Rusia vrea să recruteze și mai mulți deținuți pentru războiul din Ucraina. Guvernul elimină noi restricții privind condamnările penale

The Russian government has proposed legislation to allow more convicted individuals to sign contracts with the Ministry of Defense for military service in Ukraine. This initiative expands the list of offenses that do not prevent enlistment. The changes aim to simplify the recruitment process for the military. Various crimes, including smuggling and illegal intervention in critical infrastructure, will no longer be barriers to joining the armed forces. This recruitment of convicts has been ongoing since the war began, with previous legislative changes allowing those convicted of serious crimes to enlist.
