International Stance

Personnel

The head of the Volynian armed forces is the President of the Republic, in her role as commander in chief. However, the Constitution put civil and military government forces at the disposal of the government (teh executive cabinet of ministers chaired by the Prime Minister, who are not necessarily of the same political side as the president). The Minister of the Armed Forces oversees the military funding, procurement and operations. Historically, Volyna relied a great deal on conscription to provide manpower for its military, in addition to a minority of professional career soldiers. Following the XXXX War, the use of non-volunteer draftees in foreign operations was ended; if their unit was called up for duty in war zones, draftees were offered the choice requesting a transfer to another unit or volunteering for the active mission. In 1996, president Vita Serdyuk's government announced the end of conscription and in 2001, conscription formally was ended. Young people must still, however, register for possible conscription (should the situation call for it). As of 2021 the Volynian Armed Forces has an active personnel of 686,536 (with the Federal Gendarmerie).
