Demobilization will only be after the war: Umerov told the military (video)

The Minister of Defense Rustem Umerov told about innovations in the system of military service in an interview with the Public portal. According to Umerov, a new law on mobilization will be amended for conscription, demobilization, delay and social protection of the military. In this case, the military will be in the army as long as the war continues. The soldiers mobilized to the Armed Forces will be offered two mechanisms to be able to recover, the minister explained.

In particular, they will be able to "partially demobilize" or use a vacation. For this purpose, special mechanisms are created - legal, legislative and technical. "We need to understand that this is our common goal, it is a question of justice for everyone. We are working on those who are already at war, and we have found decisions that will be submitted to the Verkhovna Rada," the official is convinced. In Ukraine, they will also create a special "mobilization matrix", Umerov said.

"Matrix" means that the events that will occur with a person who is called to the army will be clearly prescribed - how training, combat coordination, entering the front line, receiving vacation, social assistance, etc. will take place. "Unfortunately, we have perceived that serving the Motherland is punishment. These worldviews need to be changed: both approaches to them and formats. My goal is to solve these problems. The rules of the game are needed. For everyone.

" As Umerov explained, they plan to think about whether it is advisable to reduce the conscript age to 25 years. He also noted that they would keep records and invite other ways to the CCC rather than stopping men on the streets. On the other hand, men, having received a challenge, should come to the military enlistment office and pass the Military Medical Commission. "We are working on databases.

After accounting, we look at whether one or another category will be proposed for military service or not. This is a huge mechanism that needs to be discussed step by step," the minister summed up, noting that the military will probably be obliged They will receive appropriate notifications on the smartphone.

It should be noted that President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky stated during the final annual press conference on December 19 that the General Staff needed to mobilize 450-500 thousand people. He also noted that they are considering a decrease in the conscript age and conscription for women. The head of the state noted that women are unlikely to agree to the mobilization of women, and he listens to the decrease in age.
