It certainly is, and maybe we’ll see it again? I genuinely don’t know the internal situation in Russia right now. I know a large portion of the population aren’t fans of Putin, and surely a lot of them are willing to protest. The old timers and more conservative elements of the population though? I don’t know if they’d support a draft or not. And how heavy a hand would Putin take with his own people if the protesting gets bad? Just a lot of unknowns there.
