The Ministry of Defense stops handing the summons, Tinkov without a Russian passport and record inflation in Europe

The Ministry of Defense stops mobilization and begins the autumn call

Last week, Sergei Shoigu reported to Vladimir Putin about the mobilization task - 300 thousand people are called up. Today, the Ministry of Defense officially stated that the presentation of the summons within the framework of mobilization is ceasing. At the same time, there is no documentary confirmation of this yet. Lawyers are afraid that before signing the decree on the completion of mobilization, she may resume at any time. But, most likely, this will not happen earlier than the end of the autumn call, which starts tomorrow.

• The Ministry of Defense today officially announced that the preparation and presentation of the summons within the framework of partial mobilization is stopped, all mobilization measures have been completed, and the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will be replenished in the future only at the expense of volunteers and candidates for military service under the contract. The military commissariats are ordered to return to the performance of duties in normal mode.
• At the same time, the completion of mobilization is not confirmed in no way. There is no presidential decree on the completion of mobilization measures. When asked by journalists whether such a decree will be, Dmitry Peskov replied today: "We will inform you additionally." He urged in this matter to focus on the statements of the Ministry of Defense. Putin later said that he did not think about whether the official decree was needed to complete the mobilization, and promised to discuss this with lawyers. At the same time, he emphasized that the mobilization is accurately completed, "the point is set."
• Last week, Minister of Defense Sergei Shoigu reported Putin to complete a mobilization task. According to him, 300 thousand people were mobilized, including more than 27 thousand entrepreneurs and 1300 representatives of executive authorities at different levels. Of these, 82 thousand have already been sent to the “special operation” area. The appeal of citizens is terminated, no additional tasks are planned, Shoigu assured.
• At the same time, lawyers and human rights activists warn that before Putin signing the decree on the completion of mobilization, the call may resume at any time. “We, as lawyers, strongly recommend not to relax, not to leave the room, not to make a mistake,” Pavel Chikov warned . Today, after Putin’s words, he once again emphasized that the decree was needed. The community of lawyers and human rights activists “First Department” also called not to relax.
• The Western media associate the completion of mobilization in Russia with the inability to ensure everything necessary for even more draftees, especially taking into account the fact that in Russia, an autumn draft for military service begins in Russia. “We doubt whether Russia has resources to mobilize a large number of military personnel, their proper equipment and training,” the Western official quoted Financial Times. Russia can hardly rearm even the current military, not to mention mobilized, a military expert said CNN at the beginning of mobilization.
• “Problems with the supply of mobilized“ at the initial stage ”officially recognized Shoigu in a conversation with Putin. According to him, now all these problems have been resolved. “All those who arrived in the troops are provided with the prescribed types of allowances, a uniform, equipment, food according to the norms of military military personnel,” he said. Putin called the difficulties with the supply of inevitable, since in Russia a long time ago "no such events have been carried out." He called for upgrading the entire system of work of the military enlistment offices. We talked about problems with the supply of mobilized here and here .
• Due to mobilization for a month, an autumn draft in the army was postponed . It will begin on November 1 (instead of October 1) and will last until the New Year. It is planned to call for 120 thousand people - this is 7.5 thousand less than last year's autumn call and 14 thousand less than in the spring. The authorities assure that the carriers will not be involved in the “special operation”, and they will also not be sent to the DPR, LPR, Kherson and Zaporizhzhya regions.

What am I from this

The announcement of the authorities about the completion of mobilization is probably designed to create for the Russians the “visibility of a normal life”, which was the Kremlin’s key strategy from the very beginning of the “special operation,” writes The New York Times. But, how long this visibility will last, it is not known - human rights activists are afraid that a new round of mobilization can begin at any time. And the Russians who left for mobilization are still in no hurry to go back.

Russia announced the stop of the movement of courts as part of a grain transaction

The Ministry of Defense announced the termination of the movement of ships along the humanitarian corridor in the Black Sea created as part of a grain transaction - "before clarifying the situation." It is emphasized that Russia does not get out of the agreements, but suspenses their action "before the Ukrainian side acceptance of additional obligations not to use this route for military purposes." Later, Putin repeated the same. The Kremlin said that Russia was continuing contacts with Turkey and the UN of grain transaction. But “in conditions when Russia speaks of the impossibility of guaranteeing the safety of shipping in these areas, such a transaction is unlikely to be implemented, and it acquires a different nature: much more risky, dangerous and unmarried,” said Dmitry Peskov. In turn, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan made it clear that the grain transaction can be continued without Russia: “While Russia is indecisively acted, we will continue to act persistently in universal interests.” Russia has a de facto one option-a return to the status quo to the transaction and the blockade of Ukrainian ports by the forces of the Black Sea Fleet, on the base of which drones were struck in Sevastopol on Saturday on Saturday.
