Sergei Shoigu, Minister of Defence of the Russian Federation, assured that in the near future Russia will occupy the entire Luhansk region, as well as form new military units in the west of the country in response to the intention of Sweden and Finland to join NATO.

Details: "Shoigu said that the ‘liberation’ of the Luhansk People's Republic will be completed soon."
He also added that the occupiers "continue to expand control over the territories of Donbas."
Shoigu believes that "military threats from the West are growing near Russia's borders."
Therefore, Russia will "actively improve the combat composition of [its] troops", and, by the end of the year, will form 12 military units and divisions in the Western Military District.
