The Kremlin’s decision stipulates that these persons must sign a contract with the Russian Ministry of Defense for at least one year in order to apply for Russian citizenship.
According to this order, relatives of mercenaries will also be able to apply for Russian citizenship: wives, children and parents.
The ruling regime in Russia is currently actively trying to replenish the ranks of the occupying troops in order to continue its aggression against Ukraine.
The possibility of receiving Russian citizenship could be a tempting argument for migrant workers, mainly from Central Asian countries, whom the Kremlin is trying to recruit to serve in the Russian army.
There have also been reports that Russia is trying to recruit mercenaries from more exotic countries, such as Nepal and Cuba.
