Moscow's Security Policy Changes

Defense force members will now have to guard oil refineries against aerial attacks after Vladimir Putin approved legislation on Tuesday increasing their involvement in the military campaign. The head of state also approved legislation permitting draft enrollment throughout the year whereas earlier it occurred only during restricted intervals in cooler seasons.

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