The Russian Army has traditionally relied on brute force and Russia’s advantage in manpower to win a war. The Russian Army has been slow to transform into a smaller, mobile and professional volunteer army. Changing the mindset of the Soviet time is no easy task in modern Russia.

No. All this because George H Bush and George W Bush gave the world demonstrations of what modern war actually look like.
