Russia could mobilize 1 million more troops: German intelligence

Russia has the potential to mobilize as many as 1 million more troops for its war on Ukraine, according to the head of Germany's BND foreign intelligence service, Report informs, citing Bloomberg.

"Last fall, around 300,000 people were mobilized and recruited, some of them are still being trained, some of them have already been introduced into the fray," BND President Bruno Kahl was quoted as saying by Germany's RND media group.

"Russia's further mobilization potential is a reservoir of up to a million men, if that is deemed necessary in the Kremlin," Kahl said, adding that he currently sees no willingness on the part of President Vladimir Putin to engage in peace talks.
