He stated that no one canceled the mobilization and confirmed that its continuation "is a settled issue."
During the closed part of the narrow-format meeting, the President turned out to be more talkative, making several "progressive" statements.

#Putin said it was necessary to implement the idea of a quick and effective "special operation" against a neighboring country, where victory can be practically "guaranteed." The President considers #Georgia to be such a country.

#Putin is confident that if an agreement is reached with a part of the current leadership of #Georgia, it is possible to provoke a conflict, implement a winning scenario, and help that part of the pro-Russian leadership of Georgia get rid of "undesirable elements" in power.

At the same time, the President of #Russia is going to solve the "#Armenian issue". However, he did not specify how. Ready-made scenarios for the special operation have been on the President's table since last fall.

Now, #Putin has given the order to adapt them to today's realities and submit them to him by February 1.

Over the weekend, Putin held a series of consultations with people from his inner circle.

The topic for discussion was "peace proposals" transmitted through informal channels by the leadership of an influential intermediary country to the President. The essence of the proposals is that #Putin is offered to withdraw troops to the borders on February 23, 2022.

It is assumed that the President of #Russia will be able to declare this a "victory", which will allow him or his "successor" to be elected President no later than March 2024. At the same time, #Ukraine is guaranteed accession to #NATO in the summer of 2024.

Seven guarantor countries are ready to act as mediators. The #Ukrainian side has not yet received these proposals. The mediators are waiting for a response from #Putin.

The President of #Russia was warned that in the event of a refusal, #Ukraine would be supplied with all the necessary weapons to defeat Russian troops throughout Ukraine to return to the borders as of December 1991.
#Putin thinks.
