Russia has no plans for an additional mobilisation of men to fight in Ukraine as more than 335,000 have signed up so far this year to fight in the armed forces or voluntary units, Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu said on Tuesday.
So russia has mandatory military training, each year a certain number of men are called, this has been happening for many years, it’s just standard boot camp. Shoigu assured everyone that this year’s conscripts won’t have to go to Ukraine, training will be done as usual (on russian territory only) and then they can go home.
This is hilarious.

Looks like he changed his mind.
