Protests in Russia after partial mobilization

People took to the streets in many cities after Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a partial mobilization. According to local sources, more than 60 people have been detained in the protests so far. Many people started to leave the country in order not to be recruited.

The Prosecutor’s Office reminded the Russian people that illegal activities such as distributing anti-war leaflets, participating in unauthorized protest demonstrations, and opposing law enforcement officers can result in up to 15 years in prison, and they were asked not to comply with these calls for demonstrations.

EU Nears 18th Sanctions Package Against Russia

0

EU Foreign Policy Chief Kaja Kallas said a political agreement on the 18th sanctions package against Russia is imminent, expressing hope it would be reached today. Speaking ahead of the EU Foreign Affairs Council meeting, Kallas emphasized continued support for Ukraine and welcomed the US decision to send advanced weapons systems.

Addressing other global issues, Kallas noted some improvements in Gaza but warned that the humanitarian situation remains dire. She stressed the need for practical implementation of aid agreements with Israel.

Kallas also raised concerns about Iran and Georgia. She said sanctions under the Iran nuclear deal may automatically resume, and visa liberalization for Georgia could be suspended due to political deterioration.

Commenting on Russia, Kallas stated, “The US has also realized that Russia doesn’t actually want peace,” and called for more international pressure to end the war in Ukraine.
