Russia is introducing a year-round military conscription system.

President Vladimir Putin signed a law that changes the very logic of conscription in Russia. Formally, everything remains as before: recruits will be sent to their units twice a year, in the spring and fall. But the entire preparatory process—medical examinations, psychological assessments, committee meetings, paperwork—will now run nonstop. Every day, all year round.

So, there's no longer any "off-season." A summons could arrive at any moment.

The law on military conscription applies to men between the ages of 18 and 30.

On paper, the rule remains the same: conscripts cannot be sent to a combat zone without their consent and a signed contract.

The context is clear: the special operation is ongoing, the army needs personnel, and the state is proactively adjusting the system for a steady supply of troops. No sudden mobilizations—instead, a smooth but steady process.

Officially, the new conscription system will make life easier for military registration and enlistment offices and improve the quality of recruit selection.

Is this news?! They've been gloating about it on TikTok for a while now, at least since yesterday...

[Nexcom]

Why are they gloating? That someone will go to serve?

[Most polite]

And on this matter too...

[Nexcom]

Well, let them gloat and vomit. So, they signed off on the reservists. In terms of deploying them to guard facilities. When will that actually start working...

[Most polite]

As with the reservists...there will be every other place.
You either officially declare war or cease military operations.
This is a propaganda site, filled mostly with turbo-patriots, and they don't even notice that the goal of the war has changed several times already. Sometimes it was protecting the population of Donbass, which wasn't even mentioned at the Istanbul talks, sometimes it was raising the status of the Russian language and reducing the size of the Ukrainian army...
Otherwise, it's all denification, demilitarization, ugh, damn.

[Tagan]

What's wrong with the reservists? How do you know what's going on with us?

You either officially declare war or cease military operations.

Oh yeah, we forgot to ask you. Teach Russia how to fight. Deal with your Basmachi first.

This is a propaganda site and mostly turbo patriots have gathered here.

Having listened to enough runaway liberals?
This is a Russian website, not some Kazakh one. What's wrong with you? It's like you were dragged here by the ears.

[Volga-1980]

Why are you so quick to attack him? He was stating a fact about the powers that be vacillating over the operation's goals and objectives. As for teaching Russia to fight, if you're not on your own, you have no moral right to even mention it. And as soon as something goes wrong, you're instantly a liberal, etc. You're completely stupid, aren't you?

[Tagan]

Regarding teaching Russia to fight, if you are not on your own, then you have no moral right to even talk about it.

Oh really?!
So, this character from Kazakhstan can do that? And how, in your eyes, has the Kazakh "military" earned the right to discuss who should fight and how?

And yes, as soon as something happens, you immediately become a liberal, etc., you are completely stupid, aren't you?

We look at the book - do we see a fig? Well, we're clearly no dumber than you.

[Most polite]

Yes, everything is wrong with the reservists, but you, like an ostrich, have hidden your head in the sand😁
Unlike you, we don't have any Basmachi; none of our Caucasians even thinks of breaking the law.

[Tagan]

Everything is wrong with the reservists.

So, I'm curious about what exactly? You in Kazakhstan know better how you present things here.
Where did your Basmachi go? Maybe our guys calmed them down? It seems you yourselves haven't had the time. Just laziness, I suppose.
Well, I just don't get it, you're such masters of the language here. And you manage to advise us on how to fight and what's wrong with us, and so on. And yet, when there's something completely incomprehensible right under your noses, you call it Russia. Why is that? You're the experts, God forbid.))
There's another interesting point. Those hohol-like drones on your part. Oh, I wish you hadn't gotten on our nerves...

[Most polite]

Another victim of pornographic propaganda😁
Your reservists are still with us on a part-time basis, although many have moved on. Frankly, some have even returned home; everyone chooses their own path.
You don't know how to fight, after all, "meat assaults" weren't invented in Kazakhstan, and that's some kind of indicator. You had Prigozhin, but he was eliminated too, like they were playing around with a grenade on board.
They pour wild nonsense into your ears and people like you swallow it.
As for the 22nd year, any military man will explain to you what functions they performed. Not a single Russian soldier ever fired a shot; they weren't even allowed into the city. Those same Armenians, for example, moved freely around Almaty 😁

[Tagan]

Your reservists are still working with us part-time.

You're a bit confused about what reservists are. Those you have are mostly runaway, near-liberals who have nothing to do with reservists.
So you yourself have become a victim of "porn propaganda".

Not a single Russian soldier fired a shot; they weren't even allowed into the city.

Well, that was enough.

You don't know how to fight, because "meat assaults" weren't invented in Kazakhstan, and this is kind of an indicator.

How is that? Then who do you think knows how to fight? You?
So where did you and your "warriors" check in? Don't worry – nowhere.

The same Armenians, for example, moved freely around Almaty 😁

Yes, the Armenian army is certainly a formidable force! Just like you.

[Most polite]

Not a single one of my questions was answered, only deep resentment towards the ungrateful one😁
If you don't know what a reservist is and what they're supposed to do, you'd better keep quiet. A reservist doesn't belong to your incomprehensible, near-liberal category at all.
"Meat assault" is not my formulation, your war correspondents have been mentioning it all along!!!
Our border guards fought in Tajikistan with dignity. I hope for the last time.
And regarding the Basmachi, why are you so modestly silent? Hasn't Adam Kadyrov received the Hero of Russia award yet?! 🤮

[Tagan]

You don't have a split personality, by any chance? You were asking me questions, weren't you? Seriously?! And when?

If you don’t know what a reservist is and what he should do, then it would be better to keep quiet.

You'd better be sniffling. In Russia, these are citizens who previously served in the Armed Forces or other security agencies and are currently in the reserves, having previously signed a contract with the Russian Ministry of Defense to remain in the reserves.

Our border guards fought in Tajikistan with dignity. I hope for the last time.

And after this you imagined yourself great, invincible and the best?

And regarding the Basmachi, why did you remain so modestly silent? Hasn't Adam Kadyrov received the Hero of Russia title yet?!

He hasn't received it and he won't. But don't be the one making fun of him. You have far more of these "awardees."
Regarding the ungrateful's deep resentment. Are you talking about yourself? Russia has enslaved you, according to the latest fashion trends.

Hmm, dyslexia is a pretty common scourge on this platform😁Liberty and reservists, what's the difference between us, maybe it's age or legal?🤔
We're snoring in two holes, are we still looking for arguments?😁
The border guards fought, but I didn't say a word about us being the best or anything... so you're lying, kid.
Meat assault, is this a disposal or a feat?
Could seasoned military personnel really have been playing around with a grenade on board?
Although what can you expect from you, you armchair ultra-patriot

[Tagan]

Hmm, dyslexia is a pretty common affliction on this platform.

Maybe you brought her here? Although you don't fully understand what it really is.

The border guards fought, but I didn't say a word about us being the best or anything... so you're lying, kid.

I didn't lie, I asked a question. Open your eyes.
But look for the unknown interlocutor to whom you asked some questions, "old man".

Although what can you expect from you, you armchair ultra-patriot

Yeah, so you have a saddle instead of a sofa, I suppose?
Well, it's no more from you, if anything, an unrecognized "commander".

In short, you've lost it, you couch potato.🤮
Not interested...

Are you turning on your smartass? Aren't you laughing at yourself?))
You, friend of the steppes, remind me of Zelya in some way. He also speaks outrageous things from a parallel reality, he also defeats everyone, and there is no one cooler or smarter than him.
Well, it's no fun, you can get out. Everything here is wrong for you, and everyone here is wrong for you, but you're still grazing here, nonetheless. You still can't leave without saying goodbye.
You, alien, should look for your fellow human beings elsewhere, like censor.net, UNIAN, or the like. You'd quickly find common ground there.

[Right hand of the eye]

The purpose of the war has changed several times already. Sometimes it was to protect the population of Donbass—they didn't even mention that at the Istanbul talks—and sometimes it was to improve the status of the Russian language and reduce the size of the Ukrainian army...
Otherwise, it's all denification, demilitarization, ugh, damn.

And also, preventing NATO's eastward expansion... And also, there were goals... But none of them contradict each other, and all of them must be achieved. Who's to blame that there are so many of them?

[Most polite]

Don't you think this is just empty talk?!

[Right hand of the eye]

No..., I'm definitely not imagining things...)))
And you?

It seems to me that you simply don't remember what was being promoted on all channels in the first days and months. Then something went wrong...

Hello, in my opinion, denazification is progressing successfully, especially among the male population. Otherwise, you've made a good point.

[Simargl]

They can and should.
Victory will turn into betrayal when they realize that no one talked about increasing quotas, and then they read it carefully and are crushed by the fact that the draft itself will remain the same - twice a year.

You are my baby, I served my conscription 40 years ago in the decent army.
Well, TikTok is a harmless social platform for every taste, not this local gathering of ultra-patriots...couch potatoes😁

The entire preparatory process—medical examinations, psychological assessments, committee meetings, paperwork—will now run without interruption. Every day, all year round.

So conscripts won't be sitting in crowds at military registration and enlistment offices twice a year, but in small groups?! Holy shit! What's going on?! Has anyone here come to their senses?!

the state is adjusting the system in advance for a stable replenishment of troops

How does "smearing" the medical examination throughout the year relate to this statement?!

Officially, they say the new conscription system will make life easier for military registration and enlistment offices.

Between conscriptions, it's empty. It's a little more lively now, but in peacetime, it's empty.

will improve the quality of recruit selection

Well, if doctors devote more time to them...

[Vitaly.17]

When we switched to a year-long service, the concepts of "grandfathers" and "scoops" disappeared from the soldier's vocabulary. A "spirit" would immediately become a "demobilized" after six months. Now, with year-round conscription, there's a whole new world of hazing, which, of course, doesn't exist officially.
It would also be good to pass a law prohibiting those who haven't served in the army from working in government agencies. Then the popularity of military service would skyrocket.

[GUSAR]

They wrote to you in Russian – New recruits will be sent to units twice a year, in spring and autumn.Nothing will change in the relationship in the unit, Damn, for some people nothing gets through at all, right?

[Alexey Lantukh]

So conscripts won't be sitting in crowds at military registration and enlistment offices twice a year, but in small groups?! Holy shit! What's going on?! Has anyone here come to their senses?!

I don't understand what's new? In the USSR, medical examinations for future conscripts were held year-round, except in the summer. Groups of people from businesses and educational institutions usually attended the examinations. But during the draft, the medical examination was specifically for those destined for the army, even though they had already passed the examination at age 16 when they received their registration papers.

Federal Law No. 170-FZ of July 2, 2013, "On Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation Regarding the Implementation of Measures to Enhance the Prestige and Attractiveness of Conscript Military Service," which came into effect on January 1, 2014. It's sort of there... But the severity of the law, you know what else.

[Pavel Patrashov]

Isn't it time to adopt the experience of the decaying West? Make the army entirely contract-based? Why waste public money on children with weapons?

Abyss vacancies in the civil service

[mt3276]

The law on military conscription applies to men between the ages of 18 and 30.

When there was a "discussion" of changes to the conscription system, deputies like Kartapolov said that conscription would be carried out from 21 to 30 years of age, so that men with life experience, not just high school students, would serve in the army.
As a result, they are conscripting people from 18 to 30 (and not until 27 as it was before).
No one can be trusted.

[Meaning of life]

Year-round conscription will allow Russians to "not wait in dread for spring."
Year-round conscription will allow Russians to "wait in terror for the dawn."

[Nexcom]

Well, our "agents of influence" spread fake news online that they'd announced mobilization. It's good that it was officially announced – it's fake, don't fall for it.
And also, two degenerates, about 15 years old, knelt before the American flag, kissed it, and declared Trump their father. Tsargrad posted the video on MAX. They're the ones who definitely need to be helped to straighten out their brains (if they even have one).
This all happened here in Yekaterinburg...

[Old_geologist]

That's how it was under the Soviet Union—all sorts of commissions throughout the year, and the actual draft in the spring and fall. I had no idea it was different now...it'll be 40 years since I was discharged.

[Pavel Patrashov]

Why conscripts? Kids with guns? Isn't it time to learn from the decaying West? Motivated adults? There's still the National Guard, plenty of motivated men to step up at the first whistle. And let the kids at home raise the demographics, study, work. No one's giving away apartments anymore; they need to be bought...

[Pavel Patrashov]

There are so, so many of them here!

[the same doctor]

Any change initially disrupts the usual workflow, and then, perhaps, something will improve. I expect the new regulations to dramatically increase conscription spending, but I'm not sure what improvements will result. Like, say, a three-day medical commission, or having doctors come in every day...
