The Russian president also signed the law on the recruitment of criminals in Ukraine
Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Friday that “it is important to remove its residents Peninsula of the most dangerous areas”.
“Now, of course, it is necessary to move those who live in Kherson from the most dangerous zone, because civilians should not suffer from shelling, from attacks, counter-attacks and other measures related to military activities,” he argued, speaking in the context of the national holiday of National Unity Day.
Russian authorities are working to issue Russian documents to refugees from Ukraine in a simplified way, Vladimir Putin said.
The Russian president noted that the refugees who came to Russia from Ukraine “are looking for work.”
Earlier, laying flowers at a Red Square monument, he said that at the beginning of the 17th century, the country was on the verge of losing its sovereignty, but the people of Russia did not allow it, united, and defended their homeland.
The Russian president also signed the law allowing the conscription of citizens convicted of serious crimes after it passed the Russian legislature.
This allows those who have recently served a prison sentence to be sent to war, including those convicted of robbery and drug trafficking.
“318,000 people have been “mobilized” in Russia, of which the 49,000 are located already in Ukraine,” Putin said. As the Russian leader explained, 49,000 men are already carrying out combat missions while all the rest are still training. “The number of volunteers does not stop,” he said.
Meanwhile, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has called the war in Ukraine a holy conflict with Satan, warning that Moscow can send all its enemies “to the eternal fires of Gehenna” (PS: Gehenna is a biblical region referred to in the Old Testament, the “hell” where sinners will be punished after death).
Tens of thousands of people have been killed since the Russian invasion of Ukraine. This is Russia’s biggest confrontation with the West since the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962, when the Cold War superpowers came to the brink of nuclear war.
