Vladimir Putin calls up 160,000 Russians for military service
-
Really? Because 160K doesn't seem like much at this point. I'd probably be wanting the world to not find out I need yet another chunk of guys and all I can do is 160K because all the others have completely failed.
This has nothing to do with the war in Ukraine. Russia has been drafting people for military service twice a year for decades. This is how countries with conscription systems work. Finland does the same thing.

You can say Putin here. No double speak required.
I don't want to. You can say it three times instead.

Will he appear like beetlejuice? Because I could go the The Hague and summon him.

Any time now...

He's missing about 320.000 soldiers for his summer offensive. Curious.
Russia is missing 500 000 soldiers mobilized for this winter offensive.

Important detail you might miss. Conscription is not mobilisation. This conscription is biggest in some time but not that much. Euronews and other media know this is clickbait.
Putin did this to sow fear in Europe - he knows media will do everything for the clicks. This is how we are played.
In 2011 the draft was for 218000: http://www.kremlin.ru/acts/bank/32869/

Sounds like Vlady is really taking the peace talks seriously. I'm sure he just need 160k peace keepers to help rebuild. He's a super reasonable guy.
They draft this amount of conscripts twice a year for the last several decades - nothing unusual here and absolutely not related to the war.
-
160k Russian troops attacking Ukraine = guaranteed death
160k Russian troops attacking the Kremlin = guaranteed win
They should consider their options
They've been drafting this amount of conscripts twice a year for the last several decades: nothing unusual here, not related to the war - would've happened anyway

Sure. Wagner failed on that, but new recruits would do much better!

And he chose to stop. He was pretty much at red square already.

He didn't choose, Putin made a deal with him and killed him 2 months later

He chose to accept the deal, tho

It wasn't the kind of deal he had a choice in
Prigozhin wasn't going to Moscow to overthrow Putin, just Shoigu and Gerasimov.
As soon as Putin made the call, the whole thing was over.
