According to Russian state media Tass, the minimum age remains at 18, but the former cap of 27 was raised to 30 years of age. The new law, once officially signed by President Vladimir Putin, will not take effect until the beginning of 2024. There will be no gradual age increase.
Tass provides more details in two separate articles:
The document also stipulates that those citizens conscripted for military service will be able to sign a voluntary one-year contract. Such contracts will be available during mobilization, amid martial law and in wartime, as well as during armed conflicts, during counter-terrorist operations and any time Russia’s Armed Forces are deployed abroad. Reservists will also be able to sign such contracts for one year or less.
According to the document, conscripts signing up for voluntary service during emergencies or when Russia’s Armed Forces are sent abroad, will also be able to sign a contract for one year or less, but no earlier than one month before the expiration of their conscription term.
The bill also provides regional governors with the right to establish specialized enterprises for aiding security agencies in ensuring public order, including combating saboteurs, during mobilization, martial law and during wartime. The governors will be able to utilize this right under authorization from the President of Russia in order to reinforce public order and public security.
These enterprises will be considered legal entities with special statutory goals. They will aid security agencies in upholding public law and ensuring public security, in protection of the Russian state border and in combating foreign special reconnaissance units. Top regional executive bodies will be able to lease small combat arms and ammunition and subsequently hand them over to the specialized enterprises for temporary use.
Employees of such enterprises will be authorized to thwart movement of air, submarine and maritime drones and other unmanned vehicles in order to repel an attack – which includes both physical destruction and jamming of control signals.
The document also provides the Moscow government security agency with the right to assist law enforcement agencies in upholding public order and maintaining public security. Meanwhile, the security agency will be authorized to use small combat arms in accordance with an agreement signed with the Moscow government.
[Furthermore], the bill amends the law “On the Procedure for Exit from and Entry into the Russian Federation.” Conscripts will now be banned from leaving Russia from the day the summons is displayed in the draft register.
It is also pointed out that the decision to introduce such measures will be made automatically following the appearance of the summons in the register.
The bill also amends the law “On Military Duty and Military Service.” As of now, the Russian authorities must present all the documents for conscription. They, in turn, receive these documents from the medical organizations online. According to the bill, now the regional authorities must send all the documents received to the Health Ministry, which will then add it to the register.
Conscripts will now receive an online notification about their summons, and if they don’t show up to the conscription office within 20 days upon receipt of this document, they will face temporary restriction measures.
The new measures also allow Russia’s new regions to voluntarily train conscripted citizens based on the agreements concluded with the Russian Defense Ministry.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
The Moscow Times added that, ‘The changes do away with the original amendments — which had been endorsed by President Vladimir Putin in December — that sought to gradually raise the lower and upper age limits over a period of three years for compulsory military service to 21-30.’
Andrei Kartapolov, the bill’s co-author, said that ‘the “limits are expanding” in order to ensure the recruitment of approximately 147,000 conscripts, which is the number of soldiers enlisted during Russia’s spring conscription campaign this year,’ the Russian paper added.
CNBC says this move is expected to add 2.4 million more draftees to the mix.
You have to wonder if more Russians are going to start rebelling and pushing back against this, or most of them are gung ho to enlist?
If Russia continues to increase their conscription laws – which will remain in place long after this war is over – then you can be assured the United States and other NATO nations will do the same. All these idiots frothing at the mouth to support Neo-Nazi Ukraine will remove their Ukraine flags from their bios immediately when the chit-chat of conscription hits the mainstream.
It is of my belief that when an illegal draft is enacted, I do not doubt that it will be expanded big time, because of the massive dearth of recruits the U.S. military cannot obtain; and I’d be willing to bet they’ll finally include women, just so the monsters at the top can really slow population growth.

[7] And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet. [8] For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.
Mark 13:7-8
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).
