Moscow has long been worried about veterans of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s war against Ukraine causing problems when they return to Russia. Russian soldiers in Ukraine, however, are already creating problems for their local governments. Paul Goble, specialist on ethnic and religious questions in Eurasia, said this.
He says that these soldiers are increasingly using their smartphones while fighting in Ukraine, not just to communicate with friends and families but also to send video protests to officials in their hometowns about a wide variety of issues. Video protests are growing in number because commanders are unwilling to confiscate soldiers’ phones and punish those using them. Even though there is currently a ban on soldiers at the front using smartphones, commanders are not enforcing these rules, lest they spark more anger. Protest videos produced by Russian soldiers in Ukraine are increasingly effective because officials in Russia are less willing to ignore the voices of soldiers than civilians. Civilian activists view military personnel as potential allies because soldiers can speak out more freely and are more likely to be heard by the Kremlin.
Unsurprisingly, the Russian government wants to stop soldiers’ infusion of support for opposition groups and plans to conduct a country-wide census of smartphones and related devices. The census could make it easier for Russian commanders to restrict soldiers’ smartphone use, but some say that the plan could exacerbate the issue. Russians have been using videos to try to influence government policy for as long as phones have been able to record and broadcast clips. Kotlovan, also known as The Foundation Pit, a celebrated Russian film directed by Andrey Gryazev in 2020, exemplifies the trend, consisting almost entirely of video appeals to the government. Russian soldiers fighting in Ukraine using video clips to influence officials in their home towns and regions is a more recent development, one that Aleksandr Leonidovich, a journalist for Novaya Gazeta, and researchers at Moscow’s Higher School of Economics have chronicled in detail. Leonidovich stresses that video protests by soldiers in Putin’s invasion forces are one of the last venues for Russians to protest without the expectation of punishment. Soldiers often succeed in their causes, given that officials do not want to appear indifferent to the opinions of those fighting “for Russia.” Opposition groups recognize the sway disgruntled soldiers hold with the government and have begun working closely with them in a united front that poses a distinct threat to the Kremlin.
