“Russian companies are legally required to provide two employees for military service to the Russian armed forces.”
No Russian federal law requires companies to provide two employees for military service. The "two employees" figure originates solely from a March 2026 regional directive by the Ryazan governor, which applies only to firms of certain sizes within that single region and asks them to nominate "candidates" — not automatically deliver personnel. Federal mobilization laws impose record-keeping and assistance duties on employers but specify no employee quota whatsoever.
“As of 2026, men in Germany are required to obtain military permission before being allowed to leave the country.”
Germany's highest-authority legal and government sources — including the Bundestag and Bundesregierung — explicitly state that travel remains unrestricted under the 2026 Military Service Modernization Act. Some lower-authority media outlets report a narrower provision requiring approval only for absences exceeding three months for men aged 17–45, but this is fundamentally different from the blanket "permission to leave the country" the claim describes. The claim's framing creates a false impression of a general exit ban that does not exist under German law.
