Russian politicians and high-ranking figures have reportedly
received a warning from President Vladimir Putin to fly home their
loved-ones and relatives living abroad to the 'Motherland', amid heightened tensions over the prospect of global war.
According to the Dailymail UK,
administration staff, regional administrators, lawmakers of all levels
and employees of public corporations have been ordered to take their
children out of foreign schools immediately, adding that failure to act
will see officials jeopardising their chances of promotion, local media
has reported.
The exact reason for the order is not yet clear.
This development is coming after President Putin cancelled a
planned visit to France amid a furious row over Moscow's role in the
Syrian conflict.
Former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev has also warned that the world is at a 'dangerous point' due to rising tensions between Russia and the US.
Speaking to a correspondent, a Russian political analyst, Stanislav Belkovsky is as saying: 'This is all part of the package of measures to prepare elites to some 'big war'.'
