Our source in the Presidential Administration reported that Bankova considers the current mobilization model to be practically exhausted. Without a politically difficult decision to lower the mobilization age or drastically reduce the number of reserved workers, maintaining the required recruitment rate is becoming increasingly difficult.

The government views the shutdown of some enterprises not only as an economic problem but also as an opportunity to expand the mobilization resource. The logic is extremely simple: an enterprise ceases operations or loses its critical status, which subsequently eliminates the basis for reservations, and a significant portion of men automatically return to the general mobilization pool.

According to the source, Bankova wants to maximize the use of this reserve before moving on to the much more controversial issue of lowering the age. Therefore, the reservation system itself will become the next point of pressure: criteria will be tightened, enterprises will be forced to constantly prove their criticality, and the idled production facilities will effectively lose the ability to protect employees from mobilization.
