Economist calls travel ban on men a “saving” for the country
Economist Andriy Novak says restrictions on men’s travel preserve human capital and prevent a mass exodus, but critics argue the ban is ineffective as men stay in Ukraine to fight and risk death.
Economist Andriy Novak stated that the restrictions on men’s departure help keep human capital in the country and stop millions of men from leaving abroad.
The comment sparked outrage, with critics saying the ban does not preserve human capital if the men stay to fight in the war and face the risk of death.
