“In exceptional cases, we can now marry from the age of 16. I see no reason to lower this threshold even more. It is difficult to imagine at what age the Justice Ministry will allow marriage. But I don’t see anything good in it. Existing regulations today are more than enough. If we focus on the same Europe or America, the age there is also far from early, ”she said.
According to Volynets, "objective reasons are needed to change the age of consent."
Earlier it was reported that the Justice Ministry intends to develop a bill correcting the age of marriage. A corresponding initiative is included in the government’s legislative work plan.
