Putin removes age limit for conscripts as Russian forces devastated

  1. Considering the conscripted personnel won’t even serve in combat and will only be assigned to logistics behind the frontline, this is a huge blow to the Russian economy, because men are taken away from their jobs, thus creating a significant lack of employees. Believe it or not, this is a major reason why [Ukraine’s real GDP decreased 35%](https://www.imf.org/en/Publications/WEO/weo-database/2022/October/weo-report?c=926,&s=NGDP_R,NGDP_RPCH,NGDPD,PPPGDP,NGDPRPC,NGDPRPPPPC,NGDPDPC,PPPPC,PCPIPCH,LUR,&sy=2020&ey=2022&ssm=0&scsm=1&scc=0&ssd=1&ssc=0&sic=0&sort=country&ds=.&br=1) during 2022. Over a quarter of Ukraine’s population have left their homes, thus their working places.

  2. This is the upper age limit for the national guard (Rosgvardia). I’m not sure if they actually conscript, since they are a somewhat “private (AKA report to Putin)” organization.

  3. This mad man would rather see his country’s future completely destroyed then admit defeat and relinquish power. Hope he falls from a tall building
