Politico: Putin claims ‘partial mobilization’ to end in 2 weeks, with 222,000 reservists called up so far
‘Nothing further is being planned’ after draft of 300,000 is complete, Russian president claims.
Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday claimed his country’s so-called partial mobilization of reservists to fight in the Ukraine war, announced last month, will end in around two weeks.
“This work is already coming to an end,” Putin said at a press conference in Astana, where he traveled to participate in a conference.
“There are now 222,000 people mobilized in the troop formations, out of 300,000. I think that within about two weeks all mobilization activities will be completed.” Putin also said that “nothing further is being planned … within the foreseeable future,” as his defense ministry had not requested further troops.
