Russia’s State Duma moves to legalize electronic military summonses, closing loophole in conscription law
Russia’s State Duma will consider legislative amendments proposed to legalize electronic delivery of military summonses, writes RBC, citing the Defense Committee Chair Andrey Kartapolov in the Duma. If passed, the new law will make responding to summonses obligatory regardless of delivery method, Kartapolov said . Under the law now in effect, recipients can legally ignore summonses delivered online, but the new legislation, if passed, will change that.
