Press Secretary of the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov answered a question from journalists about whether the mobilization in Russia will be announced at the plenary session of the Eastern Economic Forum, which Vladimir Putin will take part in.
Peskov said he has difficulty understanding why such a question is being asked.
“Nobody talks about it anywhere,” he said.
The head of the Kremlin press service added that he had “not seen or heard this anywhere.”
Earlier, Peskov admitted that Ukraine would be affected one way or another at the WEF plenary session with Vladimir Putin on September 7. At the same time, he stressed that this issue will not be the main one, since international cooperation in the Far East will be mainly discussed.
