Two deputies from the Republic of Karelia’s regional parliament have released a letter calling for Vladimir Putin to sign an order officially ending Russia’s mobilization campaign. Their request notes that the absence of such an order is “affecting society’s psychological state and is a source of concern and heightened anxiety in Russian families and workplaces in addition to causing health problems for many children.”
Russian Presidential Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov said Tuesday that Putin had not yet seen the statement.
On October 28, Russian Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu told Vladimir Putin that Russia’s mobilization drive was complete. The Kremlin reported soon after that a decree ending mobilization is not necessary, but in reality, Russia's military commissariats can legally draft people until the president officially declares mobilization over.
