Quote from Nikolayev at a meeting on mobilisation: "There are cases of the mobilisation of citizens who should not have been drafted. For example, cases of the conscription of parents with large families, those who have four or more children under 16. To rule out such cases, I have ordered local self-government bodies to increase their interaction with military enlistment offices.
All those who were mobilised by mistake must be sent back."
Details: He added that this work has already begun, and in the future it would be monitored by his administration and the government of Yakutia, together with the Republic’s Military Committee.
Nikolayev also said he had proposed that the government take measures to support the mobilised men’s families.
The measures comprise a one-off payment to the family of 200,000 roubles [US$3,400], an exemption from kindergarten fees, free school meals, and tickets to children's health camps.
