Early last year, the Russian State Duma passed a law allowing banks to provide deferrals on loan repayments to “liberators” involved in Ukraine, with the aim of providing additional financial incentives.

As reported by “NBN” With reference to the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), the Russian opposition publication Mediazona published information that recently, the Central Bank of the Russian Federation has granted significantly more deferments on debt repayment (“credit holidays”) to Russian military personnel, and this indicates an increase in the number of conscriptions into Putin’s army.
In particular, in the period from July to September 2024, the Russian bank regulator allowed almost 54,200 contract soldiers/mobilized Putin’s troops to go on “credit holidays”. At the same time, in July-September last year, potential occupiers were given less than 30,000 identical financial deferments.
Such a sharp increase in the indicators of “credit holidays” for Russian military personnel is recorded against the backdrop of a number of signs that Moscow is concerned about the impossibility of maintaining long-term economic stability in the Russian Federation, and is actively reducing certain benefits for the invaders who fought in Ukraine.
Earlier, we wrote about the fact that the former governor of the Kursk region admitted that Russian occupiers are engaged in looting in the region.
