Most recent report at 0900 (now) New York, says he called up 30,000 reservists.

300,000. I think this is a strategic mistake longterm for Russia.

Thanks. That is a sizable bump. Did you also hear that the number of people suddenly leaving Russia also jumped right after the announcement.

A draft is not the best sign. The important leverage Russia holds against Europe depends on the fact that Russia has natural gas and Europe doesn't. If Ukraine gets the east back, Europe no longer needs Russia. I understand how this is somewhat life and death for Russia, but a draft just indicates that you've lost, but now with more death.
