Comments from the latest available experts  

“Putin’s move to mobilize 300,000 additional Russian soldiers breaks his long-term social contract with the Russian people – you stay out of politics and the Russian state won’t intervene in your life. Now, Putin’s decision to enter the war and the Russian military’s ongoing atrocities are hurting Russians in terms of their physical safety and economic well-being.

Russian citizens can no longer stand on the sidelines or pretend that they don’t know what is going on. This is a major change in the country and will force both Russians and the country’s allies to clarify where they stand and take sides. “
