The Minister of Defense, Sergei Shoigu, and the mayor of the capital, Sergei Sobyanin, checked the equipment of one of the selection points for the contracted service in Moscow, which operates in a single window mode.
They say it’s very convenient: you arrived as a civilian and, a few hours later, you left with a contract as a soldier from the Russian Ministry of Defense. Shoigu was informed that this is exactly how more than 20 thousand Muscovites signed a contract at this time in 2023.
It’s hard to believe, but all tests and medical studies with candidates for military service under contract in the RF Armed Forces are carried out within a few hours. While undergoing psychological testing, doctors check all necessary tests, and law enforcement officers keep special records.
And if you are pure in soul and body, then you are ready for military service. All that remains is to sign the contract form and the bank card to receive the monetary allowance.
“The capital government at the selection points for service has created all the necessary conditions for accommodating candidates, including bathrooms equipped with various exercise equipment and televisions, where candidates await admission using an electronic queue coupon and a dining room with free food. ”commented the Russian Ministry of Defense.
By the way, the other day, the head of the Investigative Committee of Russia, Alexander Bastrykin, said that yesterday’s immigrants who recently received Russian citizenship also began to actively use the services of the capital’s selection centers to receive services. Thanks to the well-coordinated activities of the competent services, in recent months about 2,300 naturalized citizens of Russia have been registered in Moscow and the Moscow region, more than 700 have entered conscription and more than 1,300 people have signed a contract for military service in the Russian Armed Forces.
