New Mobilization Will Finish off russia’s Economy

A new possible wave of mobilization in the rf could become not only a serious social upheaval, but also a catalyst for a large-scale economic crisis, the consequences of which will be felt for years to come.

Experts emphasize that the mass withdrawal of russians from the economy amid a labour shortage will only worsen the situation in russia. After all, modern warfare depends not so much on the number of troops as on the level of technical equipment, communication systems and electronic warfare capabilities. Therefore, the military effectiveness of a large-scale mobilization is questionable.

Political analysts also warn that a new wave of mobilization could trigger russian’s mass leaving for abroad. While after the mobilization in 2022, some of the emigrants returned to the rf, this time highly qualified specialists may leave the country for good, dealing an even heavier blow to the economy.

It is worth emphasizing russia’s financial difficulties. The rf’s budget deficit has already exceeded the planned figures many-fold, and providing for hundreds of thousands of mobilized people will require prohibitive costs.
