Peskov explained the reasons for the postponement of the start of the autumn draft
The head of the press service of the Kremlin, Dmitry Peskov, explained the reasons for the postponement of the start of the autumn call to active military service. Instead of October 1st, it will start on November 1st.
The press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation gave his comment on this issue to the journalists of the agency RIA News.
He said that the shift in the deadline for the start of conscription should facilitate the work of military registration and enlistment offices, which have been experiencing significant overload in recent days. After all, the adoption of this decision will lead to the fact that the flows of mobilized citizens and conscripts will be divorced in time.
- explained Peskov.
Usually, the autumn call lasts from October 1 until the New Year. Now it will start a month later, but will end, as in previous years, on December 31st.
A day earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree on conscription for military service. It is expected to call this year 120 recruits, whose age is 18-27 years.
Unlike previous years, this year also sees a partial mobilization of reservists. It was announced on September 21st. As the head of the Russian defense department Sergei Shoigu explained, this decision was caused by the need to control the line of contact with the enemy in the zone of military special operation, the length of which is about a thousand kilometers. It is also required to strengthen control over the territories liberated during the NWO.
