In a fall call-up, Russia is drafting 130,000 more young men for compulsory service, based on a decree signed by President Putin on Friday. Men aged 18-27 will be recruited for a one-year period from Oct.1 and Dec.31, however, this latest conscription drive will not involve sending this new batch to fight in Ukraine, the Kremlin said.
Deputy head of the military’s mobilization department, Rear Admiral Vladimir Tsimlyansky, sought to assure in a briefing, “There are no plans for additional mobilization measures.”
The defense ministry previously said they are taking long-term steps to reach Putin’s goal of increasing the national armed forces’ combat personnel from 1.15 million to 1.5 million.
The last draft came in the spring, which conscripted 147,00 men, and thus with this new fall drive a total of 277,000 will have been conscripted in 2023.
While new conscripts will not be sent to fight in Ukraine, for the first time they will be drawn from the newly “reunited” regions of the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics, and the Zaporozhye and Kherson oblasts:
Conscription for military service in what Moscow describes as Russia’s new regions is regulated by a so-called constitutional law on admission to the Russian Federation, according to Russian state news agency TASS.
According to the law, the autumn 2023 conscription round will include the newly annexed territories for the first time.
Russia is meanwhile celebrating one year since these territories were declared ‘legally’ part of the Russian Federation, according to remarks of Putin Saturday.
“A year ago, on September 30, a defining and truly historic event took place when agreements were signed to incorporate four new constituent entities into the Russian Federation,” he said in a video address, according to TASS.
He hailed the occasion on which “millions of residents of Donbass and the Kherson and Zaporozhye regions made their choice to be with their Fatherland,” saying further: “This conscious, long-awaited, hard-won and genuinely popular decision was made collectively through referendums in full compliance with international norms.”
One year ago it was noted by media sources that Russia was annexing lands roughly the size of Portugal…
“People showed courage and integrity in the face of attempts to intimidate and deprive them of their right to determine their own future, their destiny, and to take away something every person values, namely, culture, traditions, and mother tongue, in a word, everything that was loathed by nationalists and their Western patrons who orchestrated a coup in Kiev in 2014 and then unleashed a full-scale civil war and terror against dissenters and organized blockades, constant shelling, and punitive actions in Donbass,” Putin described, reiterating his rationale for the “special military operation”.

All white…………no niggers-faggot/pedophiles or cunts………what a REAL military should at least look like.
GODSPEED to these soldiers defending their HOMELAND !
Contrast them to the rabble in mercan faggot force.
They pretend to defend a land without borders.
A land where mentally ill male democrat faggots read stories/groom children while democrat CUNTMOTHER looks on with glee.
A land where stolen elections are normal.
A land where nothing matters and anything goes in pursuit of a shekel.
The Biden Regime will offer permanent residency and a mucho grande Dinaro signing bonus to the border jumpers and fill the ranks of the military out with them, “doing the jobs that Americans won’t do”.
Then they’ll probably turn on the USA much like the Visagoths did to the Romans and Roman empire collapse American style will get into full gear.
Wow…so much hate.
Since when is truth hate?
I see a meme of the American Fruitloops Expeditionary Forces up Against the Serious Russian forces in our future.

I imagine Russia is also working on new low tech Directed Energy Weapons:
Basically they now use an POWERED loudspeaker system with a tape that broadcasts incorrect pronouns on a loop.
Right.
Because the “American New Army Legion of Fruitloop Unified Corp Kooks Europe Recovery” divisions would all boycott the war over Russia’s use of anti LGTB hate speech.
Its a girlcott in the new democrat faggot/cunt army.
The US will respond with loudspeakers looping The Biden’s incoherent mumbling from his “speech” to the UN
As much as I enjoy putin humiliating nato(us gov) conscription/draft are just other words for the state owns you. There are many crimes for forcing people to do something they don’t want to. As usual when the state does it then it’s okay.
Following any Rule of Law is also enslavement.
Change my mind
There is moral law – don’t kill, steal, etc. Then there is immoral law – suck my cock because it’s the law. Following moral law is not enslavement it’s just being a decent person. And so there is a big difference between doing what is morally right and being told to do something that is immoral by the use of force. In this case stealing someone’s time at best and perhaps life or causing harm to others at worst.
Not one in a million is fit to hold power over others and for those that seek this power not one in infinity. Change my mind.
Well written. I am conflicted about the draft. It seems behavior better suited for a nation more inclined to authoritarianism. However, there are probably many more men who value their lives more than their ideology. In an existential crisis a draft may be necessary to insure the survival of the group. Ambivalent wars are much harder to attract volunteers, i.e. WWII v. Vietnam.
Now you forgot to mention when conscription (a/k/a military service to be prepared to potentially defend the country) is moral.
The law states you must drive on the right hand side of the road, unless you live on some backwards island.
Is that enslavement?
Who gives a fuck. We’re slaves already, and perhaps that hasn’t seeped through your thick skull yet.
Conscprition is enslavement (period), anyone who thinks otherwise has their head so far up Hillary Clintons snatch there is no hope of your salvation.
I upvoted you for the courage to write about mother Hillarys cooter.
Hyperbole?
Or Hyperbarfy?
Hillary, hypebole,
Walking dead, imperfect,
hyperbarfy…
Applogies to ebony and ivory.
poot’n ??? 🤣🤣🤣
Part-n-Parcel. Merely a Co-Captain of the Global Synchronized Swimming Team.
G.S.S.T.
Does WHAT he is told. WHEN he is told.
Wishful Thinking? Otherwise.
What’s that saying “All the world’s indeed a cringe…?”
Putins plan is, to send the recruits to bakery schools, then, to infiltrate the puSA where they open up bakeries all across the land, and deny service to all the alphabet freaks.
Do these kids even shave yet?
I would guess the 27 year olds do.
I won’t argue the morals of conscription, however, there is a reason for Putin’s actions. Merkel and others said that they negotiated and signed the Minsk agreement to buy time for Ukraine to prepare for war. Putin has been slowly but surely mobilizing for WWIII. He used the holding tactic in eastern Ukraine to buy time to get his armament factories in high gear, to build tanks, jets and ICBMs and to get the troops amassed, armed and clothed. It took time to gear up just to make the uniforms, helmets, rations and small arms for what they know is coming. Washington and NATO will not back down, Putin knows he will have to fight. Hell he has been fighting NATO and American forces already but just under cover. Putin has lined up allies where we have just pissed most of the world off.
The Nazi’s stormed across the eastern border and caught Stalin unprepared. Don’t expect that this time.
TRICKY dick made the ‘official’ announcement that the ‘New & Improved’ seat of evil would be Hecho en Chine
And indeed, It is.
Same people. Same picture.
Stalin was mere weeks away from invading German. He’d already invaded Finland.
Read “Icebreaker” by Victor Suvorov. After the Soviet Union fell, he was allowed into
all the Soviet military archives, spending 20 years researching the topic. Stalin was ready to invade. Hitler beat him to the punch.
Trump brags about rebuilding the US. military while what I read it’s full of fags.
It was Biden that kicked the men out with his “extremist” purge and vaccine mandates. It was Biden that recruited the fags with rainbow flags. Try the HuffPo, they will love you there.
Spring 2023: 147,000
Fall 2023: 130,000
“Putin is running out of men to conscribe”!!1!
I’m guessing the Russian’s MIC needs to milk the war, like all the MICs of every country. at least with a draft people would wake up and realize they could actually be involved in a dumb war and may actually speak up.
The big difference between their MIC and ours is cost. Their howitzer shells cost $600 while ours cost $6000. Years ago an M16 cost the U.S. military $600 while an AK-47 sold for 48 bucks, and 30 years later the damn M16/A2/AR-15 is still a POS that still isn’t reliable.
The difference is their MIC is designed to build the best military they can with the least amount of money. Our MIC is designed to build obscenely overpriced junk that makes the maximum profits.
The MIC has to pay off every person in Congress to vote for trillion dollar defense budgets, so they have little left over to make enough weapons to actually fight a war.
In addition, they have every incentive to engineer the systems to not work, so they can go back to Congress year after year to get more money to fix them.
The Osprey was so poorly engendered that after 20 years they have given up and are scrapping the things… they will probably send them to Zelenski if they cannot get the idiots in Europe to buy them.
The F35 is another mis-engineered POS that among many other problems, randomly ejects its pilots for some reason they cannot figure out.
The leaders in China, and Russia are busy trying to build empires, while the leaders in the US and Europe are busy trying to steal all the money they can from their people. It is not hard to understand why shit is going sideways.
That map is over a YEAR old. I haven’t looked at ZH comments in forever but only one guy noticed that it has Kherson held by Russia? jfc people have drank the koolaid.
