Russia is going to have another mobilization wave soon, much rougher than the first one.

There is not going to be enough money in budget to pay contract soldiers. Internet & messenger bans are being prepared. Dissent, first and foremost ultra-patriot telegram ziggers - will be silenced with new "promoting extremism" laws aka
