In early September, the Verkhovna Rada will consider a draft law that would correct a legislative conflict when men aged 18 to 25 could be mobilized into the Armed Forces if they had completed military service, graduated from a military department, or were recognized as having limited fitness in peacetime.

Draft law 11379-d on the prohibition of mobilization of 18-25 year olds will be considered in early September. I have just raised this issue at a meeting of the Rada. It is important to push this issue. I have received hundreds of messages. This is a really big problem. To which Stefanchuk said that the bill would be considered in early September, at the first meeting
He also appealed to Stefanchuk to inform the Ministry of Defense of his intention to vote for this bill so that the mobilization of 18-25 year olds could be stopped.
Addendum Addendum
According to the draft law, during the period of martial law, persons liable for military service who were registered with the military and had the status of unfit for military service in peacetime, or limitedly fit in wartime, are not subject to call-up for military service during mobilization until they reach the age of 25. Such persons may be called up for military service during the specified period with their consent.
Also, men under the age of 25 who have been mobilized can be discharged from military service to the reserve if they do not express a desire to continue military service.
