Vladimir Putin Needs You
Putin has begun an electronic draft scheme, running from October to December. He is notifying people electronically to verify personal information, when in reality he is drafting them into the military. Putin wants 135,000 more cannon fodder.
"People are summoned supposedly to verify their personal data, but in reality, they're immediately drafted," said Timofey Vaskin, a lawyer with the School for Conscripts. "This practice is especially common in Moscow."
In response to a mass exodus of Russians fleeing mobilisation in 2022, Vladimir Putin initiated a digital draft scheme. These people drafted are banned from fleeing Russia.
Looks to me like the war isn't going well for Putin, what a monster, just who Krasnov wants to be just like.
