“The issue of conscripting women liable for military service was resolved by parliament through a clear imperative norm of the law because ahead of passing amendments to legislation on military registration and military service, it was stipulated in the Cabinet resolution that women can be mobilized exclusively with their consent,” Venislavskyi emphasized.'
