About 150,000 to 200,000 soldiers   can be

mobilized

in Russia in two to three months .

Ukrainian military expert, reserve colonel Roman Svitan told about it in an interview with journalist Dmytro Gordon.

The expert emphasized that the indicators of the mobilization system depend on how many resources are available in the system for personnel training at least to the basic level.

"It is necessary to conduct three to four months of preparation. The best option is up to six months. And to provide weapons, that is, uniforms and weapons. This is where the Russians have problems. No matter how many summons they hand out, no matter how many Russians they gather - they can prepare somewhere in the middle approximately 150,000–200,000 people in two to three months. This means preparing, equipping, bringing combat coordination to at least the level of a company. Not a battalion, although they can go to a battalion, but at least a company," he explained.

According to Svitan, the Russians have accumulated approximately 400,000 people along the entire line of the Ukrainian front - nearby, on the Russian or temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine, "from Kerch to Valuyki".

"Plus or minus 5%. But almost 400,000 people. These (units - ed.) are already more or less staffed and ready to perform either offensive tasks at several points or defensive tasks in the entire depth of the front," the expert believes.

Svitan also added that another 100,000 mobilized Russians are "hanging around" at training grounds in Russia and Belarus due to a lack of weapons.

"Belarusians are still somehow removing the last of themselves. There father (self-proclaimed president of Belarus Oleksandr Lukashenko -ed.) was left without underwear: mustache and father. He gave everything to the Russians: relatives, loved ones. He squeezed everything and gave everything away. Here they are still being replenished there somehow - and they go: through Valuyki, by the way, these same ones - and they go in the direction of Luhansk," he said.

We will remind,

in one of the Russian higher education institutions, diplomas will be issued to students together with summonses to the Military Commissariat.
