Rusia pregătește condițiile pentru o nouă mobilizare. ISW: Kremlinul schimbă legile și se teme de proteste

Russia is taking steps to expand its military recruitment base and enhance internal security measures, raising speculation about a potential new mobilization. Recent legislative changes may prepare for a new mobilization phase and manage possible internal protests. The slow offensive in eastern Ukraine continues to result in significant casualties, prompting the Kremlin to seek additional human resources. A new law allows individuals with active criminal records to enlist in the military during an official mobilization. Analysts suggest these changes could create a legal framework for official mobilization and additional control measures. However, there is currently no official confirmation of a new mobilization in Russia.
