This may be the case where it is legal, but the law is not followed because of the political consequences of doing do.

Russia has a unique hybrid military system where 70% of its soldiers are volunteer contract (kontraktniki) and 30% of soldiers are conscripts (prizivniki).
By law, conscripts and reservists can't be used outside of Russia unless war is declared.
This puts Russia at a significant disadvantage in forces because they can legally only use contract forces in Russia.
So technically, Ukraine can field a larger Army than Russia although Ukraine is a smaller country.
