In early 2023, the leadership of the Russian Federation plans to start a new wave of mass

mobilization

and introduce martial law in the country to close the borders to men.

Oleksiy Reznikov, the head of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, announced this in a video message.

"I want to appeal to Russian conscripts. First of all, this concerns residents of large cities. I know for sure that you have about one week left to make at least some choice. At the beginning of January, the Russian authorities will close the borders for men, then they will declare martial law." - noted Reznikov.

He said that after the introduction of martial law, the Kremlin plans to start a new mass wave of mobilization.

In Belarus, the regime of the self-proclaimed Lukashenka will also close the borders to men of conscription age.

"I'm not asking you to take my word for it, I want you to ask yourself just one question and answer it honestly: when you go to war, where you can die or be crippled for life, what exactly will you fight for? You personally ", the Minister of Defense added.

We will remind you that it was previously reported that the head of the GUR of the Ministry of Defense Kyrylo Budanov said that
