2/ The Russian milblogger 'Vault 8' spots "signs of a possible détente":
"After the New Year, the paperwork, contrary to expectations, did not go down, but remained at the same level and even increased."

8/ "And among everyone, including regular officers, there is an opinion that this is a tectonic shift towards détente.

11/ Corroborating 'Vault 8', the 'Diary of a Mobilised Musician' comments:
