The President Volodymyr Zelensky submitted draft laws No. 8189 and No. 8190 to the Verkhovna Rada (Ukrainian Parliament), which propose to extend martial law and mobilization in Ukraine.
The documents were registered on the website of the Verkhovna Rada on November 8. Currently, both draft laws are being considered by the leadership of the parliament.
The MP from the "Voice" party Yaroslav Zheleznyak wrote that the Verkhovna Rada, at the next plenary meeting, is likely to extend martial law and general mobilization for 90 days — until February 19, 2023.
- Since the beginning of the Russian invasion, martial law has been established in Ukraine, and general mobilization has been announced, which prohibits conscripts from leaving the country. Currently, martial law and general mobilization are in effect until November 21, 2022.
- On November 4, the Verkhovna Rada adopted the law on the reservation from mobilization of conscripts, which defines the categories of citizens (men) who are not subject to conscription.
