Mobilization in Russia and "referendums" is a huge gift to Ukraine - Arestovich

He is convinced that the only result of these actions will be the approach of the revolution in Russia and the collapse of the Putin regime. Arestovich believes that mobilization will not improve the situation of the Russian army, since the country lacks infrastructure for its conduct, above all, not enough younger commanders who should teach recruits. In addition, forcibly mobilized Russians will not burn the desire to fight, which will affect their combat capability.

In addition, mobilization will destroy the unwritten treaty between the authorities and Russian society, which is ready to see the war only on TV. And calling into the army of hidden opponents of the war will lead to the fact that people who hate the Russian president will receive weapons.

Carrying out "referendums" provokes a sharp reaction of the international community, which will provide Ukraine with even more military assistance and impose new sanctions against Russia, and resistance will increase in the occupied territories. "Yes, it is an escalation. She will get Putin," Arestovich is sure. "I thought for a long time: whether they dare to do this idiocy in the form of mobilization/referendum? Reduction of war at least half a year and a year.

" We will remind, the occupation administrations of Lugansk and Donetsk regions appointed the date of conducting a fake "referendum" on the entry of regions into the Russian Federation. They want to spend it between September 23 and 27. Also, the chairman of the occupation administration of the Kherson region, Volodymyr Saldo, stated that the "authorities" of the region made a decision on the preparation and holding of a "referendum on the entry of the Kherson region into the Russian Federation".
