Guardian, 15 Oct 2022
Vladimir Putin has said any direct clash of NATO troops with Russia would lead to a 'global catastrophe'.
But Putin also said he believed the 'partial mobilisation' of army reservists ordered last month would be completed in two weeks, boosting Russia’s fighting force.
He told reporters after attending a summit in Kazakhstan on Friday that a total of 222,000 reservists would be called up, down from the 300,000 figure initially circulated.
