Gerasimov complains about high intensity of hostilities, which Russia has not yet experienced

Valery Gerasimov, the Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Federation, has complained that the intensity of hostilities in the war in Ukraine has put the occupying Russian troops in conditions that they have not encountered in the history of modern Russia.

Valery Gerasimov, the Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Federation, has complained that the intensity of hostilities in the war in Ukraine has put the occupying Russian troops in conditions that they have not encountered in the history of modern Russia.

Source: Gerasimov in an interview, quoted by RBK.ru

Quote from Gerasimov: "It should be noted that our country's mobilisation training system has not been fully adapted to the new modern economic relations. Therefore, we had to correct everything on the fly."

Details: According to Gerasimov, the General Staff, in cooperation with subjects of the Russian Federation, recruited 300,000 citizens to the army during the partial mobilisation.

The Chief of the General Staff has noted that modern Russia has never experienced "such a level and intensity of warfare", as today "practically the entire collective West is opposing it".

Relationship between the ANC & RU (USSR) goes back at least to the 60’s.

It goes back to 1921 when Comrade Bill Andrews founded the SA Communist Party. In 1928 Stalin decreed that all whites in leadership positions in the SACP were to be replaced by blacks and Comrade JT Gumede took over leadership.

Huh? The US is the biggest arms exporter in the world.

It is. But to very few countries because to use US arms, you need US permission. If the US disagrees that your enemy is your enemy because they're the US's friend, you can't use US arms against them.

How many European countries use US arms?

Not closing the border... not at all.. just collecting the information for easier mobilization

Russians to require booking to cross border by car: TASS​

Russia is set to make changes to its transport law which will make it mandatory for people to book a time and place for any intended crossing of the border by car, TASS news agency reported.
“The passage of vehicles … in order to cross the state border of the Russian Federation is carried out on a reserved date and time in accordance with the procedure established by the government,” the agency said later on Monday, citing a draft amendment it said was due to come into force on March 1.
Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, many Russian citizens and residents fled the country, with the number growing significantly after the government declared the mobilisation of some 300,000 personnel for the military in September.
