A set of volunteers of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation can only compensate for losses - military intelligence of Estonia

Estonian intelligence believes that Russian President Vladimir Putin will not decide on the announcement of mobilization on the eve of the election, but will try to compensate for the loss at the front. According to the assessment of the Estonia Defense Forces, the armed forces of the Russian Federation were able to fill their losses in nine months, but in order to intercept the initiative at the front, this is not enough.

This was stated by the head of the Defense Forces of Estonia forces of ANS Kiviselg, reports ERR. Active recruitment of volunteers allows the Kremlin to bypass the next wave of mobilization. According to Ants Kiviselga, the Russian Federation will be able to recruit as many volunteers as they have lost in the war against Ukraine. "You saw how Ukraine has taken the initiative in the spring and summer, and if Russia wants to return it, they will need even more people.

He noted that the decision on mobilization is unpopular, especially before the election of the President of the Russian Federation. Therefore, most likely, Moscow will not take such a step. Estonian intelligence noted that instead of mobilization, Vladimir Putin instructed the former head of the headquarters of the Wagner PEC on September 29, Andriy Troshev to engage in the formation of volunteer units.

We will remind, on September 24 it was reported that in the CNS told that to do those who were called to the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. The invaders violate international humanitarian law, calling for the service of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation of Ukrainians. In the underground, they called for those who were forcibly mobilized into the enemy's army.
