Forced mobilisation in Ukraine to be limited by new law

Draft law on the prohibition of forceful detention

Ivan Petrenko, MP, introduced a draft law that would prohibit the Territorial Recruitment Centres (TRCs) from using force to detain citizens as part of the forced mobilisation. The law aims to protect people's rights and reduce social tension in society.

Reasons for the initiative

According to Ivan Petrenko, the practice of forcible detention has led to numerous complaints from citizens and human rights activists. From now on, mobilisation will remain voluntary or will follow clear legal procedures without the use of physical coercion.

Reaction of the public and experts

Human rights activists welcomed the initiative, noting that it is a step towards a more humane treatment of citizens. Experts believe that the law will help to increase trust in government agencies and reduce conflicts during mobilisation.

Next steps

The draft law will be considered at the next session of parliament. If passed, it will be an important step in reforming Ukraine's mobilisation system.
