I saw several videos throughout this conflict where citizens spoke about being afraid of Ukraines military and careful treatment by Russian Military. Unfortunately it’s tough to believe Ukraine reports because there’s so much being spilled that isn’t true.
Another one to raise your blood pressure.
I believe the opposite of what the US government says. I have a pretty good track record of being correct this way.
Yep!
And yet - the fact is that the vast majority of Ukrainian refugees, mostly from eastern Ukraine, fled WEST, not east, to their own army, though Ukraine, and are now sheltering in Ukraine or countries friendly to Ukraine. We have thousands of them even in Spain.
I suspect those that Russia has under its power are, in the main, those that were overtaken by events and could not flee west.
How about using people as human shields. Parking military equipment in Hospital parking garages.
Lotta people have succumbed to the brainwashing since the Nazi takeover in 2014, those would be the ones fleeing westward if there actually are any such.
Well, even the extremely non-globalist Poles and Hungarians are officially reporting large numbers, in the hundreds of thousands in Hungary and in the case of Poland in the millions.
Spain has @50,000 at this point I think.
So, you regard the U.N. as being more honest and reliable?!
Regards,
Refugees generally flee away from the fighting, not through it.
Bump
A lot of refugees were overrun by the surprise advance of Russian forces, especially in the South, around Kharkiv, north of Kiev, in the areas around Chernigov and Sumy, etc. These people generally crossed the lines, as they werent really lines at the time. All those videos of civilians crossing the Irpin river for instance, in Feb - early March.
Millions of Ukrainians have emigrated to the west over the last three decades, or have otherwise worked abroad. Do you think they have brainwashed the folks at home? I havent heard of any great desire for these people to go to Russia.
I think that so many were living in the EU these last three decades is the prime motivator for joining the EU. That denial of the will of the people is yet another layer of evil Russia wants to impose on Ukraine.
Same here, and I never side with Soros.
To those who have been following the Snake Island saga...

The RF Armed Forces are preparing to resolve the issue once and for all.

🇬🇧🇺🇦And here the Ukrainian side raised a panic in connection with the start of the operation in the north-west of the Black Sea.
At least 6 ships and 2 submarines of the ship grouping of the Russian fleet are in readiness for launching missile strikes, the Operational Command “South” reports.
They are equipped with more than 50 cruise missiles.
Nazi takeover?
Nazi according to Putin and your statement is anyone who doesn’t want to be assimilated into Russia
Whew. The UN will get involved. What a relief. After they have done so well in Africa...
They have been using up naval cruise missiles because they seem to be running low on the land attack versions. Ideally the naval ones should be held in reserve for naval threats. But if they are reduced to this, then there it is.
“Many claim the only decent treatment they’ve seen in the picture was from Russian soldiers.”
NOT POSSIBLE. The entire Media, plus 17 Intelligence Agencies have been perfectly clear that the only war crimes being committed here are by the Russians.
We, at FR, know full-well that those entities would NEVER lie to us. Otherwise we’d be suspicious of what they say regarding Hunter Biden, Election Fraud, and Vaccines. But we know they’re being perfectly truthful with us on that, so there’s NO REASON to suspect they may be lying to us regarding Ukraine.
