After the announcement of partial mobilization by Vladimir Putin, 261,000 men left Russia . 

About this edition. “Novaya Gazeta. Europe” said a source in the administration of the Russian president.

Discussions inside the Kremlin about closing the borders for men of military age began on Wednesday, when figures from the security forces began to come in about the number of men who are leaving Russia, the journalists explain

According to the interlocutor, the latest FSB certificate, which today, September 25, “walked around the offices,” refers to the figure of 261,000 men who left the Russian Federation from Wednesday to Saturday evening.

A Kremlin source doubts the veracity of the FSB data, since the FSB border service “did not work so quickly.” 

At the same time, “the atmosphere at the Presidential Administration is such that the security forces and the Ministry of Defense can convince Putin to close the exit before it’s too late.”

    • I think it is more likely the border countries like Finland, Georgia and Kazakhstan will close their borders. I wonder if another country in history has such an exodus of males in their past? Yeah, everything is going as planned…

  1. I wonder how many are hiding within mafia land’s borders. Certainly, not all can flee to other countries. Too bad they didn’t all get together to start a Red Square Maidan. The core of their entire problem is a stinking little sewer rat in the Kremlin.
