Hello, this
You mean I can become the citizen of a medieval backwater AND get killed 16 seconds after arriving at the front? Not gonna lie, very tempting....
Well it beats having to deal with the airlines.
You like Lada, you smell oil and get warm from the vent after 15 minutes. Close your eyes and dream...
Hey! Someone tell Congressional Republicans! They love Russia!
Man, I just watched "K - 19 widowmaker" and it just confirmed that Russian army, supply chain, organisation of things was crap on unimaginable scale. Still is.
If you are lucky
Shut up and take my signature
This in conjunction with the animation they made for Central Africa, it Seems like they're trying to attract people from 3rd world Africa countries to bolster forces without doing another mobilization wave.
Can you share the animation?
A dessert/tropical fighter in Russian snow.
"Russia offers citizenship to foreigners in exchange for enlisting in army. "
You don't have to be a citizen for too long.
You are eligible for drafting when you change your mind...yay!
Realistically speaking we need to consider the developing nations
It might be attractive to third world people. Russia does not like ethnic white Russians dying, but Africans will do just fine.
who knows why all the putin lovers in the west haven't rushed to join in this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Exactly, I hear from the Pootinista crowd that russia is a land of freedom, why aren't they lining up? If they are lucky they may even get laid for the first time... although they probably will find themselves on the receiving end.
hardest pass ever
Yet another sign of Russian desperation, failure, and disrespect of their own armed forces. I doubt they get any "volunteers" of any consequence.
wait you forget the 130 dollar per month pension i can look forward to enjoy when i turn 65 for a whole of two years before my vodka body is put into the ground.
What an amazing value proposition!
To die a Russian
Only if you survive the war.
Remember, no russian.
Please someone keep an eye out for Snowden. He might be shipped to Wagner Frontline any day now.
I think i would join army not to get russian citizenship
I mean....that's literally all of Ukraine at the moment.
That is literally what the Freedom for Russia Legion is about. Fight for them, get Ukrainian citizenship (and be on the right side of history for once).
Why would any sensible person want to move to Russia and then become compost for sunflowers
I don't think this offer is directed at sensible people.
Won't live long enough anyways
Die for Mother russia , become a honorary citizen.
In the obituary section presumably, if you want to make the next bloke's job easier.
Like being given shit sauce on a shit burger.
yep , just ask Randy.
I really don't think they will get anyone aside from north Korea..... and only most desperate ones.
The desperate ones in North Korea aren’t allowed to leave.
They should recruit in
Russiam pigs offering something worthless. Eat my ass Russia
Please don’t insult pigs. Unlike russkis, pigs are very intelligent animals.
Worst deal ever.
Ah yes, this is what you do when you’re winning a war
Hehe. Yes. To Bakhmut you go. :-D
russian citizenship might serve more as discouragement than encouragement :D
It’s the worst incentive ever lol
Are they trying to discourage or encourage?
But they hate all foreigners even more than each other! It's a traaaap!
Steven Seagal???
Rumor has it that upon hearing the news, he run to the enlistment office, run out of breath, walked the rest of the way, but got stuck in the door. Seeing how fat he is, he was immediately offered a general rank. He will sign the papers after he catches breath and consumes his daily intake of a tub of lard.
No thanks
You have to be pretty desperate to have a 1 chance in 1000 to survive. Meaning, the ones who pick up the offer comes from places where you probably barely know how to read and write. Have fun trying to make an army with that.
Oh you were serious? Let me laugh even harder!
Russian leaders getting dumber by the minute I swear.
they where never very smart to begin with
Russian citizenship is not very prestigious.
Lol….what an honour to become a citizen of that piece of shit country ….oh wait it gets better…..first i get to head to the front line with no training and see what the inside of my guts looks like right before i die. Sign me up.
Tucker Carlson will jump at it…
Has he gotten his Hungarian citizenship yet?
“You are proud to be new Russian citizen, yes? Then take this shovel and fight to the death Comrad! “
Shovel? Hold your horses, they ain't made of rubbles. Shovel goes only to the marksmen. You get a stick if you can find one.
your life must be fucked to need/want to be a citizen in russia
russia: Ukraine is using NATO mercenaries. Noooo you don’t understand it’s not the same when we do it they are volunteers who want to live in russia
The desperation of number 2 military is crazy.
hahahaha
Whats the punishment for not joining the army they force you to be a Russian citizen?
What if you just join the Wagner Group?
Doctors hate this one trick against depression!
Some foreigners were dumb enough to join Isis. I'll bet they'll be some dumbshits that want to become sunflowers too.
Thanks, but no thanks!!! I have no interest in becoming an evil terrorist and being a cannon fodder for a meat grinder.
Does it come with a burial plot?
I'd prefer that Get 2 Pay 3 punches in the face offer for $4500
Who would want this?
No thanks.
who on earth would take this.
The citizenship is the prize. Yeah, no.
Pass, who's next. North Korea?
Wow there must be dozens of people willing to sign up. Dozens! 😂
Remember that the whole surviving bunch of Wagner prisoners did fit in one medium room after first wave of mobilization.
Citizenship graveyard spot for your service at the end.
"Oh finally, I have a chance!" - Someone, somewhere
who in their right mind would wanna be citizens of a backward country.
-"service guarantees citizenship!"
If you told me I had to choose, become a Russian citizen or put on shoes filled with cow shit and broken glass, I’d be walking away in severe pain and smelly as fuck thinking I got the better deal with a smirk of confidence as I go!
If you live in a really impoverished place then that might be a good deal
Great opportunity for those that want to live as a crippled or be buried (maybe) as vet in a country that rewards 3 people and shits on everyone else….get real, lol.
Enlist all lefty tankies and communism worshippers.

Who da fuk would want citizenship in Russia???
Who would want to live in a cold failed state with a crumbling economy
As an added bonus, you also become a citizen of hell.
The deal of the century.
Dead bodies don’t need citizenship
Wonder if Edward Snowden signs up.
LOL! What an entrancing offer! /s
Who on earth after almost an entire year of an absolute s*itshow might ever want to join russian army in this war?
Only a moron would go enlist to go to Ukraine to get a citizenship in a place like terrorruzzia which is equally moronic.
Ignore how much you hate Russia and lets logic this one out.
Eh, much as we joke, 12 months ago for much of the world, getting a Russian passport was an upgrade on their existing one.
Hmmmm as tempting as it might sound to be impressed into multiple human wave attacks…. I don’t think a passport has me convinced
Can I volunteer” the American politicians and pundits who support Russia?
You have to be living in a really shitty situation to think Russian citizenship is a step up.
okey, but Ukraine has a similar program, doesn't it?
Congrats, blyat. Now start running west.
Who wants to become russian?
Offering citizen for enlistment ? Man did this just turn into starship troopers or what
Now that is a shitty deal 😂
What? No. Way. You mean, not only would I get to be a citizen of a shithole country, but, I get to get sent to the front lines with convicts as well??? Sign me up!
I’d rather eat my own fucking entrails, which is probably all I’d have to eat by the time this madness depletes Russia of its last few turnips.
Oml desperation
Who the fuck wants to be a Ruzzian citizen? Haitians? That's about the only place I'd want to live less.
Wow! What a deal, where do we sign up 🤣🤣🤣
Who would willingly want to become a Russian citizen?
Temporary citizenship then?
Who the fuck would want that?
Is this some kind of suicide squad?
Why kill your own when you can kill foreigners
I wonder if Snowden is enlisting.
They have been very successful buying and poisoning conservative minds worldwide via facebook and twitter. I'm sure there are many applicants. /s
Somebody enlighten me I'm struggling to see the attraction 😐
“If you survive our shitty war we’ll let you live in our shitty country.”
It won't take long anyway...
Posthumous citizenship?
Who would want Russian citizenship? Their passport will be useless for travel, and one will probably have become cannon-fodder before said useless passport even arrives in the post.
Will they get Lada delivery though?
that’s it, I’m packing my bags to become a russian recruit… ahahaha. holeh fawk desperate much?
That’s like Hitler offering party membership to foreigners if they fought for Nazi Germany.
Why would anyone in their right minds want to become a Russian citizen? I can’t believe this
I hope they know by now that Russia just lie.
scott ritter
Come to Ruzzia, live under a dictatorship, we’ll enlist you into the meat grinder and if you survive, we’ll make sure the rest of your life is horrible….
Why in the fuck would anyone want to be a Russian citizen
idk, there appears to be a load of fucking retards in the world who seem to think Russia is on the right side of history, but they'd never renounce their citizenship for a russian one, wonder why?
Who the hell wants to be a citizen of Russia? How is this an inducement?
Ride and die.
Fuck that I would rather live any where else on the planet, who want to live in 1984
It’s the opposite of what wagner is doing. Wagner: “we’ll free you from prison if you fight for us.” russia: “we’ll offer you prison if you fight for us.”
No thanks deport me pls.
