The government's bill of general mobilisation in Ukraine was rejected in Verkhovna Rada

Verkhovna Rada

The scandalous bill of the Cabinet of Ministers on mobilisation will not be submitted to the parliament in its current state.

Rada is not going to vote for the government's bill on mobilisation

Yevgenia Kravchuk, Deputy Chairman of the Committee on Information Policy, People's Deputy from "Servant of the People", commented on this matter.

She has already confirmed that the parliament intends to prepare an alternative version.

We already understand that in this form the draft law will not be voted on or adopted. And I think that it will still be a committee version, a profile committee on security and defense issues. And this week, working groups will already work out such a more compromise option, which would allow it to be voted on in the session hall, Yevgenia Kravchuk said.

The Draft Law on mobilisation in Ukraine: what is currently known

On December 25, the government submitted the draft law to the parliament: "On amendments to some legislative acts of Ukraine regarding the improvement of certain issues of mobilisation, military registration and military service" No. 10378.

It provoked a frenzy in Ukrainian society.

The Cabinet of Ministers considers it reasonable to introduce many restrictions against Ukrainians who have not fulfilled their obligations regarding mobilisation’s preparations and mobilisation itself.

For example, for violators of the rules of military registration and defense legislation, the fines should be increased, and the refusal to undergo a medical examination should be deprived of liberty in the same way as for evasion of mobilisation.

Mykhailo Podolyak, the adviser to the Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, recently announced that the draft law on mobilisation will be submitted to the Verkhovna Rada for a vote only after discussion and amendments.
