Jeez the amount of misinformation and bias here...
Putin is recalling reservists to send to Ukraine, the Russians are not drafting new or existing conscripts to go and fight. Akin to what Singapore would do if we need more than just regulars in the armed forces for whatever reason. Meaning us... But given there isnt compulsory conscription in Russia, they're basically calling back veterans who are operationally ready to go. It's part of their national duty, as it is ours should the day come.
Also, the war is going terribly for Ukraine and the West. A protracted war on the other hand, is exactly what Russia wants.
