The relevant provision is contained in the draft of the new Civil Code, which is expected to be submitted to the Verkhovna Rada in the near future.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"473\" data-end=\"618\">It is not about a general reduction in the marriage age, but about <strong data-start=\"527\" data-end=\"551\">exceptional opportunity<\/strong> marriage by minors if there are reasonable grounds.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"620\" data-end=\"657\">Under what conditions is early marriage possible?<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"659\" data-end=\"741\">According to the draft document, permission to marry at the age of 14 may be granted in the following cases:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"743\" data-end=\"808\">\n<li data-start=\"743\" data-end=\"777\">\n<p data-start=\"745\" data-end=\"777\"><strong data-start=\"745\" data-end=\"774\">pregnancy of a minor<\/strong>;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"778\" data-end=\"808\">\n<p data-start=\"780\" data-end=\"808\"><strong data-start=\"780\" data-end=\"805\">the birth of a child<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"810\" data-end=\"915\">Such decisions will continue to be made by <strong data-start=\"854\" data-end=\"871\">individually<\/strong> taking into account the circumstances and interests of the child.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"917\" data-end=\"943\">What the new code changes<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"945\" data-end=\"1102\">The current legislation of Ukraine establishes <strong data-start=\"984\" data-end=\"1018\">basic marriage age of 18 years<\/strong>, However, it allows the court to grant the right to marry from the age of 16 for good reasons.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1104\" data-end=\"1273\">The new Civil Code proposes <strong data-start=\"1136\" data-end=\"1160\">empower<\/strong> such permission for another two years - up to 14 years, which may become one of the most controversial changes in family law.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1275\" data-end=\"1298\">Context and discussion<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1300\" data-end=\"1378\">The initiative is expected to <strong data-start=\"1334\" data-end=\"1363\">a broad public discussion<\/strong>, In particular, regarding:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"1380\" data-end=\"1501\">\n<li data-start=\"1380\" data-end=\"1411\">\n<p data-start=\"1382\" data-end=\"1411\">protection of the rights of minors;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1412\" data-end=\"1446\">\n<p data-start=\"1414\" data-end=\"1446\">Preventing forced marriages;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1447\" data-end=\"1501\">\n<p data-start=\"1449\" data-end=\"1501\">compliance with European standards of children's rights.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"1503\" data-end=\"1613\">The fate of the provision will depend on the results of the parliamentary review and possible amendments to the draft code.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0412 \u0423\u043a\u0440\u0430\u0457\u043d\u0456 \u043c\u043e\u0436\u0443\u0442\u044c
