In the second reading, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine adopted the law on mobilization on April 11, excluding the amendment related to demobilization. Instead, the Cabinet of Ministers was tasked with developing a separate draft law on the release of servicemen who are at the front. This was reported by Fedir Venislavskyi, a member of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on National Security, Defense and Intelligence.
Venislavskyi explained that the decision to withdraw the amendments refers to the initiative of the Cabinet of Ministers, which asked the parliament to instruct the government to develop a separate draft law on the release of servicemen participating in military operations.
Venislavskyi added that the term "demobilization" is unacceptable in the context of war, as it implies a general transfer to a state of peace. Instead, during the conflict, the possibility of releasing servicemen based on additional criteria may be considered.
