Head of Ukraine’s national foreign intelligence service – “We have studied…the strengths and weaknesses of the enemy. We are aware of Russia’s long-term plans…at least until 2030.”
I have a friend in Kiev and they’re kidnapping people to send them to the frontline. Maybe you can take his place if you like Ukraine that much. It’s funny how jingoists who cheers for war are never the ones actually fighting it.
I hope they win is probably good. I hope they continue to fight might be out of touch. OP sounds fake though, who has a friend in Kyiv “Kiev” that repeats Russian propaganda narratives to them?
if you go on reddit to certain pro-russian combat footage subs dedicated to the war, you’ll see one or two new videos a week of Ukrainian men being kidnapped off of the streets and stuffed into a van
they really are taking people off the streets there. they’re low on manpower and the men remaining are all those that don’t want to die so they’ve been ignoring any draft summons. so the Ukrainian gov has been resorting to increasingly brutal measures.
i’m honestly just so glad i wasn’t born in post-soviet slavic country , lol. i swear the value of life there is not nearly what it is here. on the Russian side they’ll force thousands of men forwards into a meat grinder trying to win with pure brute force. if a soldier tries to go backwards, the Russians themselves will shoot you as a motivation for the others to go forwards. hundreds of thousands of men dead or maimed for what? a couple miles of land a day?
then on the Ukrainian side they’ll keep you defending some worthless piece of land forever as all the supply lines slowly close around you. once you’re cut off, you know you and the wounded with you are all gonna die. command promised reinforcements when they had no intention of sending reinforcements. to them , the political benefit of holding onto that land for just a little longer is worth more than the lives of real human beings. you are a soldier and you are expendable. (this also coincidentally makes it harder to get fresh recruitment because ukrainian men aren’t stupid and propaganda can only hide so many deaths)
i’ve seen confirmed cases of both sides killing POWs. men walking out of a trench with their hands up surrendering just to get mowed down anyways. men trying to surrender to drones only to get blown up anyways.
war is hell. it’s barbaric and highlights the absolute worst nature of humanity.
having said all that, yeah the commenter does seem like an astroturfer or at least a biased pro-russian poster if organic. but the statement with ukrainians being kidnapped, at least from what I’ve seen, is true. it has been happening at increasing frequencies
Uma delicia ;) But they were serving 7.62s to the russians for sure, there was a lot of combat footage coming from the Kreminna Forest where they were holding the line.

Fair point.
Oh wait, this is an astroturf post.
What should they have said, then? That they want Ukraine to lose and surrender? That they want the stalemate to continue indefinitely?

Since when is mandatory conscription “kidnapping”?
A friend’s father got kidnapped by the state here in sweden due to not showing up for draft… It does sound way worse with those words though
It’s what the troll center boss told them to say.
Right they should have peacefully be annexed to Soviet Union 2.0
I guess you would have gone with that
I seriously considered it, but they specifically said they don’t need buffoons.
You kidding? Last time latinoamericana tried to show support some crazy Ukrainian girls answered with monkey emojis. Bunch of racist neanderthals.
I heard of a bunch of Brazilians fighting in the international legion.
Serving sopa de macaco to the troops?
Uma delicia ;) But they were serving 7.62s to the russians for sure, there was a lot of combat footage coming from the Kreminna Forest where they were holding the line.
Best soup ever xd sadly, they don’t seem to serve them at the Brasilian restaurant in my city :(
