Antares
Respected Leader
Yksi ryssäläisen bloggari kommentoi sitä, miksi moni siviili ei ole halukas allekirjoittamaan sopimusta vaikka rahallinen korvaus on hyvin suuri (ketju on käytännössä yksi pitkä suora lainaus):
Russian blogger Alex Kartavykh confirms that civilians are wary of signing very lucrative contracts because they know the Russian army consistently deceives:
The issue is not with the civilian authorities, but with the employer — with how the Army has positioned itself.
Since 2023, when contract soldiers for wartime were recruited en masse, many thousands of these contract soldiers have encountered deception from the employer and brought this knowledge home during leaves or after being discharged as disabled.
They shared with those around them — acquaintances, friends, simply interested applicants — how everything works. And it works like this:
— During recruitment, the Army promises a contract for 1 year.
The first groups of contract soldiers sincerely believed that they were not mobilized serfs. And that they would be sent home. After rest, some considered signing a new contract, ‘if they weren’t screwed over the first time.’
They were screwed — new contract soldiers also serve without a fixed term, until the partial mobilization ends, just like pre-war contract soldiers, mobilized soldiers, and short-term contract soldiers.
Deception about the length of service is the main reason why decent people started to back away from contract offers somewhere around summer 2024. At that time, more convicts, homeless people, and drug addicts began to be recruited.
— Second — deception by the Army represented by specific division/brigade commanders and military units (almost all) regarding WHO and WHERE a particular applicant will serve.
Many decent people with higher and specialized education wanted to become UAV operators, artillerymen, repair company members, or work in communications. Including people with serious health limitations.
They were deceived again! The policy of army commanders: ‘everyone to the assault.’ Even if a person personally showed initiative and requested specialties requiring higher or secondary specialized education, they were still sent through 1-3 assaults until the first injury.
Only then were they assigned according to their request.
Such a policy by commanders makes personal motivation of qualified contract applicants meaningless. Therefore, from summer 2024, most such people refused the idea of signing a contract.
Instead, they began recruiting poorly motivated people from marginalized groups, homeless people, and the unmotivated part of convicts.
— Third — deception about the length and quality of training.
Usually, the duration is not disclosed, but regional contract advertisements sometimes stated 1-2 months. In fact — until the beginning of this year, it was 14 days, now 21 days. For most applicants, this is insufficient.
Moreover, there are many stories where training was interrupted. And the applicant literally died in their first battle 4-13 days after signing the contract.
These stories were also brought back by newly contracted soldiers and demobilized disabled veterans during leaves and discharge.
In summary.
The main reason for the decline in those willing to sign a contract with the Russian Ministry of Defense (especially among motivated and educated people) is the policy of consistent deception of the applicant by the employer. Deception on the most important points for the applicant:
— Indefinite servitude until the end of the special military operation instead of the promised 1 year of service.
— Assignment exclusively to assault infantry, ignoring military occupational specialty and education, and the applicant’s personal wishes.
— Short, insufficient training periods + policy of interrupting training and prematurely sending new contract soldiers into their first battle.
