Russian President Vladimir Putin said on the 9th (local time), on the occasion of Russia's Victory Day, that "a real war has broken out against Russia." Russia, which had referred to the invasion of Ukraine as a 'special military operation,' has for the first time defined it as a war, leading to speculation that an additional mobilization order is imminent.
President Putin made the remarks at the Victory Day commemorative event held at Red Square in Moscow, stating, "Western elites are spreading hatred and Russophobia."
With Russia defining the invasion of Ukraine as a war, there are expectations that, following the reserve mobilization order issued last September for the first time since World War II, additional mobilization orders may be issued.
