The problem is that the # of refuseniks is substantial so this would depend on successful coercion. And if you have units with several soldiers who don't want to fight, you'll have an increase in soldiers sabotaging their vehicles, disobedience, etc. Nightmare for morale.

@Poutsup They don't have any good options, so they keep pursuing short-term solutions without a long-term plan. It is just Whac-A-Mole applied to manpower problems.

Good point. Even if passed, it isn't clear how it will be applied. The Kremlin certainly hopes this is enough to coerce refuseniks to fight, but doesn't actually want to put many soldiers in prison. Maybe there will one or two well-publicized cases. 3/

@maryilyushina:
Judging by two swift hearings in the Duma today it will most likely get passed, but the language of the law is quite broad and mentions “in case of ongoing combat actions.” So I wonder if this would be used as a threat regardless of the legal status of “military operation” https://t.co/A4O13PUhO0

@maxseddon The thing is when Putin wants to make a move, he does not care about the legal framework. He just acts. This looks more like a political move to stress the audience. Although, of course, this does not mean that mobilization will not begin in the near future

@Mortis_Banned But more difficult to prove equipment damage was due to negligence than outright refusal. Plus, I can imagine most Russian equipment isn't in the best shape.
