(ANSA) - ROME, SEPTEMBER 22 - The soldiers who could be recalled to the front by Russia in light of the partial mobilization announced by Vladimir Putin would not be 300,000, as declared by Defense Minister Serghei Shoigu, but one million.
This was stated by Novaya Gazeta Europe, citing a source from the Kremlin.
The site reminds that article 7 of the decree, which indicates the number of people who can be enlisted, has been secreted.
"The figure was corrected several times and ultimately settled for one million," the source said.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov denied the reconstruction, calling it "a lie" at TASS.
