Mount Veracrypt volume without having adminstrative privileges

when I try to mount a volume in veracrypt with an non administrative user, veracrypt asks me for:
Administrator privileges required.



So how can I mount veracrypt volumes with an user having no administrative privileges?



The solution from this question How can user mount an encrypted file container in VeraCrypt? seems to lead to privilege escalation (according to https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/178610/is-it-secure-to-mount-veracrypt-without-sudo-password-in-this-way). So is there a clean way to do this? How do other "non-privileged" users run veracrypt?



Thanks for your help

          Create a script that mounts a specific device and add it to sudoers.
          A file container has the problem that it may be replaced by a modified version if it is not read only.



          More infos see:
          https://www.veracrypt.fr/en/Command%20Line%20Usage.html



          Use the ID for partitions:
          /v ID:53B9.....1EDCA
