As for the Russian mobilization of 300,000 reservists and former soldiers, for the head of the Ukrainian Armed Forces “maybe they are not so well equipped, but they still represent a problem for us. We calculate that they have a reserve of 1.2- 1.5 million people”
And he continued: “The Russians are preparing some 200,000 new soldiers. I have no doubt that they will make another attempt at kyiv.”
