Russia-Ukraine: Vladimir Putin's move allows Russia to deploy battle-hardened mercenaries from conflicts such as Syria in Ukraine without risking additional Russian military casualties.

Putin has also asked his defense minister to prepare plans for possible fortification of Russia's western border in response to NATO troop movement in eastern Europe.

It will double down on the brutal invasion that the West says has been losing momentum, as Russian troops continue their offensive toward Ukrainian capital Kyiv from the northwest and east.
