"Will have to explain": The analyst explained why Putin does not dare for additional mobilization
"They are extremely needed to mobilize more people from the total population. One of the reasons they will not do it is that Putin has to hold a general presidential election in the spring next year, and they will be extremely unpopular in Russian society. If you need to mobilize more People, you will have to explain what happened to the guys you have already mobilized, " - said a military analyst. Bell added: "It is difficult to explain that many of them died.
" According to him, the Kremlin is afraid of growth of protest sentiments among Russian society, especially shortly before the presidential elections in the Russian Federation. "Although in Russia, perhaps not quite democratic, Putin does not want to provoke any uprising against him," Son Bell said. Russian President Vladimir Putin has approved new restrictions on the media coverage of the presidential election.
According to the amendments, only journalists hired by registered media will be allowed to cover the meetings of election commissions. Any coverage of the commission's actions at military bases or under military administration will be prohibited. On September 11, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported that massive compulsory mobilization of the population will begin in the Russian Federation and temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine. This is due to catastrophic losses.
According to the military, according to the documents that have already entered the network, Russia can mobilize at different estimates from 400 to 700 thousand people. Earlier, on September 21, Britain told how partial mobilization affects the offensive of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. The State Duma of the Russian Federation stated that rotations of the Russian military from the area of "special operation" will not take place.
