Due to difficulties in the currency market, your bonus will be paid in instalments, in an equivalent quantity of potatoes and mandarins.

Three years pay for very probable death.

If your family loves and needs you that much...

Russian lifes are no longer this cheap. Average pay is 63,000 rubel per month and median pay 42,000 rubel. So 4-6 years depending on how you look at it.

The comment section is mocking an effective recruitment tactic 🤡

Y'all need to get a clue, Ukraine is on back foot in Donetsk. If Russia is able to sustain this rate, consequence are grave.

They can keep spending this money for another few years and they can get some results.

Moscow started offering 1.9million rubel in July, now Belgorod goes to 3million rubel a few months later. That is a more then 50% increase within 3 months. It is also not just a token amount, but multiple years worth of average Russian salary.

So no it is not sustainable as Russia has to raise rates and it shows very clearly how much Russian men actually support the war. It also is not as cheap, as offering high salaries in the military, means all other employers have to compete with higher salaries as well. That obviously causes a lot more problems.

OK... But they are still able to man the assault, so to clearly is working for them.

While limp dick west can't figure if Ukraine should be able to strike Russians targets 🤡

Russia is pretty close to turn a three day war into a three year one.
