Russia should have gotten tired of the constant threats of nuclear weapons by now. Experts are sure that there are no more arguments left in the Kremlin. Although Vladimir Putin used to have several of them.
One of them is “shared” mobilization in Russia. Russian political scientist Abbas Gallyamov said this on Channel 24.
According to him, Russia is still “rattling” nuclear weapons to sow fear. And also for the world to put pressure on Zelensky and negotiations take place. Although the Ukrainian side has clearly indicated under what conditions they can happen.
For this, Putin needed mobilization. I don’t think that he seriously expects that this “meat” will seriously change anything in the military sense, if the Ukrainians could cope with a professional army. – says Gallyamov.
Therefore, he believes that, among other things, the Kremlin dictator needed mobilization in order to put pressure not only on the West, but also on Ukrainians.
Putin's two steps
“Before that Putin had only 2 steps left: mobilization and nuclear weapons. He has already taken the first step to demonstrate to the whole world that he is capable of the second. He shows readiness for escalation,” the political scientist added.
Moreover, he wants to once again prove to the whole world that he is a psycho and it is better to stay away from him, as the Russian expert noted.

A critical moment for Putin
So the worst cannot be ruled out if a “critical moment” comes for the Kremlin head himself. Gallam believes that he can attack if Ukrainian troops enter the temporarily occupied Crimea.
“Then the way will feel the threat of losing the peninsula. He understands that further, without a doubt, his own faithful comrades-in-arms will overthrow him. This is the moment when, in principle, you can send everything to hell. Is he ready to do this? I don’t know. Nobody knows. “, Gallyamov summed up.
