In great shape. In great shape When drafted into the army

Another conscription company will soon begin in Russia. What is the time frame for the autumn draft of 2018, if there are any innovations, experts say.

Young people of draft age must prepare for military service in the ranks of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. The deadlines for the autumn conscription have been approved, the Ministry of Defense reminds that the conscription can only be made during this period, any deviations are considered illegal.

Passage of compulsory military service

All adult men, citizens of the country who have no contraindications in terms of their status or health, must serve in Russia. Future conscripts must go through a whole range of important events that everyone must go through:

• at the age of 16, it is necessary to get up for military registration and receive a certificate of registration;
• having reached draft age and having received a summons, it is strictly necessary to visit the military commissariat at the designated time;
• The summons must be handed over personally to the conscript against his signature;
• in case of failure to appear on the summons, the legislation provides for administrative and criminal liability.

Dates of the draft company 2018

Immediately, we note that everything you need to know about the autumn conscription into the army is contained in the federal law "On conscription and military service." It also talks about the timing of the draft campaign.

According to article 25, the autumn conscription this year will begin as usual on October 1 and will last for three months, until December 31. It should be noted that before the start of the draft campaign, as a rule, a special decree of the President of Russia is issued, on the basis of which this campaign is carried out. In particular, in it the head of state (who is also the supreme commander in chief) determines the required number of conscripts.

But not for all young people the autumn call begins on the first day of the second autumn month. So, the exception is:

• residents of the Far North: they begin to be called up a month after the official start of the draft campaign, that is, from November 1;
• villagers involved in harvesting: they begin to send summons only on October 15;
• pedagogical workers: for them the autumn draft is not carried out at all in connection with the beginning of the school year.

Life time

In 2018, as before, young people will have to spend 1 year in the army. Earlier, the media scared young men that the term could be increased to 1 year and 8 months, but this information has not been confirmed by anything: the Ministry of Defense is not going to make any changes yet.

Medical Commission

After receiving the summons, a strict medical examination will follow, all future privates of the Russian army will certainly pass it, except for those with a legal delay. The medical commission, after a thorough comprehensive examination, will decide whether the conscript is fit for full service in the army. In total, the current legislation provides for 5 categories of fitness for military service:

• good;
• suitable with few restrictions;
• has limited validity;
• temporarily unsuitable for military service;
• unfit.

It happens when the commission cannot make an unambiguous decision due to various controversial circumstances. The conscript in this case is redirected for an inpatient or outpatient examination at a licensed medical institution. After a full-fledged treatment and the decision of doctors, a new call-up period is assigned. The next important step in sending to the army will be a medical report. A qualified draft board will issue its final verdict to the conscript. According to this conclusion, the future soldier is sent to send:

• for military service;
• call him up for alternative civilian service;
• provide an extension;
• to carry out an exemption from the draft;
• add to the stock;
• to grant freedom from military service according to legal grounds.

Russian legislation provides for enrollment in the reserve upon reaching the age of 27. From this time on, a man is not subject to military service, regardless of his state of health.

New in Fall 2018 Call

The modernization of the Russian army (including the principles and conditions of conscript service) began several years ago, a lot of new things have appeared in the army, but no global changes are expected in the autumn conscription of 2018.

The innovations that appeared earlier are, we recall, the creation of scientific companies. Only senior students and graduates of universities can be in them, and on a competitive basis: in the scientific division of the RF Armed Forces there are only 12 companies with a total number of about 600 people (0.2% of all conscripts), the competition is currently 25 young men per place ...

The conditions for military service have become more comfortable: a soldier is allowed to have a mobile phone (you can use it at certain hours), after lunch they are supposed to have a "quiet hour" - free time that you can spend at your discretion, and the lights out starts half an hour later.

Conscripts are provided with a travel bag (soap, shampoo, creams and other hygiene products). University graduates can enroll in a contract service instead of compulsory military service: they will have to stay in the army longer - 2 years, but this service has a number of advantages (vacation, salary payments, etc.).

The number of recruits who will be drafted in the fall of 2018 has not been announced. In the spring, 128,000 young people rejoined the army.

Which troops will you have to serve?

In 2018, a potential conscript can get into the following types of troops:

• ground troops;
• air Force;
• Navy;
• strategic missile forces;
• space troops;
• airborne troops.

The specialty that the conscript possessed and the state of health are important. Traditionally, only the strongest and most physically hardy young people with a strong psyche and good health are taken to the Airborne Forces.

Who will not be obliged to join the army in 2018

A citizen will not be obliged to go to the 2018 army if he:

• has a permanent job in the structures of the Ministry of Internal Affairs;
• works in the Federal Security Service;
• belongs to the employees of the Ministry of Emergency Situations.

There is an important limitation - if a citizen nevertheless decides to quit, but at that moment he has not turned 27, then he will definitely receive a mandatory summons from the military registration and enlistment office!

Draft conscription will be avoided by:

• adult men with one or more previous convictions;
• citizens who are under investigation for a committed crime or on trial will avoid conscription;
• serving their sentences in a penitentiary institution.
• a student of the university will not serve if he receives full-time education;
• graduate students;
• the appearance of a second child in a legal marriage;
• fathers who, due to insurmountable circumstances, are forced to raise a baby on their own and without support are not subject to the call;
• guardians of elderly citizens who are dependent on sick relatives:
• the ranks of the Russian army will not be joined by young men with very serious health problems.

There are several more categories of citizens who legally may not serve in the army - foreigners who have served in the armed forces of another state and future military personnel who have lost their older brothers during military clashes in hot spots. They will take you into the army if you were expelled from the university and you study by correspondence.

Diseases for which they are not taken into the army

Diseases for which they are not recruited into the army are quite numerous. They can be divided into several large subgroups.

Diseases of the musculoskeletal system

Disorders of the musculoskeletal system, with which they are not taken into the army - 2nd degree scoliosis with a deformation of at least 11 degrees, flat feet, called a bear's foot in the 3rd stage, deformities and other diseases of the hands or feet - for example, the absence of several fingers, arthrosis and arthritis of the second degree or higher, affecting the legs.

Diseases of the organs of vision

Poor vision - an important barrier on the way to military service is cataract, retinal detachment, severe myopia more than -6, progressive farsightedness, glaucoma, eye injuries or the absence of one eye.

Cardiovascular pathology

If the conscript has hypertension - pressure exceeding the threshold of 150 to 90,
chronic vegetative-vascular dystonia, which is rather difficult - periodic fainting and constant dizziness, the presence of heart disease and ischemia. We have listed the most important deviations that occur in real practice.

Hearing problems

The presence of chronic otitis media and complete deafness can become an insurmountable obstacle to military service.

Digestive system diseases

Difficulties with the digestive system may well lead to a delay in military service. Such a reason may be a hernia, which limits the permeability of the intestines, pancreatitis in its chronic form, stomach and duodenal ulcers, hemorrhoids. Gallstone disease is a serious medical condition that interferes with service.

Problems with the genitourinary system

They do not take into the army conscripts with chronic enuresis, urolithiasis and dropsy of the testicle, impaired sexual function and hyperplasia.

Other chronic diseases

An obstacle to the passage of service will be stuttering, seriously distorting speech, diabetes mellitus, obesity above the 2nd degree. Patients with chronic hemorrhoids, tuberculosis, HIV, hepatitis, and oncological diseases are also not useful in military service. Mental health problems are a good reason for being exempt from the army:

• the appearance of obsessive states;
• severe phobias;
• chronic schizophrenia;
• pathology of the respiratory system.

The presence of chronic alcoholics and drug addicts is contraindicated in the army, but it will be strictly necessary to confirm the presence of constant persistent addiction, which is confirmed by the relevant documents!

Postponement from service

A reprieve for a potential soldier is just a temporary opportunity to escape the obligation to serve in the military. Together with its end, you will have to repay your debt to your homeland. An official reason not to go to service for a strictly defined period is:

• a state of temporary unfitness for service;
• caring for a sick relative, for whom there is currently no one to look after;
• the presence of a disabled child under 3 years old;
• a pregnant wife for more than 26 weeks;
• postgraduate students defending their dissertations;
• postponement due to study at a higher or secondary educational institution;
• a deferral for a student who must get time to enter a university or college.

The postponement will be carried out only if the necessary documents are available - a diploma of education, a certificate of admission to graduate school, a medical certificate indicating the presence of serious health problems

The number of postponements that can be implemented is unlimited - you can get them not only after graduation, but also when a student moves from a bachelor's to a master's degree system. It is possible to use the draft deferral only when studying at an officially licensed institution!

Content of the article:

According to tradition, a military conscription should be held annually not only in the fall, but also in the spring. At the same time, the names fully reflect the timing of the massive military conscription.

Terms of military conscription in the Russian Federation in 2018

The draft commissions, as before, must begin their activities within the established timeframes, which are determined at the legislative level, but at the same time with certain nuances.

The term is determined by the current laws of the Russian Federation. It is noted that the beginning falls on April 1st. Despite the fact that this date was originally associated with humor and fun, April Fool's Day, the recruits and their close relatives perceive the day differently. On April 1, an order should be started for further conscription into the army, and the primary task is to fully check the state of health, the deviations of which can be recorded unexpectedly for the person himself.

When does the spring draft end in 2018?

The duration is still 3.5 months. Thus, the spring call starts on April 1st and ends on July 15th.

Graduates of higher education institutions who successfully defended their theses receive a deferral until August 31st. Regardless, all graduates receive a summons at the beginning of the summer.

Service life of conscripts

Many guys have heard about the increase in the length of military service in the army. This, without a doubt, led to serious concern. However, it turned out that such news, regularly appearing in the media, is a common fiction. Fortunately, as before, the service life will be exactly one year - 12 months.

Are there any innovations?

There are three main innovations that make military service easier:

1. Now each conscript (travel bag) receives a special set with personal hygiene products, thanks to which maximum help is guaranteed regarding things that need to be taken with you to the army. In addition, the bag contributes to an initial increase in the comfort of the guys who must serve the good of their homeland.
2. Recruitment to scientific companies will continue. However, to enter the research companies, you need to go through a special competition, because the number of places is limited.
3. Another innovation is a nap, which is mandatory for all military personnel. Daytime sleep allows all guys in the army to maintain good health and optimal performance and endurance.

Are the call times always the same?

There are exceptions to the timing, but they are determined at the level of legislation:

• citizens living in the northern regions of Russia. In this case, shortened draft terms are assumed. The legislation provides for a shift in the start date of conscription by a whole month;
• employees of the educational sector, regardless of profession and position. In this case, the period of conscription is valid from May 1 to July 15;
• villagers and agricultural workers are not part of the spring draft. For them, only the autumn call is assigned.

Such exceptions apply at the legislative level.

What's included in the Spring Call?

The concept of calling plays an important role. Every conscript should know what is included in the spring draft. It is imperative to know all the important steps:

1. At the initial stage, a medical examination is carried out at the military registration and enlistment office to confirm good health.
2. Then a mandatory meeting of the district conscription commission is expected. A documentary decision on conscription is made based on the results of a medical examination. The guy can be sent to the service, released from military duties or called for a second medical examination due to temporary health problems. In case of a positive decision, a military agenda will be provided, allowing to carry out army service for the good of the homeland.
3. In many situations, a summons to the army is issued immediately after the medical commission at the military registration and enlistment office. In this case, the guy should be recognized as fit for army service for health reasons. In this situation, the decision of the draft board is drawn up "retroactively", but this implies a violation of the current legislation of the Russian Federation. However, in recent years, violation of the law has been widespread.
4. The timing of conscription can be changed, which also implies a direct violation of the rights of conscripts. If the events are held outside the deadlines, a direct violation of the legislation of the Russian Federation is assumed. Moreover, the results of such events cannot have legal force, therefore, on their basis, the guy cannot be recognized as fit for military service.

The Spring Call can only be held within a specified time frame and on the basis of current legislation.

Activities that provide for the conscription of young men for military service are held under the auspices of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, but at their core they have a normative document approved by a meeting of the State Duma. This document is called the law on military service and has remained relevant for 20 years. The call itself is held strictly according to a certain algorithm, taking into account the adopted changes that are annually introduced to the specified law. 2018 was no exception, but every year future conscripts continue to receive questions related to the organization of recruiting events. The law on military service itself was signed back in 1998. It includes articles defining the order of conscription and service, the rights and obligations of conscripts, the organization of alternative service. A more detailed mechanism for replenishing the ranks of the aircraft should be considered separately.

The beginning of the draft campaign

The conscription period, that is, the time during which the military conscription commission works, covers all seasons, but is divided into two parts and lasts for several months. Federal Law No. 53 determines that the first period begins on April 1, therefore it is called the spring period. The second one starts in the fall, October 1.

Despite the fact that the terms during which conscription activities are carried out are well defined, and the dates of the beginning and end of the campaigns are known, the replenishment of the ranks of the armed forces in Russia begins only after the corresponding Presidential Decree.

The decree is signed a few days before the start of the call. In 2018, it was published at the end of March. His text contains an order to the departments of the Ministry of Defense and to the executive authorities in the regions. The tasks are set to ensure the conduct of conscription events, as well as to transfer servicemen to the reserve. And already on the basis of this decree, the Ministry of Defense forms working orders for the structural units of the military commissariat.

Dates, spring and autumn

The conscription campaign in 2018 will be held in two stages:

Spring appeal 2018 in terms of its timing is no different from its counterpart of the previous year. It will start on April 1 and will last 106 days. This means that the end date is in the summer month. Despite the fact that conscripts will be drafted into the army until July 15, the name of this process is primarily associated with the time of its beginning, not the end.

It should be noted that the duration of the autumn conscription is somewhat shorter, since it lasts only 92 days. A break in the work of the military commission makes it possible to prepare the effective conduct of conscription events, therefore, the recruitment of citizens for service outside the established time limits is not carried out. So, the autumn draft 2018 will start from October 1 and runs until December 31. A summons proposing to appear at the military registration and enlistment office in January or March is considered illegal, except for the purpose of verifying the data.

Provided deviations in terms of conscription

As in 2017, the spring and autumn conscription has adjusted deadlines for certain categories of citizens. Residents of the northern regions can be called up in the spring, not from April 1, but only after a month. That is, for them the beginning of army service, or rather, conscription, dates from May 1.

For the primary reason that the state is not interested in weakening its infrastructure for the sake of unlimited strengthening of the army, some work should not be interrupted. Thus, the villagers have a kind of postponement for the period of field work, and due to the fact that this work is quite voluminous, rural workers are completely exempted from the spring draft.

A similar situation occurs in the education system. After the start of the new academic year, it is inappropriate to make any personnel changes. The teachers will be given a reprieve from the army until spring. But the spring campaign continues for them on a general basis.

Service life in 2018

There are several good reasons to raise an issue on this topic. The conversation about a possible increase in the service life was started not only among the conscripts or their relatives. This option for strengthening the army was considered at one of the meetings of the General Staff of the RF Armed Forces. It was proposed not only to increase the service life (one of the options is 1 year plus 8 months), but also to increase the maximum draft age. In the statute on conscription and in the main law, it is limited to 27 years, but some parliamentarians have come out over the threshold of 30 years.

We hasten to assure the conscripts of 2018 that these innovations will not affect them, since the proposed changes in the form of a draft law have not even been formulated. Moreover, this is contrary to the main policy of modernizing the army.

Who will go to serve in the spring

Every young man can calculate the time of his call. If, after the day of his majority, he has time to go through all the procedures related to a medical examination, then in the current period he will receive a summons. Today, young men who have turned 18 are wondering when the spring draft begins in 2018? This question is being asked from the motives that they have every chance of joining the army in spring and summer.

Now it is obvious that depending on what date a citizen has a birthday, he will be on the list called by the autumn or spring appeal. As for the categories that will have to serve, there are no changes here. As before, these are citizens in the established age range, who do not have legal deferrals and are recognized as fit based on the results of a medical examination.

What to expect new

Despite a certain static on key issues, some changes have taken place. So, the soldier's military life has noticeably improved. He is now entitled to a personal travel bag, which includes a complete set of shaving and cosmetic accessories. The new law provides for a sleep in the daily routine for a soldier. You can now get into the research company on a competitive basis when the quota ends. This type of troops is especially attractive for university graduates.

As a result, I would like to emphasize: despite the fact that the beginning of the call is spring or autumn, in reality, events can end in summer (no later than July 15) or in winter (until December 31). Every potential serviceman should know the timing of the draft, because before being sent to the army, it is often necessary to finish the work begun in civilian life.

The Ecuadorian authorities have stripped Julian Assange of asylum at the London embassy. The founder of WikiLeaks was detained by the British police, and it has already been called the biggest betrayal in the history of Ecuador. Why are Assange avenged and what awaits him?

Julian Assange, a programmer and journalist from Australia, became widely known after the website WikiLeaks, which he founded, published classified documents of the US State Department in 2010, as well as materials related to military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.

But it was rather difficult to find out who the policemen, supporting by the arms, were taking out of the building. Assange dropped his beard and did not at all look like the energetic man, which he still appeared in the photographs.

According to Ecuadorian President Lenin Moreno, Assange was denied asylum due to his repeated violations of international conventions.

He is expected to remain at a police station in central London until he appears at Westminster Magistrates' Court.

Why is the President of Ecuador accused of treason

Former President of Ecuador Rafael Correa called the decision of the current government the biggest betrayal in the history of the country. "What he (Moreno. - Ed.) Did is a crime that humanity will never forget," said Correa.

London, on the other hand, thanked Moreno. The British Foreign Office believes that justice has been done. Representative of the Russian diplomatic department Maria Zakharova has a different opinion. “The hand of“ democracy ”squeezes the throat of freedom,” she said. The Kremlin expressed the hope that the rights of the arrested person would be respected.

Ecuador harbored Assange because the former president was center-left, criticized US policies, and welcomed WikiLeaks' publication of classified documents on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Even before the internet activist needed asylum, he managed to get to know Correa personally: he interviewed him for the Russia Today channel.

However, in 2017, the power in Ecuador changed, the country headed for rapprochement with the United States. The new president called Assange "a stone in his boot" and immediately made it clear that his stay at the embassy would not be prolonged.

According to Correa, the moment of truth came at the end of June last year, when US Vice President Michael Pence arrived in Ecuador. Then everything was decided. “You can rest assured that Lenin is just a hypocrite. He has already agreed with the Americans about the fate of Assange. And now he is trying to make us swallow the pill, saying that Ecuador is allegedly continuing the dialogue,” Correa said in an interview with Russia Today.

How Assange made new enemies

The day before his arrest, WikiLeaks editor-in-chief Christine Hrafnsson said that Assange was under surveillance. "WikiLeaks has uncovered a large-scale espionage operation against Julian Assange at the Ecuadorian embassy," he said. According to him, cameras and voice recorders were placed around Assange, and the information received was transmitted to the Donald Trump administration.

Hrafnsson clarified that Assange was going to be expelled from the embassy a week earlier. This did not happen only because WikiLeaks released this information. A high-ranking source told the portal about the plans of the Ecuadorian authorities, but the head of the Ecuadorian Foreign Ministry, Jose Valencia, denied the rumors.

The expulsion of Assange was preceded by a corruption scandal around Moreno. In February, WikiLeaks published the INA Papers, which traced the operations of the offshore company INA Investment, founded by the brother of the Ecuadorian leader. Quito said that this is Assange's conspiracy with Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and former head of Ecuador Rafael Correa to overthrow Moreno.

In early April, Moreno complained about Assange's behavior in the London mission of Ecuador. “We must protect the life of Mr. Assange, but he has already crossed all boundaries in the sense of violating the agreement that we came to with him,” the president said. “This does not mean that he cannot speak freely, but he cannot lie and engage in hacking. ". At the same time, back in February last year, it became known that Assange was deprived of the opportunity to interact with the outside world at the embassy, ​​in particular, his access to the Internet was turned off.

Why Sweden stopped persecuting Assange

At the end of last year, Western media, citing sources, reported that Assange would be charged in the United States. This was never officially confirmed, but it was because of Washington's position that Assange had to take refuge in the Ecuadorian embassy six years ago.

Sweden, in May 2017, closed the investigation of two cases of rape, in which the founder of the portal was accused. Assange demanded from the government of the country compensation for legal costs in the amount of 900 thousand euros.

Earlier, in 2015, the Swedish prosecutor's office also dropped three charges against him due to the statute of limitations.

Where did the rape investigation lead?

Assange arrived in Sweden in the summer of 2010 hoping to get protection from the American authorities. But he came under investigation in the rape case. In November 2010, a warrant for his arrest was issued in Stockholm, Assange was put on the international wanted list. He was detained in London, but was soon released on bail of 240 thousand pounds.

In February 2011, a British court ruled to extradite Assange to Sweden, followed by a series of successful appeals for the founder of WikiLeaks.

The British authorities placed him under house arrest before deciding to extradite him to Sweden. Breaking his promise to the authorities, Assange asked for asylum at the Ecuadorian embassy, ​​which was granted to him. Since then, the UK has had its own claims against the founder of WikiLeaks.

What now awaits Assange

According to police, the man was re-arrested at the request of the United States for extradition for publishing classified documents. At the same time, Deputy Foreign Minister Alan Duncan said that Assange would not be sent to the United States if he faced the death penalty there.

In the UK, Assange is likely to stand trial on the afternoon of April 11. This is stated on the WikiLeaks Twitter page. Probably, the British authorities will seek a maximum sentence of 12 months, said the man's mother, citing his lawyer.

At the same time, the Swedish prosecutor's office is considering the possibility of reopening the investigation into the rape charge. The victim's lawyer, Elizabeth Massy Fritz, will work to do this.

The procedure for conscription into the army in 2020 in the Russian Federation is regulated by the Federal Law of 28.03.1998 No. 53-FZ "On military duty and military service", as well as by the Government of the Russian Federation of 11.11.2006 No. 663 "On approval of the Regulations on conscription into military service citizens of the Russian Federation ".

Citizens who are exempt from military service, conscription, and citizens who are not subject to conscription are also not called up for military service.

The decision on conscription of citizens for military service can be made only after they reach the age of 18 full years. Persons over 27 years of age are not subject to conscription. If, upon reaching the age of 27, a citizen had the right to a deferral and not serve, then he is issued a military ID.

Dates of spring and autumn conscriptions

You can only be drafted into the army during the period of conscription. The call is carried out twice a year (spring and autumn calls) on the basis of the relevant decrees of the President of the Russian Federation, which indicate the dates (numbers) of the beginning of the call and when the call ends.

Spring conscription - starts April 01 and lasts until July 15.

For example, in 2018, the spring conscription was established by the decree of the President of the Russian Federation "On the conscription in April - July 2018 of citizens of the Russian Federation for military service and on the dismissal from military service of citizens doing military service."

In 2019, in accordance with by the decree of the President of the Russian Federationthe spring conscription was also held from April 01 to July 15.

The term of the spring conscription in 2020 is from April 01 to July 15, 2020.

Autumn conscription - runs from 01 October to 31 December.

The autumn draft is also established by the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation.

The deadline for the autumn draft into the army in 2020 is from October 01 to December 31, 2020.

There are exceptions from the general terms of conscription:

• citizens living in certain regions of the Far North or in certain localities equated to the regions of the Far North are called up for military service during the spring conscription from May 1 to July 15 or during the autumn conscription from November 1 to December 31.
• citizens living in rural areas and directly involved in sowing and harvesting operations can be drafted into military service from October 15 to December 31;
• citizens who are teachers of educational organizations are called up for military service from May 1 to July 15.

Service life in the army in 2020

The term of military service is established by Article 38 of the Federal Law "On Military Duty and Military Service".

Until 2008, the term of service in the army was two years. In 2006, amendments were made to the legislation on military service and the time of service in the army was reduced to 12 months.

For example, for military personnel who did not have the military rank of officer and were called up for military service before January 1, 2007, the service life was 24 months.

For military personnel called up for military service after January 1, 2008, regardless of whether the conscript has a higher education or not, the term of service in the army is 12 months.

For military personnel doing military service under a contract, the duration of military service is established in accordance with the military service contract.

Some people say they will soon increase their military service life and in 2020 or 2021 will need to serve for 2 years. We hasten to reassure the future conscripts. So far, this information has not been confirmed and is rumored. The draft law on increasing the term of service in the army has not been submitted to the State Duma of the Russian Federation for consideration.

New rules for receiving a summons. Draftees who have not received a summons will be required to appear at the military registration and enlistment office on their own. The bill on this was adopted in 2019.The previous method of notifying citizens - serving summons against receipt - has been preserved. However, a new method has also been introduced - it is proposed to send summons by mail by registered mail with acknowledgment of receipt to the address indicated in the military registration documents.

Failure to appear on a summons is subject to administrative and criminal liability.

Medical commission at the military registration and enlistment office

Before going to the army, conscripts are subject to compulsory medical examination. For events related to conscription, including for medical examination, citizens are summoned by the military commissariat.

All conscripts are subject to a call for a medical examination and a meeting of the draft board, except for those who have a deferment from conscription.

The conscription commission makes a decision regarding the conscript only after determining the category of his fitness for military service.

Doctors, based on the results of a medical examination, give an opinion on the suitability of a citizen for military service in the following categories:

• A - fit for military service;
• B - fit for military service with minor restrictions;
• B - limited fit for military service;
• G - temporarily unfit for military service;
• D - not fit for military service.

If it is impossible to give a medical opinion on the suitability of a conscript for military service on the spot, the conscript, by decision of the conscription commission or the head of the (municipal) department, is sent for an outpatient or inpatient medical examination to a medical institution, after which he is assigned to appear for a second medical examination and a meeting of the conscription commission with taking into account the expected completion date of the specified survey.

Read more about the procedure for passing a medical examination at the military registration and enlistment office in the article at the link.

Draft Commission Decisions

When conscripting for military service, the conscription commission is charged with organizing a medical examination of conscripts and making one of the following decisions in relation to them:

• about conscription for military service;
• on the direction to alternative civilian service;
• on granting a deferral from conscription;
• on exemption from conscription;
• on enrollment in the stock;
• on exemption from military service.

The decision of the draft commission in relation to each conscript on the same day shall be entered into the minutes of the meeting of the draft commission, signed by the chairman of the draft commission and its members, as well as in the certificate of a citizen subject to draft for military service, and the registration card of the conscript.

The conscript, in respect of whom the decision on conscription for military service has been made, is given a summons to appear at the appointed time in the department (municipal) for sending to the place of military service.
