A Russian MP has stated that newly mobilised troops will be given a mere two weeks to train before being sent to the frontline to fight for their country.
This comes following a rare address to the Russian nation today in which Vladimir Putin announced the partial mobilisation of his country’s military - and called up reservists to fight in his war against Ukraine.
Vowing to protect what the tyrant considers his territory, he said that Russia would use all the means at its disposal to do so.
