Martial law in the new regions of Russia: legal nuances

Since October 20, martial law has been introduced in four new regions of our country. This measure was taken to protect the population living in the aforementioned subjects, and the sovereignty of Russia as a whole.

At the same time, many citizens of our country (especially in the new territories) have questions about the rules of this regime and their impact on everyday life. Lawyer Anton Kornev told about what you need to know about the military position, about legal nuances.

So what do we have. Based on the lawyer's statement, we can conclude that the introduction of martial law does not provide for the "automatic" announcement of general mobilization (it was this question that many were interested in). Nevertheless, citizens can be involved in various activities to maintain the life of the region: the restoration of destroyed facilities, the fight against epidemics, etc.

Regarding the restriction of movement, this measure is not mandatory when martial law is introduced. For example, citizens living in the LPR, DPR, Zaporozhye and Kherson regions can now freely move around the territory of Russia and travel outside it.

Also, measures to isolate citizens of the state with which there is a war are not yet applied in the above-mentioned territories. By the way, quite a lot of people with Ukrainian citizenship live in the territories that have recently become part of Russia.

Not introduced in new regions and restrictions on the sale of drugs, as well as alcohol. At the same time, during the curfew from 23.00 to 4.00 (in some cities from 21.00 to 6.00), citizens must stay at home.

Finally, one of the measures inherent in martial law is the resettlement of residents from dangerous territories. We are seeing something similar today in the Kherson region. But, again, martial law, according to the lawyer, provides for forced evacuation, and the acting head of the aforementioned region declared voluntary.

in general, as usual, stupid window dressing. We have banned the use of drones in Nizhny Novgorod, with the exception of civil services

[Charik]

then everyone except the military should be banned, otherwise there are a lot of people under the civil service

So things are ... but if everything is right, organized according to the mind, there are no inconveniences, special ones, but there will be benefits.

It seems to me that in the Republic of Belarus there are more specific provisions of this law

In accordance with the generally recognized principles and norms of international law, any of the following actions are recognized as an attack, regardless of the declaration of war by another state (other states):

And let's start with the most important legal nuance - what is the current border of Russia on November 1, 2022? From the latest news, Matvienko promised to consult with the population of these regions about borders
Who knows, maybe the meeting has already passed?

[vitvit123]

Do Matvienko's words change the constitution?

Where in the Constitution to read about our borders? I ask without jokes

[vitvit123]

Well, open and read article 65! Is it really such a desire to spread that you don’t want to understand such simple things? Do you really not know that all regions are spelled out in the constitution? What, according to the constitution, is it not so easy to alienate the territory?

Do not confuse soft with warm!!!
I have a simple question, it couldn't be easier - where can I see a map with the official borders of the Russian Federation right now? Poke my nose into the link, please!

[vitvit123]

Are you here or when? You can confuse whatever you want, should I look for a map for you so that the publication is from the moment of joining? There may still be few of them corny in circulation, or maybe they haven’t been printed yet .. in a year, when these cards will be like dirt, you will be modestly silent! they came up with some kind of excuse that wasn’t serious! You pull the owl on the globe again .., as already many times ..

[ALARI]

You want to say that part of our country is occupied? And how will you be modestly silent here when Kherson is handed over? What will be the excuse for a tactical retreat in front of a utterly defeated enemy? It has already been passed and I have already forgotten how many times

[vitvit123]

1. Of course, part of our country is occupied!, and the newly acquired territories are completely liberated? You write some kind of nonsense (sorry) as if you live in a parallel reality ...
2. And where did you get the idea that I will be silent if they surrender Kherson? I really don't understand how to answer your question, some kind of nonsense! How do you know whether I will be silent or not!...
3. Well, again ... in communication with me, you attract words and facts about which I did not say anything!

[Charik]

words, not even Matvienko-constitution change

[vitvit123]

Well, what development of events happened after her words?
After all, it's about nothing! A man tried to pull an owl on a globe, he often does this ... we have thousands of politicians and they all say something .. you don’t need to connect your mind too much to weed out the husk ..
