Details: Putin has signed a law abolishing the age limit for concluding the first contract with the Russian Armed Forces.

According to the State Duma website, people will now be able to serve in the army under a contract until they reach retirement age (which is 60 for women and 65 for men – ed.).

Russia’s Deputy Defence Minister clarified that it will be possible to sign the first contract for military service in Russia up until the age of 50.

Russian law used to provide that [Russian] citizens aged 18-40, and foreign nationals aged 18-30, could sign their first contract for military service.

On 25 May, the State Duma passed a law in three readings abolishing the age limit for concluding the first contract for military service in Russia.


[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).

  • well, Putin is smart by using older folks to fight, it seems the younger generation are Sissy’s and cry babies!

  • Andy, it seems the younger generation don’t have a brain between all of them! All the younger generation want is everything we have except we had to work 30 years for what we have, and they think we owe it to them to just give them everything they want. and when they don’t get their way they all become cry babies!

    • Exactly, Shari! Have you seen these for example college students that get “triggered” by everything and need to run to a safe space nursery to cuddle a teddy bear and suck their thumbs? They’re gonna be wiped out, guaranteed!

    • I used to be a member of an international honors society called Phi Theta Kappa. I thought it was so neat but then I started to see over the years their liberal agenda. They get their feathers ruffled over a member who went hunting and they get all triggered and ugly when I was promoting my job of selling knives because it’s not “scholastic.”
      A bunch of spoiled, pampered, over-indulged participation trophy recipients! They’re going to die off when America’s fate comes in full throttle and good riddance to them-their little honors club and their scholastic achievements won’t mean Jack squat!

    • That’s the generation you get when you don’t spank your kids when they need it because it “hurts their self esteem” (poor little squirts) and you give them a trophy or a ribbon or a certificate because they participated and you spread that foolish philosophy of “every child is special!” And then they wonder why they have a bunch of narcissistic sociopaths in their 20s, 30s, 40s even their 60s!

  • soldiers here in the good ole USA they need to do their hair and makeup before going to war instead of putting on their fatigues they put on their rainbow tutu!

    • Haha, and Emma needs her two sodomite mommies.
      Did you see that Army recruitment ad with Corporal Emma and her two mommies? What a travesty. The revolutionary war, war of 1812, and civil war veterans are rolling in their graves over what our military has turned into!

  • Haha, no I have not seen that one yet, we live in a very sick world! and I agree our forefathers are rolling in their graves!
