Kremlin Security Legal Adjustments

The Russian ruler also enacted a decree authorizing recruitment throughout the year whereas previously it was possible only during limited periods in cooler seasons. The federation restricts conscripts from being sent to battle, but after their defense commitment they join the reserve forces, putting them at risk of being assigned to combat zones.
