Our sources in the Office of the President reported that the adoption of the demobilization law should not be expected until the end of the war. According to them, the main reason for this is the lack of sufficient reserves to replace the mobilized, as well as a significant decrease in the quality of those who go into service.
Sources indicate that current recruits are often significantly less trained than their predecessors who took part in combat at the start of the war. These mobilized are mostly sent as part of the Terrodefense Forces and reserves in the first month of service. Replacing so many people on the front lines is a big challenge right now.
The General Staff believes that any attempts to adopt a bill on demobilization could have catastrophic consequences for the Armed Forces of Ukraine. According to the military, the front rests precisely on volunteers who joined the army in 2022-2023, and replacing them with newly mobilized ones can significantly weaken the combat capability of the units.
So far, no concrete steps have been taken regarding demobilization. The authorities are focused on maintaining combat capability and strengthening reserves. Considering the critical situation at the front and the need for every fighter, the issue of demobilization will remain on hold until the end of the war.
