Terminology is important.

Mobilization has nothing to do with draft.

Russia has universal draft. Draftees serve 1 year, all of which is training. At the end of the year they can re-enlist for a longer term (this is called contract soldier, what we call lifers) or they can say no, don’t want to re-enlist. They are then moved to the Reserves and sent home.

The word Mobilization is activation of Reservists. It is not a draft process. The headline does not make sense. However, mobilizing fathers of 3+ makes pretty good sense demographically. They likely already have fathered the number they were likely to.

Given NATOs recent moves, they need to get ready for Total War. Not just a limited SMO.

Or they could give up their dream of an expanded Russian empire and go home. Then there won’t be so many fatherless families of 3 in rural Russia.

This isn’t 10,000 miles away for them like the Afghanistan War, or the Iraq War, or the Vietnam War.

This is right there on their border, and a day’s drive from Moscow.

I bet you cried on December 26, 1991; probably pout every year on that day.

No.

What hurt Russia was not the collapse of the USSR, but the decisions made in Sept 1991, when Yeltsin had to decide on a plan to move from a planned economy to a market economy.

They had about three weeks in September, and no-one had planned anything (since the collapse of the USSR was a complete surprise). As a result, they ended up with the usual IMF Structural adjustment/shock therapy of privatization, “free trade”, deregulation etc.

They ended up with 2700 percent inflation in 1992. In the 1990’s, Russia had the largest drop in real income of any industrialized country (more than Weimar prior to Hitler).

And the resources of Russia were robbed and sold off in a rigged privatization to the benefit of Western Carpetbaggers, Yeltsin Family Scalawags and (((Oligarchs))).

The robbery that occurred under “Democracy” in 1991 amazingly left the people of Russia economically worse off than they had been under Communism.

And it took many years for them to get back and pass where they had been.

For ordinary people now, things are going in the right direction. When Tucker went shopping and the price of the same groceries was 25 percent in Moscow compared to NYC, that was a big eye opener. Also, gasoline, natural gas, electricity costs less than a quarter compared to US levels. And a lot less than prices in Europe.

Compare that to what goes on in Europe and North America. Where ALL the gov’ts are trying to immiserate, degrade and impoverish their own populations. As well as destroy them and replace them with Third World illegals.

If you go to the link it wasn’t a formal surrender but was about 200 soldiers of that brigade surrendering on their own after their commanders abandoned them and refused to evacuate them.

The globalist plan to kill off as many white men as posible for a useless reason keeps on chugging.

The Russian milblogger said it was 200 troops. Hard to tell what is what, where or when. In lieu of other info, calling fake news.
