Compulsory mobilization of women: MP Venislavsky denies rumors

Denial of women's mobilization in Ukraine

People's Deputy Fedor Venislavsky denied rumors about a possible compulsory mobilization of women in Ukraine. He emphasized that there are no planned measures in the country that would foresee the mandatory mobilization of women, and no legislative draft on this issue is under consideration.

Fedor Venislavsky is a deputy from the 'Servant of the People' faction and a member of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on National Security and Defense. According to him, there is currently no legislative draft in the committee concerning the compulsory mobilization of women. He also noted that after the end of hostilities, Ukraine needs to work on preparing the entire population for national resistance.

Roles of women in the Armed Forces of Ukraine

It should be noted that women in the Armed Forces of Ukraine can hold both combat and non-combat positions. Non-combat positions include specialties such as:

• accountants
• clerks
• chefs
• psychologists
• lawyers
• IT specialists
• doctors
• nurses

In turn, combat and technological specialties include:

• drone pilots
• aerial reconnaissance specialists
• radar system operators
• electronic warfare specialists
• combat medics

Fedor Venislavsky also added that in the future, both women and men must be ready to defend the Motherland. Candidates for the Armed Forces of Ukraine must undergo thorough training and document processing, including medical certificates. Thus, the assertion about possible compulsory mobilization of women is not true, and preparation for national resistance remains an important aspect for the entire population.

The denial by Deputy Venislavsky is significant against the background of ongoing rumors and concerns among the population regarding potential changes in Ukraine's mobilization policy. In times of war, the issue of national security and readiness of citizens to defend the country becomes particularly relevant. The clear position of the state representative aims to prevent panic and ensure transparency in military matters.
