In a move surprising to no one with a clue, within days since the election circus, Russian officials announce creation of a massive amount of new military units, which can only mean an incoming mobilization wave. For those with no idea of military terms, those units mean at least low hundreds of thousands of people.

Ah, so a "paper battalion" like seen in armies of old (especially the Napoleonic Wars-era).

You mean that:
a) Politicians being politicians they tend to keep bad news for after the elections, like, in every single country on the planet since there have been elections?
b) Zomg, when a lot fo your neighbours have decided to aid and abet internal and external enemies you might decide to increase your military capabilities?

Captain obvious....

Yeah, it's all about the neighbors, please ignore the massive ongoing war, nothing is going on except neighbors being hostile for no reason at all.

You mean a war where it's neighbors bankroll and support it's enemy?

Yup, that certainly isn't a reason for them to remilitarize...

1.In kgbstan there is no elections,so no need to hide anything from population,becouse they would obey anyway.
2.Moscov started war,failed to win in week,and now are fighting like idiots.If they were smart,they would made deal with demorats,like Sralin.
Becouse Sralin could take part of Europe ONLY becouse demrats let him.But Putin belive in myth,that soviets win on their own,and try to do so.

Good for us,smart czekist would own Poland by now.

Eh, I doubt it. My guess is that they go with a different Russian Classic: the conscript division. Sure, one guy gets the rifle, the other the ammo, but Russia does have a ton of bodies to spend.
That's a pretty widely debunked myth, the Soviets back then and Russians now have plenty of arms and ammo, it's logistics, training, coordination, and the Kremlin only caring about ultimate victory which means they'll happily send 2/3rds of these new units as human ablative armor to exhaust the Ukrainians while the remaining third are the actual breakthrough troops like Bakhmut and Avdiivka.
