Although literally, '''mobilization''' means "to make mobile" it is mainly used relating to [[military]] activity.

Mobilization is the act of making both troops and supplies ready for war and the logistics involved in deploying them in conflict zones.
Mobilization is the act of making both troops and supplies ready for war and the [[logistics]] involved in deploying them in conflict zones.
In the period leading up to the [[First World War]], senior military advisors monitoring external military forces, analyzed the information to determine if it's just an exercise, and if not, reported to political leaders what they perceived as a general mobilization by their counterparts. The information was interpreted to mean "mobilization means [[war]]," and the country observing the mobilization invoked its own mobilization, rapidly escalating tensions beyond the control of politicians and [[diplomat]]s. Millions of active duty and reservists were mobilized into [[military]] units and sent to the front. Within 60 days, 2 million soldiers from both sides had been killed.

Additionally all military service contracts currently in force (usually 3 to 12 months) were extended indefinitely. All soldiers serving at the front were to receive the same pay contract soldiers receive, including prisoners recruited out of prisons in exchange for a for a full pardon. The pay was 195,000 rubles per month (about $3,750 at current exchange rates). Putin said that the current conflict was instigated by the West, noting that the Western countries seek the destruction and disintegration of Russia. He said that the West had been supporting international terrorists, promoted the [[infrastructure]] of the NATO offensive close to Russia's borders and fostered [[Russophobia]].
