"Ocopes look like Las Vegas": The Times about drug use in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation

The Russian edition of "Land" spoke with dozens of soldiers of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, who use drugs to imagine the scale of the problem. One of the soldiers said that it is easy to get drugs: "right in Las Vegas. " "Everyone knows if you use drugs in the trenches because they are small. However, everyone is sneaking; He added that drugs are used from boredom, because war is a constant expectation of something and prayer, so that it would end faster.

When he consumed "salt", he did not think about the consequences, because the boredom is much worse. It is noted that drugs even volunteers deliver drugs: marijuana or amphetamine are easily accessible. It is also stated that the locals of the occupied territories could also sell drugs in the Russian Federation. The Russian military can earn up to 200 thousand rubles a month, which is 4 times higher than the average salary in the Russian Federation.

Therefore, some soldiers buy stimulants, amphetamine, "salts" or other synthetic drugs. This leads to aggression or even suicides. For three syringes of prohibited substances take about 15 thousand rubles. The addict from the occupied Mariupol Vadim said that drugs in the temporarily occupied regions of Ukraine are at least twice as expensive than in Moscow. However, this does not repel from their purchase.

"Most soldiers in the city use amphetamine, Mephadron," salt " - I saw [Russian soldiers under the hoop], and more than once. I could say that they were not in their mind," Vadim said. The publication states that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is difficult to maintain discipline and moral spirit, they complain about high losses and incompetent leadership. However, not all invaders are drug addicts.
