I wonder what was said in the meeting because wager was steam rolling. It smells like it was preplanned with the Russian state

They passed a law to allow Conscripts to fight now. That's my only guess is if they can use this as an excuse to do a full mobilization and finish the Ukrainian situation.

Sure let's give people who are unwilling to fight in Putin's war a weapon, train them how to use it, and hope for the best... just after everyone saw a Wagner mutiny march towards Moscow with little to no resistance.
