      People think of Putin as strong, but strong people don't fear opposition, Putin is so petrified of it that he uses intimidation, trumped up charges and murder to prevent it, the cowardly little shit.

      The more I am seeing of the Ukrainian people, the more I'm impressed by them. Feeding and comforting enemy soldiers, helping them call home, treating them with respect and providing information to their families - all whilst vehemently defending their homeland, showing outstanding intellect & pragmatism (with plans like this, up & running in a matter of days, despite being at war), and even managing to show humour in the darkest of times. These people are absolutely incredible!
      They must be helped, supported, and protected by any and every country that values humanity, because these Ukrainians exemplify it.

As are the Ukrainian soldiers that will keep her safe so that she can do her part to end the war. But fighting does require some motivation to keep going.

      alot of the men who volunteered to be there are dead now anyway, most of the crack troops used at the very start of the conflict have been depleted or wiped out, when most of the men who were doing the real fighting and raping of your country are gone, and all thats left is pitiful forced, untrained and confused fearful troops, you see frontline units accepting and retrieving more and more prisoners, hopefully that will continue to trend upward as the new mobilization of unwilling conscripts goes in full force.
      A good precedent for this would be the lighting invasion of Iraq, the US took hundreds of thousands of POW's, and wiped out anything that fought or fled thanks to the fact so many of the Iraqi forces were unwilling to put up any kind of stiff resistance, most being conscripts with no real objective or belief in their leaders and system, and this is why modern oligarchic/Autocracies invetibly fail

The people of Ukraine didn't deserve this war and the people of Russia were, to me, duped into fighting by a power hungry mad man that will eventually be held accountable for this own Nazi type actions. When there is a conflict, the leaders should be the ones to fight and die, not the people. You will see that there will be no more conflicts.

      @pavelhajko9354 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Lets start with reminder of history for those who say that analogy to
      Hitler and WW2 is wrong. Why then it looks like Putin's playbook?:
      Remember year of 1938 and how Hitler grabbed Sudetenland and how it
      ultimately led to WW2. When Adolf Hitler came to power, he wanted to
      unite all Germans into one nation. In September 1938 he turned his
      attention to the three million Germans living in part of
      Czechoslovakia called the Sudetenland. Sudeten Germans began protests
      and provoked violence from the Czech police. Hitler claimed that 300
      Sudeten Germans had been killed. This was not actually the case, but
      Hitler used it as an excuse to place German troops along the Czech
      border. Soon afterwards, these border territories were annexed from
      Czechoslovakia, and some time after that, Hitler seized whole country.
      Czechoslovakia ceased to exists and Protektorat Böhmen und Mähren was
      formed. All military assets of Czechoslovakia and all its industrial
      power bolstered nazi war machine. Without these assets, attacking
      Poland, France, let alone Soviet Union would be unthinkable. "Hitler
      stressed the military importance of occupation, noting that by
      occupying Czechoslovakia, Germany gained 2,175 field cannons, 469
      tanks, 500 anti-aircraft artillery pieces, 43,000 machine guns,
      1,090,000 military rifles, 114,000 pistols, about a billion rounds of
      ammunition and three million anti-aircraft shells. This amount of
      weaponry would be sufficient to arm about half of the then Wehrmacht."
      The rest is history. Never negotiate with terrorists in Kremlin.
      Putin's kleptocracy is out of money. Just like Hitler before war. He
      stole from jews, killing them openly since Nuremberg Laws enacted in
      Nazi Germany in 1935. His economy was centralised and de facto
      nationalized. He was near bankrupcy and to conquer other states and
      plunder and steal was for him a must. And Putin is in EXACTLY the same
      situation. Russian economy is failing and he is a rabid dog. You can't
      negotiate or argue with rabid dog. You really think that after Putin prevails in Ukraine he will crawl back to his bankrupt Mordor and behave, suddenly being a good boy?
      There are only two ways how to get out of this. Either there must be
      established supremacy on the Ukrainian side (supported by the West's
      uncompromising determination). Only other solution is that Putin must
      be removed by someone from his inner circle. Make it look like hearth
      attack or something, so as not to lose the face. Mighty leader
      overwhelmed by a sudden illness. There, war is over. Wishful thinking perhaps?
      I don't know.
      Western world sabotages its own interests and put itself in harms way by its own passivity. We have a moral obligation to face evil before evil prevails. Still, us and those few thousand unbroken people in Russian federation are obliged to say ENOUGH to Putin's henchmen and his kleptocracy. Free world should also expel Russian diplomats. Putin is LIAR and faker, who rules trough fear. Atomics? Mutual assured destruction (MAD) is a doctrine of military strategy and national security policy in which a full-scale use of nuclear weapons by two or more opposing sides would cause the complete annihilation of both the attacker and the defender. Putin can not launch them by himself, he needs both Shoygu and Gerasimov to do so and they are not mad.
      Western forces not only can but should do help Ukraine NOW if Ukraine say so.
      It is dire need of actual power projection in Ukraine. For God sake give them at least fuel, long range sams, ciws, iron dome, bring in anything, airdrop food and supplies. It is 1939 again and world is again BLIND.
      Unless Russia is defeated in Ukraine NOW, before Kyiv, Kharkov, Odessa
      and other cities are razed to the ground by thermobaric weapons, if
      the west will not confront Putler now, then soon enough will world
      watch how Putin invades Moldova, Georgia and finally, Baltic states -
      NATO members. And then NATO will again do nothing serious for the same
      fear of russian nuclear weapons. Risk WW3 for such a little state?
      Pff. Maybe it is only civil war, better not meddle in it. That day
      will be the end of NATO as failed phony alliance. Dear NATO, you talk the talk, but do you walk the walk? I doub it. But what matters is that tsar Putin doubts that. To break NATO and
      west by lies is long term target of Kremlin.
      Mark my words. Putin's
      kleptocracy, aka Russian federation is now the same that once was
      Hiltler's nazi Third reich. World will find out that to be true,
      sooner or later. History repeats itself. I wish there were influential
      politicians who could see things clearly. Those who would not be
      frightened, weak, shaky and corrupt through money from the oligarchs
      of East and West alike. Those who had the determination of real
      leaders capable of taking responsibility. Maybe they still exist
      somewhere and maybe their voice will get to the right ears before is
      too late, I still believe it, I have to.
      Russian federation MUST IMMEDIATELY feel the consequences of their barbaric war, there must be swift retribution, that is the only way. Recent reckless attacks on nuclear energy plants and blatant cynical violations of the Geneva Conventions show us clearly, that Putin's Russia is terrorist state, unpredictable, lying, deceptive and dangerous to humankind. Western politician should meet Putin, Lavrov, Peskov and other henchmen of bloody dictator and war criminal only before International Criminal Court in The Hague. Being in one room with these people must be unbearable to decent moral man and should be considered as gravely insult to all murdered women and children of Ukraine.
      Putin is and always has been killer (rememeber Litvinenko,
      Politkovskaya, Nemcov and many others), and now is already known his
      recent stunt - he send "Wagner group" neo-nazi murderers and assassins
      to Kyiv to kill Zelenskyy, his cabinet members, and even their
      families. I reckon he is trully mentally ill.
      After all "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts
      absolutely" as Lord Acton said already in 19th century. Quite accurate
      description of our tsar Putin the Bloody .
      "Let not any one pacify his conscience by the delusion that he can do
      no harm if he takes no part, and forms no opinion. Bad men need
      nothing more to compass their ends, than that good men should look on
      and do nothing. He is not a good man who, without a protest, allows
      wrong to be committed in his name, and with the means which he helps
      to supply, because he will not trouble himself to use his mind on the
      subject." - John Stuart Mill, 1867
      "Appeasement policy, the policy of appeasing Hitler and Mussolini,
      operating jointly at that time, during 1937 and 1938 by continuous
      concessions granted in the hope of reaching a point of saturation when
      the dictators would be willing to accede to international
      collaboration. ... It came to an end when Hitler seized Czechoslovakia
      on March 15, 1939, in defiance of his promises given at Munich, and
      Prime Minister Chamberlain, who had championed appeasement before,
      decided on a policy of resistance to further German aggression."
      - Walter Theimer (ed.), The Penguin Political Dictionary, 1939
      Putin understands only power and determination. Everything else is sign of weakness for him. Do everything what is in your power to drive Putin's kleptocracy to end. Talk to your representatives. God bless you.
      (Feel free to widely share and publish all above, I just want to wake
      up conscience in all free people who still thinks that ongoing war in
      Europe is just a minor inconvenience. Just spread the word. Thank you.)

All media say that there is only “the special operation of demilitarisation and denazification”. They lie to Russians that they don’t shoot peaceful cities, that Ukrainian “nationalists” shoot their own people and cover themselves behind their backs. They lie that they rescue Ukrainians from nazis. That was what they said to Russian soldiers too. The fact is that no one soul in Russia can hate Ukrainians (maybe only the brainless can but they are in a big less), they think that it’s “their people” - not strangers or enemies.

Imagine your child is killed in action, you get no death notice, and your country's leader lies about everything on TV, especially the casualty count. That translates to your child's life being worthless to Russia. Not surprising since they don't care about their Ukrainian cousins!

They contact the Red Cross, who keep databases of who's asked and who's been entered into the system. It's the first choice. Calling your own Defense Department isn't likely to get you anywhere. They'll tell you to call the Red Cross. I can practically guarantee the volunteers at the Ukrainian hotline type everything into a Red Cross database. They're not the foe, they're noncombatant civilian volunteers, not much different from the actual Red Cross. If the Ukrainian government is financing them, that's just fine with me.

      Can't provide evidence but if I had not heard from some of my family in 2 weeks and they said they were about to drive in a tank into Ukraine with a russian flag on their shirt I might want to try anything to get information. There is also the chance the lady calling about her brother is in the donbass region and has no idea her brother is about to try to invade Kiev to overthrow a government.

    This is both Heartbreaking, and Inspiring.

    My heart goes out to all those seeking answers about their loved ones during these dark times, no matter their Nationality, Culture or Religion. And all my best well wishes to Ukraine 🇺🇦. Stay strong over there, you can win this, this proud Brit 🇬🇧 believes in you.

      @@alenrodriguez3112 what labs? That’s Russian propaganda, you realise that, USA has categorically denied that the labs exist, and Russia has turned over no substantial evidence for their existence, all their trying to do is steal the moral high ground, something they never had, nor SHOULD ever have.
      As to corruption, that’s true of any government, Russia more so than anyone else, they are literally run by Mafia leaders, and have been since the collapse of the Soviet Union. Russia’s whole deal about corruption in Ukraine was that the candidate for president THEY were backing, like you know, with funding, lost to a pro-west democratic candidate. Now I haven’t seen evidence that Pro-west candidate was backed by the west, the same way the Russian candidate was, but if that is the case, then I say turn about is fair play. If the Russians were backing a Pro-Russian candidate, why should the west not back a Pro-west candidate.
      In response to all this, Putin threw a hissy fit, and annexed Crimea, showing not only that he intended harm on Ukraine, but also removing a good chunk of pro-Russian voters, from Ukraine’s democratic system. Looking at this, is it any surprise that this pushed Ukraine FURTHER into the west’s arms, no of course not, Russia had basically just hit them for not electing the candidate that Russia wanted in charge (which by the way, is basically the definition of corruption, so that kinda blows you argument out the water there). And then Russia DEMANDED, not asked, DEMANDED, that Ukraine never join NATO.
      Here’s a little advice, doesn’t matter how powerful your country is (and yes I’m aware USA is guilty of this too, and they also need to short their game out, but just because they’ve done it in the past, doesn’t give Russia the excuse to do it to Ukraine), you do NOT have the right, to dictate the policy of another country. Why do you think Finland has suddenly changed its neutrality stance, to joining NATO, because Russia, DEMANDED, that they would NEVER join NATO, just like they did with Ukraine, what kind of message does that send, especially after the Russians invaded Ukraine.
      I don’t know what facts your looking up my friend, but they are WRONG, Putin is the instigator of ALL of this, he declared war on a peaceful nation, which if he had just left well enough alone, likely would NEVER have joined NATO. Because of all his posturing and threats however, we have been led to THIS situation. For your sake, I will look up these supposed “labs”, but I doubt I’ll find anything except Russian propaganda. Do yourself a favour, and go find some REAL news on this conflict, not CNN, but independent news outlets, I think you’ll be very surprised.

      1. Lvov
      2. Dnipro
      The Americans will jump with glee. The Europeans would panic so much they will buy more arms from the Americans.
