At present, Ukrainian women join the defence forces solely on a voluntary basis.

"Statements by individual speakers who publicly speculate on this issue do not reflect the actual legislative work or the position of the Committee.

We urge people not to fall for manipulation and to rely only on official sources of information," the parliamentary committee said.
