“I see a deep restlessness and fear among the people. That is why I proposed to turn to the Kremlin with such a request. If it is said that the mobilization has ended, then it must be put to an end. People will trust a political leader only if his words match his deeds.”he pointed out in a telephone conversation.

The request sent to the Kremlin by Yábloko demands that Putin put on paper what he announced on October 28, since since then activists have denounced that enlistment continues in some regions.

“On March 8, when congratulating the women, the president said that only professional soldiers would fight in Ukraine,” he pointed.

Despite his promise, Putin ordered the mobilization of 300,000 reservists on September 21, prompting a mass exodus of men of military age, most of whom dare not return.

“Many women turn to me. She feels mistrust. You can talk (about the end of the mobilization), but the reality is that we do not have a legal act. It is important that everything ends with a decree”, Indian.

Slabunova commented that this uncertainty is affecting the health of Russians, who complain of heart problems and, increasingly, depression.

“In addition, rumors of a second wave of mobilization have intensified. A relatively young mother told me that she takes painkillers, since she had never suffered so much ”, he highlighted, alluding to the news that said decree could be issued after the New Year.

The deputy for the northwestern region of Karelia acknowledges that she has not yet received a response from the Kremlin.

“Yábloko calls for a ceasefire that leads to peace negotiations. The civilian population must be protected. Any military action is a failure for politicians, especially in the 21st century, but only with political instruments can differences be resolved”he pointed.

He admits that, just like in Moscow, Russian society in other regions is also “polarizedbetween those who support and oppose the “special military operation” in Ukraine.

“It is difficult to know the percentages for and against. What I don’t see are signs that the confrontation is going to end anytime soon. But hope is the last thing you lose. I hope that process starts in February or March.”asserts.

Many women have complained in different regions of the country about the lack of military training and the poor conditions in which their husbands and sons sent to the Ukrainian front have to serve.

For this reason, the president will meet in the coming days with a group of mothers and wives of those mobilized, according to the Kremlin.

However, the recently created Committee of Mothers and Wives denounces that these women are related to the Kremlin.

“Vladimir Vladimirovich (Putin’s patronymic), are you a man or what? (…) We are here in Moscow, we are ready to meet with you. We wait your answer. Or is he hiding again? said Olga Tsukanova, head of said committee, on social media.
