russian dictator vladimir putin has signed another decree to increase the size of the russian armed forces. The size of the enemy army will now amount to 2.389 million people, including 1.5 million military personnel.

◽️ This is putin’s third such decree since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. During this time, the size of the enemy army has increased by almost half a million people.

‼️ The new document once again demonstrates that all statements by putin, other high-ranking russian officials, and their propaganda about “readiness for peace talks” are merely imitations. The systematic expansion of the army indicates preparation for escalation and a prolonged war.

Moreover, putin’s decree debunks russian propaganda’s claims of minimal russian losses in Ukraine. Russian army growth by almost 25% over two years suggests massive enemy losses and a desire to compensate for them by expanding the number of military personnel.
