  1. Ukraine is 603,700 square kilometers. Russia currently controls 18% of Ukraine. If Russia can keep up this pace they will finish conquering Ukraine in 206 years. In reality, they are not producing tanks, aircraft, and artillery barrels quickly enough. Their population isn’t large enough to sustain their troop attrition rate for even 15 years. If Ukraine can wait them out, eventually they will run out of gas the same way so many army’s have trying to conquer other countries.

  2. info war z comment bots are unfortunately getting more sophisticated these days, not as painful obvious as it used to be. major problem for society if governments and media just allow this to be spammed with BS constantly

  3. The tragedy continues. Chief of staff General Milley urged Biden to pressure Ukraine to negotiate peace with Russia in September 2022 , after Ukraine ran Russians out of Kharkiv. It was a time that gave Zelensky leverage in negotiations. Biden told Zelensky to keep fighting. General Milley said a great opportunity for peace was wasted, but U.S. war hawks got their way. Milley was removed from Joint Chief of Staff a year later. Biden's war goes on.

  4. There is no such thing as Force mobilization in a state of war. They are allowed to kidnap you and send you to the frontline. It's legal… When your country is invaded, fighting the enemy is not optional.

  5. Estos periodistas se hacen los ignorantes, dicen que no pueden confirmar si hay reclutamientos forzados, que esperan que les digan los reclutadores?

  6. Ukrainians dying for Nato and President Biden's delusional aspirations of surrounding Russia with U.S./Nato bases including Russian Regime change. If Putin is removed, there is a large group of hardliners to replace him. The Biden refusal to negotiate on Nato expansion provoked the war, which was publically admitted by Jens Stoltenberg.

  7. Russia has the rights to owned Ukraine. How about does the US has the rights to owned Russia for Ukraine? This war will continue to finally to drags the US and NATO to get involve and ww3 is unavoidable.

  8. Draft/conscription has always been involuntary. It was in World War I and it was in World War II. if you were drafted you didn't then get to choose if you wanted to go or not.
    "Report to induction center 2-a in one week."
    "Nah, I'm good."
    "OK, never mind."
    I'm not sure I understand what the point here is.

  9. Thanks to the West the World is at war everywhere. Everywhere the West sets foot in turns to Chaos. Russia knows that so instead of sitting around waiting for the West to play its game Russia chose to fight and the West is now struggling to keep the war going which they indirectly started .
