Think they are circumventing the law
Students in the country can avoid conscription while they are studying.
– But this trick makes it possible for military registration and recruitment offices to circumvent the law and call up students from universities and students from high schools, technical schools and other schools, warns the Conscripts School.
On your Telegram channel the organization has shared a photo of such a consent form, and is warning the country’s students to sign it.
– They deceive 18-year-old boys
According to the Vernepliktiges school’s director, Aleksej Tabalov, there have been reports from all over Russia that students have received the declaration of consent, writes Danish TV2.
– They deceive and twist the heads of 18-year-old boys, who of course do not understand the legal consequences. Under various pretexts, with the help of persuasion and threats, they are forced to sign the declarations, Tabalov believes.
