Return of 700,000-strong Russian army in Ukraine is not allowed: Putin calls them a potential risk

When President Vladimir Putin praised veterans of the war in Ukraine this year as “the elite who defend the Motherland,” he cast them as a generation of men ready to lead Russia into the future.

“It’s not frightening to hand the country over to people like this,” he said.

Yet the return of Russian soldiers from Ukraine is already straining families and communities, with violent crimes drawing headlines and neighbors on edge. With some 700,000 men still fighting, the country now faces the far larger test of what will happen when they all come home.

“War veterans often find it difficult to integrate back into civilian society even with psychological support and rehabilitation programs,” Dr. Jenny Mathers, senior lecturer in international politics at Aberystwyth University, told The Moscow Times.

“The absence of such support for many Russian war veterans, combined with the emphasis in Russian society on men displaying certain types of masculine behavior — such as toughness, concealing softer emotions such as sorrow or fear — will make it even harder,” said Mathers, whose research focuses on Russia’s war in Ukraine.

Cases of returning soldiers committing crimes have been steadily growing. Experts warn that in some cases, only a short time passed between sentencing and deployment to the front — raising concerns that once back, these fighters may turn their anger on those involved in their prosecution.

The Foundation for the Support of Victims of Crime in March called for ending the practice of pardoning men convicted of serious crimes in exchange for fighting in Ukraine.

The Kremlin is well aware of these dangers. Putin himself has reportedly identified the return of soldiers as a potential risk to social stability, Reuters reported, citing three sources close to the Kremlin.

One source told Reuters that the goal is to avoid a repeat of the social upheaval that followed the Soviet Union’s war in Afghanistan, when veterans returned to find little support and went on to fuel organized crime in the turbulent 1990s.

To minimize public alarm, the Kremlin has instructed pro-government media outlets to play down reports of crimes committed by veterans, the exiled news website Meduza reported. The return of thousands of men from the battlefield could also trigger a mental health crisis in Russia, experts warn. Nikolai Khlyzov, the human rights commissioner in Siberia’s Zabaikalsky region, said that men returning from combat do not want to attend psychotherapy and urged soldiers to visit psychologists with their families.

“They say: ‘What, am I sick or something? What if they put me on some kind of list — then I could lose my driver’s license and won’t be able to get a job’,” Khlyzov said.
