  • 💥 DISCLAIMER: the POW gave his clear consent for filming and publishing this footage. POWs are protected by the Geneva Convention and treated accordingly in Ukraine.
    Hryhoriev was born in Ukraine, in the Donetsk region. But when the Russian occupation came, he got mobilized to the war against Ukraine. According to his words, he escaped the front line three times but was then brought back. This time he has escaped the Russian army for sure: he surrendered to the Ukrainian defenders. In the video, Hryhoriev tells about horrible methods used in the occupation army, including death squads that stay behind the lines and kill any deserters. Lack of supplies and inhumane attitude almost made the man break mentally, and he surrendered to the Ukrainian army when possible. Hear what he intended to say in our video.

      2008 BAKU April 23 - The Russian Federation today is threatened less by radical Islamists than by “hundreds” of Satanist groups, totalitarian and extremist organizations that seek to “destroy” “centuries-old human values,” engage in “ritual murders,” and currently involve “several million” Russians, according to a senior researcher at the Russian Interior Ministry.

      Because they still want to live. I have imagined being in their shoes and going postal on my commanders, but I have to remind myself that the objective isn't to kill the bastard commanders, but to survive. Most of these soldiers still have their survival instinct so they try the legal route until they get desperate enough to either surrender or go postal like those guys at the Russian shooting range. Even retreat isn't easy. First you have to say good bye to any family you have, because you will never see them again as a free man. Next, you have to confront your battle buddies to see if they will surrender with you, let you go on your own, or turn you in. Once you figure that part out, you have to sprint through no mans land as Ukrainians and Russians shoot at you. Finally, you have to trust that all that propaganda you were fed about what the Ukrainians do to POWs is a lie.
      Russian commanders and officials should not only be held liable for crimes against humanity with regard to cities like Bucha, but also for their horrific treatment of their own soldiers.

      Thats also why the russians will never beat the ukrainians despite the huge difference in size, with regards to the amount of soldiers and weaponry.

      That's the thing about this, it's exactly how such brutal tyranny takes hold in the first place.
      The absolute cowardice and apathy currently endemic in that country that not only allows but actively supports and inflicts this horrific barbarity. How quickly and easily those that are armed will shoot each other at the slightest word, despite their incessant complaints of how unfair, inhumane, and terrible it is, yet they will not for a second lift a finger to protect each other against such tyranny. They will shoot you in a heartbeat instead of simply resisting much less shooting the actual tyrant.
      Resistance worked in Belarus, also tyrannical, yet all they had to do was threaten and not even actually shoot any "brass hat" and it has kept them out of Putler's invasion since.
      Can you imagine for half a second any such orders or insane brutality in any "Western" military ever?? Not in a heartbeat. Ruzzians are a sick, sick society...

Must feel great. No wonder he tried to escape, was it 3 times eventually?

    The people on the islands and the Rusians became good friends and where fed to stay alive by the people.
    When the war was over many returned home, but some remained because they fell in love with a Dutch girl😊.
    And by staying here they saved there lives, because the ones that went to Russia where executed upon arrival; as traitors!
    I still remember how shocked we where to find out what happened to our friends.
    We erected a monument for those heroes, who fought heroic for our freedom; and got killed by there own people as a "thank you" for it.
    Simply because they survived and where captured mostly severe wounded.
