Question? Should I join the Russian army?

[der Kolumbianer]

My dream has always been to be a military man, but I'm not interested in being one in the USA (I'm from Colombia), I am attracted to the possibility of being a Russian soldier, but don't you think it's a good idea?

I think the purpose of being a soldier is to enable you to protect your own country, people and interests, not sure why you would want to join the Army of another country?

Hey its your life you do what you like buddy, but you did ask

 

[Fluff]

Can you explain further? What is attracting you to the Russian Army? The uniform? The girls? And Columbia has an army, so why not join that one?

Bad idea, tovarish.

You can do much more later for Mother Russia, if you will join US army now.

Might be a bit of a language barrier though.

just need to know beer and shoot, at least for the army, right?

What about the Spanish Foreign Legion? No language barrier there.

and a hot uniform!

Otherwise if you don't wanna join the Colombian Army, The French Foreign Legion might be an alternative. The training is tough as can be but after several years you may be granted the french citizenship.

Bit of an odd thread, we replied what seem right, first time I ever hear of a Colombian looking to enlist for the siberian tundra. Good luck whatever you choose.

There is no such military term враг, we use противник instead.

Sure language barrier is not a problem in the Russian army. Lots of African\Arab guys studies here in military schools\academies. They only need to know some words from military regulations and few ordinary swearnings.

On a more serious note - you can not join Russian army if you are not Russian citizen. And you can not get citizenship fast enough, except for ethnic Russians or citizens of Belorussia, Ukraine and some other states.

F*** that, I wanna drive a T14 Armata, shoot an Ak12 and Fly a SU-57. Why are you f***ing with me?

But seriously I want an AK 12

Drug cartels are better armed than the Columbian Army

If birth rate keeps dropping you will have to recruit from somewhere - or are you going for a full robot army

Basically his uniform and the experience of being one in addition to the opportunity to start a life in Russia does not seem like a bad idea to me, why not be in my country? I am not very attracted to the idea

Well I know a little basic Russian, I'm 16 I still have time to learn the language I think

My honor I doubt that I will join the Colombian army, my father was a guerrilla of the M19, despite not sharing his opinion, I do not want to join the enemies of my father, besides that we are one of the most corrupt countries

Another kid asking dumb questions, what part of "You can only join if you are a Russian citizen" do you FAIL to comprehend??

 

[Jake84]

I think best option for you it is a study in the Russian university (i mean civil, non military). It is costs much less then in US or Europe, give you a good education. Also it is a long-term visa, beautiful girls, cheap alcohol and great time to spend.

Army on other hand is most of the time is damn boring. And no women. And life in dark frozen corners of Siberia is no joke. And as i say, there is no chances to join Russian army for non citizen.

Yeah I am sure you’re right but I’ll ask a question for this boys defense. What are the chance for a civilian stranger to get the Russian citizenship after a while whether studying/working there or both?

It seems like his goal is ultimately to enlist the Russian army and I’m not saying it’s going to be easy. Only wondering and trying to find a loophole...
