When the Soviet Union disintegrated, how was the nationality of soldiers distributed?

Speaking of the Soviet Union, many people think that it is a very powerful country, but in the end it is doomed to disintegration. The Soviet Union is a federal country, so the large and small socialist republics formed by their voluntary alliance naturally dispersed after the disintegration.

Although the Soviet Union was once the first socialist country in history, after its disintegration, it encountered many problems, such as how to allocate the nationality of these soldiers after the disintegration of the Soviet Union. On this issue, the Soviet Union also discussed it in many aspects, but the final result was not so satisfactory.

The reason why the Soviet Union was able to compete with Germany with sea tactics in those years was mainly because it had broader human resources, which enabled these people to devote themselves to fighting and exchange the fruits of victory for themselves. In the Soviet era, they actually practiced compulsory military service, which still exists in China today.

This is an important way to enhance national defense security and safeguard national territorial integrity. Every male soldier in the Soviet Union must be between eighteen and twenty-seven, and serve in military service for two or three years. This enabled the Soviet Union to maintain a strong manpower output in the long-term battle.

However, even if so many people joined the army, the Soviet Union could not escape the fate of disintegration. When the Soviet Union disintegrated, the first question they faced was, where should these soldiers go?

Because of the military service system before the disintegration of the Soviet Union, one of the strictest is to arrange local soldiers to farther places, so that they can better carry out ethnic integration and cultural exchanges between ethnic groups. Therefore, due to such war considerations, they often send Ukrainian soldiers to the Middle East or send people from northern Russia to South Asia. This is because such a move makes these soldiers become soldiers who are far away from their homeland to defend the country.

After the war, these people began to think about their position, so the countries that joined the Soviet Union began to decide to divide these soldiers to a certain extent. The first thing that may come to mind is to keep these soldiers in the area where they serve. However, once the plan was handed down to the soldiers, it became the reason for their resistance.

They don't want to be separated from their families for a long time. Maybe they can die for their country in wartime, but in peacetime, spending more time with their families is their greatest wish. So this plan caused great confusion, and even a lot of Soviet equipment was destroyed under the resistance of these soldiers.

Since this method didn't work, they thought of the second plan, that is, people who don't want to stay in other countries can choose to retire. If you don't retire and don't want to stay in other countries, you can be accepted as a Russian. This practice in Russia is amazing.

Because of this, after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Russia has a certain human base. In fact, after the plan was introduced, it was recognized by most people. After all, being able to give yourself a nationality is the minimum recognition for soldiers, and there is also a certain degree of freedom in the choice of retirement. Of course, in addition to the problem of personnel, there is another problem, that is, where should the equipment go?

Speaking of this problem, all the Soviet Union can think of is to turn these equipment into its own heritage and move with the movement of personnel. They gave these weapons to those who spilled blood on the battlefield, but in the end, these weapons did not become the capital for them to express their heroic deeds, but flowed into the black market, forming a black trade. Later, in order to alleviate the contradiction of weapons distribution, they chose the region as their own division standard, which made Russia take over the weapons before the former Soviet Union on a large area and gave themselves a rapid military development channel after the war.

In fact, any country may unite for special reasons during the war. But the end result will come to an end. No one can be in a state of war for a long time and still remain relatively fanatical. When the war retreats, the distribution of these soldiers is the first consideration for all countries. Any federal country should give soldiers a legal birthright so that they can fight for their country in the war.
