"4,195 amendments were submitted to (the bill on) mobilization," he wrote.

According to him, tomorrow, February 27, the work of the Committee on National Security, Defense and Intelligence will begin on the preparation of the bill for the second reading and, accordingly, consideration of amendments.

"If everything goes well, then the bill will begin to be considered in the Verkhovna Rada from March 6. Since there are many amendments, this process in the session hall may drag on for a couple of days," Zhelezniak added.
