I get that, but I've asked a few times and got no answer as to how they can expect to stay in LOS long time if not qualifying on retirement. Is there some special long stay visa for Russians escaping the draft? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't about Ukranine conscription and no, you're wrong again, they do allow conscription age men to leave if they have children to look after. Male Ukrainian nationals can cross the border if they are financially supporting three or more children under the age of 18, are single fathers of children under 18, or have children or are guardians of children with disabilities "All" opposition parties are not banned either, those that have been banned are pro-Russian political parties that engage in anti-Ukrainian activities Time for you to start substantiating your posts because you're spreading false info. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodbye. What do you mean and what.....lol It proves your claim: "In Ukraine they are conscripting by FORCE no men between the ages of 16 and 60 are allowed to leave. They take them off the streets" Is false that's what. Exceptions: when a man can leave Ukraine under martial law - who raise three or more children under the age of 18; - who raise a child (children) under the age of 18 on their own; - dependent on a child with a disability under the age of 18 or an adult child who is a person with a disability of the I or II group, until he/she reaches 23 years of age; - adoptive parents, guardians, trustees, foster parents, who are dependent on orphans or children deprived of parental care under the age of 18; - engaged in constant care for persons in need, in the absence of other persons who can provide such care; - who left for other states for permanent residence, which is documented accordingly; - applicants for professional higher and higher education, trainee assistants, graduate students and doctoral students studying abroad in full-time or dual forms of education (students, listeners). https://visitukraine.today/blog/102/exceptions-when-a-man-can-leave-ukraine-under-martial-law Edited February 28, 2023 by Bkk Brian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ukraine war 'hitting Russian birth rate' as invasion's first anniversary looms Western officials gave a revealing insight into how the conflict is having an impact on Russia, almost 12 months since Vladimir Putin ordered Russian troops across the border Western officials delivered a scathing Bookmark Kremlin tyrant Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine has triggered a fall in Russia’s birth rate, Western officials revealed today. With young Russian men fighting and dying in the war - and other families fleeing their homeland to avoid being dragged into the conflict - the impact on the nation’s future is already unfolding, sources said. “Our expectation is that we are going to see some really serious social decline,” said officials. “Very large numbers of young, educated Russians have fled the country; there are already some early figures coming in showing significant declines in the birth rate. “We are seeing an increase in violent crime, repression continues to increase (and) propaganda continues to intensify.” They added: “A huge shadow hangs over Russia’s present and its future.” https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/ukraine-war-hitting-russian-birth-29234714 Edited February 28, 2023 by 3NUMBAS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
