Russian President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly said that there is no need for mobilization in the country, Dmitry Peskov, the head of state's press secretary, told RIA Novosti. This is how he commented on the Financial Times article, in which a source close to the Russian Defense Ministry said that combat Moscow will need a new wave of mobilization to maintain successes in the region (for example, advances in the Kharkiv region and Donbass). According to him, "by the end of this year or the beginning of next year, a new wave of partial mobilization will be inevitable." The president has repeatedly said that, according to the military, there is no need for mobilization," Peskov said. On December 14, 2023, Putin announced a broad campaign to recruit volunteers to the army, and also ruled out the need for a second mobilization. According to him, 1,500,000 people sign contracts throughout the country every day.
