Putin's announced mobilization in Russia led to some minor protests. They began to realize that the war had come to the Russian Federation.
About this Channel 24said the Russian opposition journalist Igor Yakovenko. He stressed that people now already feel an immediate threat to their lives.
Did the announcement of mobilization affect the Russians
Yakovenko believes that Putin’s statement about the beginning of partial mobilization began to influence the Russians. After all, in essence, this means that he declared war on Russia.
That is, the war came to Russia. Before that, it means that there was no war in Russia, the Russians watched what was happening on TV,” the opposition journalist said.
But, according to him, when the war came to the house of every Russian as a result of mobilization, then many of them have changed attitudes. Because the lives of a large number of Russians are actually at risk.

When there will be a turning point and the security forces will join
Yakovenko noted that now Russia is already undergoing a turnaround. After all, people feel a direct threat to their lives.
When “loads of 200” go en masse to people's homes. So, of course, a turning point will occur and there is no doubt that this will be the same effect, including on the security forces,” he said.
An opposition journalist noted that mobilization in Russia is now somewhat selective, since the bulk are called from remote regions, such as Buryatia and Yakutia.
Still, raids in Moscow and St. Petersburg have not yet been carried out. But there is no doubt that in the end everything will reach the big cities, – said Yakovenko.
Then, the journalist stressed, the protests will take on a completely different character. Finally, the security forces will join them. That is, this dynamics will be in general.
He added that if a million Russians protest now, they will be destroyed by the appropriate resources. But when the Ukrainian army continues to grind, in particular, the Russian security forces, then the Putin regime will inevitably fall, since it will no longer be supported by the main support, which is now the power structures.
Pay attention! Despite the statements Vladimir Putin and Sergei Shoigu that only men with military experience are mobilized in Russia, in fact the situation is different.
