The Kremlin has no plans for a mobilization, but Nebenzia made a cryptic statement
Russia’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Vasily Nebenzya, stated that the Kremlin currently has no plans to announce a mobilization after the fall elections. At the same time, he called for waiting until the end of the electoral process, hinting that the situation could change.
“Don’t worry about mobilization in Russia. It has been officially stated many times that we do not currently need a mass mobilization, and as far as I know, it is neither planned nor expected,” he said.
At the same time, Nebenzia added: “But let’s see what happens after the elections—and who is right and who is wrong.”
This was reported by Russian propaganda media.
Over the course of August 20, Russian troops carried out 1,069 strikes on 51 settlements in the Zaporizhzhia region. Four people were wounded as a result of the enemy attacks.
