The Foreign Labor Migration Agency called on Uzbeks in Russia to be aware

Advertisements in the Uzbek language appeared on public transport in Russia, saying that if you serve in the Armed Forces under a contract, you will receive citizenship in a simplified manner. In this regard, the Foreign Labor Migration Agency asked Uzbeks not to go to conflict areas between Russia and Ukraine.

"We ask Uzbek citizens who are temporarily working in the territory of the Russian Federation not to follow calls to be drawn into conflict areas between Russia and Ukraine, not to go to conflict areas, and not to participate in military operations," the agency said.

It was also stated once again that the recruitment of citizens of Uzbekistan for military service in another country is the basis for legal responsibility.

Article 154, paragraph 1 of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan stipulates that "Recruitment to military service, security, police, military justice bodies or other similar bodies of foreign countries is punishable by restriction or deprivation of liberty from three to five years." the report of Foreign Labor Migration states.
