But when Putin signed a mobilisation order calling roughly 3,00,000 Russian men to war against Ukraine, Kalinin knew he needed to find a way to dodge the front line. “Leaving would have been a difficult step out of my comfort zone,” the thirty-something man said. “It isn’t exactly comfortable here either but nevertheless, psychologically, it would be really hard to leave.”
