Where is Russia going to find its soldiers for 2026? - Eastern Express - TVP WORLD



Russia has authorised military training assemblies for reservists in 2026 – including a new category for protecting “critical infrastructure.”

In this episode of Eastern Express, host Jonasz Rewińskiwe breaks down who can be called up, how summonses are delivered, and what the law actually allows. Russia’s growing manpower problems are only made more dire by stalled mobilization plans.

Though there’s no sign of a coming mobilization, the system is being quietly adjusted for a long war.
