People running out of country in thousands, out of their homes in millions(only you local military commissar could give you summon). Some even end their lives with suicide after getting summon. On the other hand, there are thousands of idiots that going to military commissariats even without signed summon. My guess, real problems would start in Russia after Svatovo assault, where most of mobilized in October are going.
Nope. More likely someone who want to cause damage to organisation that defense bridge.
He has the same problem Putin has, they both got high on their own propaganda and started to believe their own lies themselves.
If I was a betting man, I'd wager that India's absentee vote has at least something to do with half of the Indian Air Force being comprised of Russian MiG-29s and Su-30s, among other reasons.
At the risk of being that guy, not really. It's an optimised fragmentation warhead that performs at a level comparable to similar cluster munitions. If it doesn't have sub-munitions, and it doesn't, then it's not a cluster munition.
I don't mean to offend but your signature "Russian warship, go **** yourself." kinda tells it all man. How come are you at this point still parading a proven lie put forth by the Ukrainian government at the very start of the conflict, a lie that I personally called right away before it even got exposed, it was just a pretty weak piece of propaganda to boost the war effort, it wasn't the only one either.
What lie? It’s a statement. Russian warship, go **** yourself. If by “tells it all” you mean that it’s obvious that I support Ukraine, then yes that’s true and a very good observation.
Because Ukraine was invaded by Russia and that is unacceptable. Why do you believe we should not help Ukraine?
Corrupt countries doesn’t have a right to exist? Or what’s the logic there exactly? War is fine as long as it doesn’t happen to countries where there’s no corruption? Nationalism is ugly, yes. Why is Ukrainian nationalism worse than in any other country and why does it mean we shouldn’t support Ukraine?
As far as I know they haven’t rejected any peace deal.
Newsflash: The war was started by Russia and will continue until Russia wants it to stop. You think we should abandon Ukraine and let Russia do whatever they want with the country, which isn’t going to be pretty. Some Russian units still believe they are there to fight Nazis so when they interrogate civilians about the whereabouts of these Nazis and the civilians have no idea what the **** they’re talking about the Russians think they are Nazis too and torture them before murdering them. A leader of the LPR stated on video that the war is about “changing the mind” of Ukrainians and that if they don’t change their mind (i.e. become more friendly towards Russia) they will exterminate them.
Why? What makes you think it would avoid a bloodshed and what makes you think Putin would be happy to keep Crimea and Donbas? What makes you think that he won’t invade Moldova, Georgia and Azerbaijan next if his war in Ukraine becomes a victory?
You can’t say it wouldn’t have happened either. In fact, it’s been reported that Putin rejected a peace deal that met his so called demands on the first day of the invasion.
How would that happen? Who do you believe would raise to power after Putin and why would he decide to return the land to Ukraine? What makes you think Ukraine would even exist at that point if we end the support?
That’s exactly why we have NATO. Nuclear weapons is a red line that will make it very difficult for NATO not to get involved and Putin knows this very well.
Would you say the same when your country is invaded by Russia?
That is part of the invasion. Negotiation peace with an aggressor has proven to be futile before.

Record is real, situation is real, only misunderstanding was that garrison wasn't killed.
Bunch of European countries raised its corruption level since than, while Ukraine clearly moving to lesser corruption. And Russia is one of the most corrupted counties in the world.
8 years fighting against occupation.
Putin also wants Kharkiv, Zaporozhye, Dnepr, Mikolayev, Sumy, Chernigov, Odessa, Krivoy Rog and Transdnistra. All those were stated as "russian" regions by russian officials.
Are you living in spring 2022? Because here, in October 2022, Russian forces are lossing territories for three months and only gain of territories Konashenkov reporting is Zaytsevo village (which they reporting third time, every month since August 2022). Mobilization would ruin already low moral and you could expect loss of Zaporozhye and Kherson by the end of the year. I am not sure about Donetsk, Lugansk and Crimea, more likely they would stay in pre24feb state for some time.

What level of corruption is acceptable before you would lend assistance to a sovereign nation that has been illegally invaded?
And what percentage of the armed forces and national government do far-right nationalists make up? I take it you live in a country with zero corruption and zero far-right/nationalist representation within your national government and/or supported by the electorate at large (hint: you don't).
You seem to be unaware that mediation was attempted, and Russia ignored it, repeatedly.
So you would simply accept Russia's illegal invasion, what would you then do when an emboldened Russia moved on to the next non-NATO country it still considers 'its own'?
Ukraine of 2015 is much different than Ukraine of 2022 with the biggest difference being that the current president isn't a Russian puppet like Viktor Yanukovych was. So yes, under the Azarov government, Ukraine was unbelievably corrupt, and while there are still undoubtedly problems in Ukraine, they aren't nearly as corrupt as they were 8 years ago.
The Soviet Union was powerful, Russia is just a husk of that with a bunch of outdated equipment and a ton of corruption. Yes, Russia has nuclear weapons, but considering they couldn't even properly maintain the tires on their trucks, I'm going to guess their nukes aren't exactly in the best condition. It's incredibly expensive to maintain nuclear weapons and requires a good number of people who know what the hell they are doing. The US spends roughly $60 billion annually maintaining our nuclear weapons.
