On March 16, 2024, Russian President Vladimir Putin, who had just won the 2024 presidential election, came to the FSB, and at the subsequent meeting of the Security Service, Putin directly issued a hunt and kill order to the FSB officials. The Russian Volunteer Army, the Russian Freedom Corps and other rebel organizations that launched attacks on the Russian mainland in this election and before the election must be identified one by one. After confirming the evidence, they are to hunt them down indefinitely, wherever they go, to make sure that no one has the wrong idea, and that anyone who does it has to think about the consequences of these traitors. After Russian President Vladimir Putin won the victory, he issued the first order to kill Russian traitors, and the reason why Putin, as the Russian president, wanted to give orders to rebel organizations such as the Russian Free Corps, the Russian Liberation Army, and the Siberian Battalion to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots is also based on a variety of reasons.
First, it has a lot to do with Putin's character, as we all know, on December 31, 1999, President Boris Yeltsin, who was in a difficult situation inside and outside Russia, finally decided to hand over power to Putin. After winning the election in 2000, Putin was able to stand out among many Russian politicians and gain support from the military and Russian society because of his decisive approach to the rebels in the Chechen war and his iron hand against terrorists. Putin famously said that if terrorists are caught in the airport toilet, they will be drowned in the toilet, and Putin's domineering statement has completely reversed the decline of Russia's frequent terrorist attacks in a short period of time, and for a long time, it has also deterred domestic terrorists from launching terrorist attacks on Russia.
Today, rebel forces such as the Russian Freedom Corps, the Russian Liberation Army, and the Russian Siberian Battalion have been harassing Russia proper, and have also carried out various sabotage operations against Russia during the election. At this time, Putin finally freed his hands and prepared to attack this rebel army, which already shows that Putin does not want to endure it anymore. Judging by Putin's character and the support he has received from Russian society, Putin will not be spared in the face of these rebel groups made up of Russians.
Second, the reason why Putin wants to target these people in the Russian Freedom Corps is because these people have already caused harm to Russian society through their actions, and these people are proper Russian traitors, and they can already be legally defined as traitors. In the face of traitors, any country will definitely use iron-blooded means to eradicate them, let alone the political strongman of Russian President Vladimir Putin, and even more so for Russia, a country that has always believed in iron-blooded methods. Since the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, the Siberian battalion, the Russian Free Corps, and the Russian Liberation Army have spared no effort in attacking the Russian mainland, and even more powerful than the Ukrainian army. These people have become traitors to the Russian nation, they have become enemies of the Russian state, and after Putin wins a new presidential term, of course, it is impossible to let these people go, and the reason why Putin wants to issue a kill order is because these people are already traitors and traitors.
Third, the reason why Putin issued the order to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots is because these rebel organizations are not only composed of Russians, but also become a tool for Ukraine and Western countries to interfere, sabotage and subvert Russian society. This means that they have become a proxy tool for receiving money and technical equipment assistance from Western countries, which is absolutely intolerable for the current Russia. Whether it is in this Russia-Ukraine conflict or in the current Russian presidential election, Russian President Vladimir Putin's promise to Russian society is to completely eradicate the agents of Western intelligence agencies in Russia. A series of previous legislations, as well as the current killing of rebel organizations such as the Russian Freedom Corps, have shown that any group, individual, or organization in Russian society that willingly accepts money from the West and is willing to become a tool of the West to undermine the unity of Russian society, Russia will absolutely use law and force to severely punish them. Therefore, Putin said that to find out these people, even the ends of the earth must bring them to justice, and Putin said that in the next six years in power, there will be absolutely no opposition to form a climate in Russia.
Fourth, the reason why Putin has said so strongly that he wants to kill these rebel groups is because the existence of these organizations has indeed made Russia, as a world power, a bit of a faceless. Since Russia officially became independent on December 25, 1991, more than 30 years have passed until today, and Russia has such a tough approach, and there are still rebel forces composed mainly of ethnic Russians in the country, which also makes Putin have nowhere to put his face, and Russia has no credibility in the world. No major country, in its own country and in its borders, would never allow such a rebel armed force to exist under such a flag, openly waving the banner and calling for Moscow. After the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, these rebel forces received monetary assistance from the West, but they sprung up in the Russian border areas and caused great disruption to Russian society with their actual actions.
This is intolerable for Putin and even for Russia, which, after all, is now single-handedly provoking the entire Western world and unmistakably calling out the United States. Therefore, from the perspective of maintaining the prestige of a great power, Putin must also be ruthless and completely eliminate these rebel forces, after all, these rebel forces have become an anti-Russian force in the hands of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. If Russia can solve these weapons once and for all, it will naturally form a strong deterrent to Ukraine's special operations forces, and thus ensure Russia's victory against Ukraine on the frontal battlefield as well as on the rear battlefield.
All in all, after Putin's victory, he issued the first lore order, and rebel forces such as the Russian Freedom Corps, the Russian Volunteer Army, and the Siberian Battalion are estimated to usher in their own catastrophe.
