The West is starting to"mock" Russia, according to state TV presenter Vladimir Solovyov.On Thursday night, Solovyov bemoaned the state of the war on his Russia-1 show,"It's worrisome, truly worrisome.
"I have a big request for our Army: please start to fight by the regulations, the way you can, the way you have been taught. Let's start announcing newly liberated places. What do you need for this? Three hundred thousand have been mobilized." Solovyov made a veiled criticism of how Putin's partial military mobilization, announced earlier this month, is being conducted amid reports it's disproportionately targeting Russia's ethnic minorities., a predominantly Muslim region of southern Russia, against the draft.
Solovyov said:"At the same time, let's not help our enemies while conducting the partial mobilization. For example, peoples of the far north, endangered populations, small ethnic groups, we should take that into account, make it proportionate with respect to the quantity of the mobilized people."
