  1. Major flaws in Dopey's calculations! 1) 2m unmarried men in that age group - However, only those with previous military service AND specialist training or experience, who ALSO meet the fitness criteria, would be mobilised! 2) Mobilised troops are not allowed to leave the country! Passports are checked against the mobilised lists. 3) Mobilisation is on a regional quota basis. E.g. Mobilisation has been cancelled in Moscow region, which has already met its quota - but not yet in St Petersburg. 4) There is an exemption from mobilisation for men with 3 or more children. 5) Recent financial incentives for parents, introduced by the Govt, may influence the number of couples who marry - to start a family. If Russia sends 500,000 troops to Ukraine instead of 300,000, then Ukraine's end will come sooner!
