The announcement of mobilization in the Russian Federation will not affect the front for several months - US General

Ben Gogess's US military considers that Russia will not be able to attract many people to war. In addition, it will take time to train and equip soldiers. If the Russian government decides to declare general mobilization, then the effect of it will be noticeable in a few months. Former US troops in Europe, a US General Ben Gogess, told this in an interview with RBC-Ukraine. According to him, it is unlikely that Russia will be able to attract many people in the war in Ukraine.

In addition, it will take several weeks or months to equip, teach and prepare soldiers for fighting. Ben Gogeges noted that mobilized military wounds or kill the first unless they study quickly. The American general also believes that mobilized Russians will be sent to the units of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, which already exist for their replenishment. If they are divided into new units, then it will take time to prepare for the war.

Ben Goodges expects that mobilized Russians will appear on the front a few months after the start of mobilization in the Russian Federation. "And I doubt it will noticeably affect the fighting for many months," he said. On September 20, the GUR noted that Russian propaganda prepares the Russians for the announcement of general mobilization. According to the representative of Ukrainian intelligence Vadim Skibitsky, it will show whether the Russians are ready to continue the bloody war.
