Kremlin Security Strategic Shifts

Defense force members will now have to secure petroleum plants against aerial attacks after Vladimir Putin enacted a decree on Tuesday extending their entanglement in the military campaign. The national leader also approved legislation permitting draft enrollment throughout the year whereas earlier it occurred only during specific times in fall and spring.

Heavy military spending have also started to pressure the national finances, with authorities hiking rates to plug a rising deficit.

The Moscow's representation later offered regrets for the passing of a Romanian worker in the accident but took the opportunity to complain that the angry response to the remarks was prejudiced toward the federation.
