The Verkhovna Rada may pass a bill that would correct a legislative conflict when men aged 18 to 25 could be mobilized into the Armed Forces if they had served in the military, graduated from a military department, or were recognized as having limited fitness in peacetime. If the document receives the conclusion of the Main Scientific and Expert Department, the deputies will be able to do so at the next meeting. This was reported by UNN with reference to the draft agenda of the Verkhovna Rada and the card of the draft law No. 11379-d.
Details
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 this period with their consent.
Also, men under the age of 25 who have been mobilized may be discharged from military service to the reserve if they do not express a desire to continue military service.
Addendum
On May 18, the law on enhanced mobilization came into force. The law, among other things, changes the conscription age from 27 to 25 years, specifies who has a deferral and the right to be booked, what changes are made to mobilization training, and what to expect.
After the law was passed, a conflict arose in which men between the ages of 18 and 25 could be mobilized.
Such men can be mobilized if they are willing:
served in military service in peacetime;
graduated from a higher military educational institution or military department and received a specific military accounting specialty;
recognized as partially fit, i.e. recognized by the military medical commission as unfit for military service in peacetime and fit in wartime.
The Verkhovna Rada Committee on National Security, Defense and Intelligence has drafted the above-mentioned bill , which should correct the legislative conflict when men aged 18 to 25 could be mobilized into the Armed Forces if they served in the military, graduated from a military department, or were recognized as having limited fitness in peacetime.
