Armed columns of the Russian Volunteer Corps (RDK) plan to march on Moscow when Russia reaches a pre-revolutionary state of maximum political and social turbulence, according to Deniss Kapustins, founder of the armed unit. Kapustins outlined the group’s long-term operational strategy during an interview on the YouTube channel “Militarnyi,” as reported by “Dialog.ua.”
Assessing the Trigger for an Advance on Moscow
According to Kapustins, the timing of the armed unit’s movement toward the Russian capital depends directly on the outcome of the war in Ukraine. The founder of the Russian Volunteer Corps (RDK) stated that the conflict will ultimately lead Russia toward a political, social, and economic catastrophe.
Once the political and social turbulence reaches its peak, the armed columns intend to execute their march, based on the assessment provided in the “Dialog.ua” report of the “Militarnyi” interview.

Lessons from the Wagner Mutiny
To support his assessment of how Russian security forces might react, Kapustins pointed to the armed mutiny led by Yevgeny Prigozhin. According to the “Militarnyi” interview, Kapustins asserted that regular Russian soldiers will not mount a sustained defense against advancing internal opposition forces.
However, Kapustins contrasted his unit’s stated objectives with the actions taken during the Wagner uprising. He claimed that unlike Prigozhin’s forces, which halted their advance roughly 200 kilometers outside the Moscow Ring Road, the Russian Volunteer Corps (RDK) does not intend to stop short of its destination when the political crisis matures.
