Avast, me hearties! Russia be raisin' the age at which scurvy dogs can be forced into service from 27 to 30! Arr, that means more landlubbers'll be servin' in their armed forces. The change was passed by the lower house of parliament, mateys! Seems Moscow wants to bolster their crew to protect their loot from the Ukraine invasion. Aye, a senior Russian MP even said this new law be written with a grand battle in mind. Methinks it be smellin' like a proper war ahead, me hearties!
In a move that could make even the saltiest of seadogs shiver in their boots, Russia is raising the maximum age for conscription from 27 to 30. Arrr, me hearties, it seems that more scallywags will now be liable to serve in the armed forces. This change was passed by the lower house of parliament on Tuesday, and it comes as no surprise that Moscow wants to boost its troop numbers, especially after invading Ukraine like a bunch of landlubbers last year.According to a senior Russian MP, the new law was written with a major conflict in mind. Arrr, matey, can ye believe it? It already smells like a big war! Andrei Kartapolov, head of the Russian military's General Staff Main Operations Department, be the one to make this claim. The scurvy dog be thinking that Russia needs more able-bodied buccaneers to defend the territory they snatched from Ukraine. They be wanting to keep all their ill-gotten gains, it seems.
Now, ye might be wonderin' why Russia be making this change. Well, it be because they be wantin' to fill their ranks with older and more experienced swashbucklers. Arrr, ye see, the older ye get, the more cunning ye become. They be thinkin' that by raisin' the conscription age, they be gettin' a bunch of seasoned sailors who can outsmart their enemies. But, me shipmates, it be a risky move. Some say the older ye get, the more bones ye be breakin' when ye be fightin' on the high seas.
So, me hearties, keep an eye on Russia as they be raisin' their conscription age. It be a sign that they be preparin' for a mighty battle. But let's not take it too seriously, me lads and lasses. After all, pirates like us be knowin' a thing or two about a good laugh, especially when it comes to those landlubber politicians and their grand plans. Arrr, a pirate's life be always full of surprises!
