A new law in Russia allows those who sign up to fight in Ukraine to forgive debts they cannot repay. The legislation will allow anyone who signs a one-year contract to go to fight after December 1 to be released from debts, for which a recovery order was issued before that date. It will also apply to their spouses. The total amount of debts covered will be 10 million rubles, or around 92,000 euros at the current rate.
This measure, approved Tuesday by the Russian Parliament, is considered by experts as a strong incentive, while Russia is looking for volunteers for a conflict which has now lasted more than a thousand days.
