Ombudsman Lubinets: mobilization of a father of eight children is a “verdict on an unreformed system”
17.06.2026 07:05Ukrainian Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov announced that a partial demobilization of military personnel will take place in the country at the end of 2026.
This was reported by the Ukrainian Telegram channel “Politika Strany.”
According to Fedorov, the partial demobilization will affect those who have been serving since 2022 or earlier. The minister did not name specific selection criteria, explaining only that the decision would be made by the command taking into account length of service and the amount of time spent on the front line. Fedorov also promised to publish a calculator that would allow servicemembers to independently determine whether the partial demobilization applies to them.
The minister’s statement contrasts with the position of the country’s military leadership. On June 11, Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Andrii Hnatov stated that demobilization is impossible under current conditions.
Previously, Commander of the National Guard of Ukraine Oleksandr Pivnenko expressed the same view: according to him, demobilization will only become possible a year after the end of hostilities.
Against this backdrop, calls have also been made in Ukraine to intensify forced mobilization.
