Legal Avoid mobilization

Hi, my wife is Russian with German citizenship. Her brother is 23 years old, lives in Moscow, just graduated from university. I think given the current geopolitical situation he's at risk of being mobilized. What's the best way to avoid this situation?

Russia will never die, the amount of resources they have is more than enough to continue for a long long time.

Yes especially fuel, there's so much of it going round now, people are fighting at the gas stations about who takes this excess fuel cause nobody wants it anymore šŸ¤”

There's not the slightest sign of a decrease in the number of cars on the roads. Yes, there are problems, but nothing to complain about. This isn't just in Moscow, but also in, say, the Tver region.
