There's already no limit on current mobilization, it's "partial" in the same way that this war is a "special military operation".
I have read the same thing.
Zeihan's comment on the mobilization is that Russia is already struggling with the logistics of supplying their current forces, and that logistics will be the limiting factor in how effective they are. He sees these new troops as essentially untrained and poorly armed, and unable to stop Ukrainian advances in the short term. How does that sound to you?
A big unknown is what percentage of Russian equipment is actually functional.
To be honest, i think he should be president at the beginning of the recovery using the gravitas collected in the conflict and thats it.
IMHO, i believe that the skills for leading at war not always works for day to day politics but more important, his extreme high popularity due to this extreme unique event would make him make mistakes and no one would opose him when something would go wrong because he would be an alive historical figure equaly to churchill for ukranians
Yes, his goodwill would emphatically lubricate the political process and help draw investment as they'll see him as a stable leader. If he does make mistakes people will be happy to sweep them under the carpet.
It's worth mentioning he was unpopular before the war, I know nothing about all that, perhaps a seed of doubt could be planted from those struggles. But I'm hopeful, the world badly needs authentic leaders who will actually represent their voters instead of their donors.
