“”””” Russia just OKed Russians 65-70 or older to be called back to service.”””””
That was done over 2 years ago.
Trump beat me to it.
Why do the zeepery people use so many exclamation points, I wonder? đ
Wrong again, bone brain.
Lol! Itâs only Nicaragua! Can you believe Ortega is still around?
I think this is a new call up of older people who were in service before. I can’t remember where I read this today. Sorry.
It was US foreign policy most of the time until the First World War.
It was widely covered in July of 2023.
Putin Raises Elderly Army as Ex-Serviceman Up to 70 Deemed Eligible-âPublished Jul 22, 2023
âThe age for men with the highest ranks in the reserves can be called up âremainsâ at 70. For other senior ranks it has risen to up to 65, while for junior officers, it is now up until the age of 60. Meanwhile, general reservists can be brought back into service until the age of 55, 10 years older than previously.
At the other end of the scale, head of the State Duma Committee on Defense, Andrei Kartapolov, said that the lower limit of the military age of 18 for Russian men will remain the same, reversing a proposal by Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu to increase it to 21.â

Someone must have posted it as current then.
OMG. Another victim of the US education system (you are).
I was an archivist on the early Free Republic, and it takes very little effort for me to search. I have tricks and tools.
Who the hell even does such mining? Certainly persons with nothing useful to do.
The only time Europe has not been a mess, or headed there fast, was when the US basically ran it.
Despite a recent thin veneer of liberal civilization and organization, I submit that because of its divisions, and technology, it is, and has been over time, the most dangerous region on Earth.
Lots is going to happen in the next week in the Russo-Ukraine War.
Any list that Nicaragua is on is definitely not a good list to be on. Unless you are maybe talking about scenic spots - Nicaragua has a few nice ones, like Ometepe Island. ;-)
“and it takes very little effort for me to search. “
Still, wasted time!

More wasting your time. I guess my living rent free in your head bugs you.
lmao
I lived in southern Italy for three years and traveled with my family to quite a few European countries at that time. Through the eyes of a âtweenâ Navy brat a handful of decades ago, it appeared quite civilized and even delightful.
I was last in Italy in 2004 and it was still OK. My last time in Europe was in England in 2012. You could definitely see it headed in the wrong direction then.
