The dictator declares that Russians live in a unique historical moment.
President Dictator of Russia Vladimir Putin continues his efforts to prepare the country's population for a long war.
This is stated in the report of the American Institute for the Study of War.
Analysts note that Putin, at a meeting of the Council for Strategic Development and National Projects of the Russian Federation and the State Council Commission on Socio-Economic Development, said that all Russians should realize that they are living through a unique historical moment. According to the “Fuhrer,” they must “work as if they were on the front line” and “feel mobilized” to achieve the Russian Federation’s goals.
ISW notes that Kremlin officials often invoke Soviet myths about the Great Patriotic War, as World War II is known in the Russian Federation, to drum up support and trust in Russia's war effort among their citizens. It is likely, American experts believe, that Putin intended to evoke similar memories of Soviet sacrifice and full-scale social and economic mobilization.
“ISW previously assessed that Putin's decision to appoint Andrei Belousov as Russia's defense minister was a significant step in his efforts to mobilize the Russian economy for a long war against Ukraine and possibly prepare for the upcoming confrontation with NATO,” it added. report.
Moreover, the Institute is convinced, the dictator of the Russian Federation will likely continue various informational and rhetorical attempts to prepare Russian society for greater economic mobilization, “if he intends to pursue such an unpopular policy of further economic and social mobilization in the middle and long term.”
Recall that ex-KGB officer Sergei Zhirnov says that Putin has reformed his regime. After his inauguration, serious changes began in the military-political leadership of the country . The generals may not like the sharp actions of the head of the Kremlin.
