The head of the Federation Council Committee of the Russian Federation for Defense and Security, the former commander-in-chief of the Russian Air Force, Colonel General Viktor Bondarev, answered the question whether additional conscription can be announced in Russia in connection with a special military operation of the Russian Armed Forces Ukraine.
“I think there are enough volunteers who go there alone to restore order,” the senator replied.
Bondarev added that the Russian army could not move by leaps and bounds because Ukrainian troops “hide behind a human shield”. He described the achievement of the objectives of the special operation as a “question of time”.
