“Russia’s parliament has passed a law scrapping an upper age limit for people signing up to join the army, in a sign Moscow may be looking to recruit more troops for its military campaign in Ukraine.
Under current legislation, Russians aged 18 to 40 and foreign nationals aged 18 to 30 have the right to sign their first military service contract.”
So Volkssturm, not Pimpfe. Yet.
(Also, der. Not das.)

Presumably Putin understands that, but it’s also kind of in his interest to make world leaders think he doesn’t care. The people on Kremlin TV…who knows. How much does Tucker Carlson believe what he says? He’s also on Kremlin TV, you know.
