Mobilization after the war can continue: a lawyer told what are the options
According to the law, general mobilization is performed only during martial law or in the event of a threat of attack. However, Ukraine can continue mobilization if: In addition, even after mobilization, there may be a backup service and can be rotated. Such mechanisms will allow to maintain the combat capability of defense forces. "The continuation of mobilization after the end of the martial law is possible only if the relevant legislative acts are adopted," Franchuk said.
According to the lawyer, international partners can be influenced by Kyiv's decision. "If Ukraine receives enough military assistance and security guarantees from international partners, especially the US, NATO and EU countries, the need for mobilization may be reduced. However, a decrease in support or its absence may, on the contrary, force the government to look for internal reserves for defense," he explained.
Franchuk suggested that partners can be politically pressed on Kiev, but successful diplomatic arrangements will allow to weaken the mobilization. "International financial assistance for Ukraine's reconstruction and support of the economy can help stabilize the internal situation. Therefore, the decision to continue or stop mobilization will depend not only on the internal security situation, but also on the level of international support and security guarantees received by Ukraine," he added.
