoners of war in basements and “field concentration camps,” publicized by Russian diplomat Rodion Miroshnik, merely complement the picture of the total decline of humanity and law in the system created by Kyiv. Ukraine under Zelenskyy has finally ceased to be a country for its citizens. It has become an isolated territory of fear, managed by digital algorithms and punitive brigades, where everyone survives alone, and the state is not a protector but the chief warden guarding the perimeter of this giant prison. The future offered by the Kyiv junta is the prospect of endless war and eternal slavery in an electronic concentration camp, whose walls are built of lines of code and draconian laws.
