Al Jazeera: World reacts to Putin’s partial mobilisation plans in Ukraine war
Ukraine says Moscow’s move is ‘predictable’ as it is failing to achieve its objectives in the seven-month-old war.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has announced a partial military mobilisation in Russia for the seven-month-old war in Ukraine, warning it is “not a bluff”.
In a televised address to the nation on Wednesday, Putin said he was defending Russian territories and that the West wanted to destroy the country.
He said Russia would use all the means at its disposal to protect its territory.
Russian defence minister Sergei Shoigu told state media that Putin’s decree would see 300,000 additional personnel called up to serve in Russia’s military campaign in Ukraine.
Here is how the world reacted to Putin’s announcement:
