Autumn call for surprises

The Ministry of Defense is preparing another large-scale reform in the system of recruiting the army. Amendments will be developed by September 1. For example, it is planned to increase the draft age to 30 years and reduce the number of universities that provide a respite for students.

Those who shy away from conscription, will be applied even more stringent measures. A young man who himself did not appear at the military registration and enlistment office upon reaching 18 years, is in fact declared a criminal and is restricted in his right to freedom of movement. That is, you can not even go to another city.

And those who did not pass military service, it is proposed to block the road to public office and some professions.

Surely, the current recruits have a lot of questions. The presenters of the Morning of Russia program were voiced by the expert of the Association of Military Political Scientists, Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Perendzhiev.

"I consider many of the conditions to be wrong, because it is a question of limiting civil rights. And it doesn’t matter here whether it is a draftee or not," the specialist said According to Perendzhiev, if there is a need to restrict the movement of recruits, this problem needs to be solved as it is solved with the status of a soldier.

The expert explained that if the state limits the rights of a recruit, then it should compensate for this. For example, if the civil rights of servicemen are limited in some matters, then there are always compensation benefits, said Alexander Perendzhiev.

“Moreover, it’s not difficult to assume that if the rights of a certain category of people are limited, then it will also be easy to restrict other citizens. And this will undoubtedly cause aggression of the society,” the expert stated.

As for the proposal to increase the draft age, Perendzhiev is convinced that this is how the state wants to consolidate the draft service, thus abandoning contract service.

In these cases, only tension between society and the leadership of the armed forces will appear, Alexander Perendzhiev summarized, proposing to act as with the law on the police - to publish on the Internet and give all citizens the opportunity to speak on the new rules.
