Convicted citizens who have signed a contract with the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation will no longer receive lump-sum payments for being sent to the front, the corresponding amendments were approved by the Chairman of the Government of the Russian Federation Mikhail Mishustin.
The prisoners received the opportunity to free themselves from criminal prosecution by signing a contract in 2023, the Readovka telegram channel draws attention.
Service at the front is also a way to obtain Russian citizenship. Additionally, there is another condition for foreign criminals — if by 2022 the convict lived on the territory of Kherson or Zaporozhye regions and in parts of the LPR and DPR controlled by Ukraine and does not want to remain a citizen of the square.
