    In addition to conventional call-ups, conscription teams patrol public areas or stop cars on highways to draft eligible men into the army. Dozens of men have died and hundreds were caught when trying to illegally cross the border. Other are already abroad. Some don’t leave their apartments for weeks to dodge the draft.

    And some people will read that, and think “oh no, we gotta send Zelensky more money and support his murderous regime even harder so that he can catch and kidnap and send all of them to the meatgrinder”…

    And those same people claim to have the moral highground.

        Actually, it seems that it’s official now, Zelensky has confirmed it… :(

        “If they will cut [aid], I think we will lose. Of course, anyway, we will stay and we will fight.”

        So even if the defeat will be obvious, he will continue exterminating us till nobody is left…

        Nah, I’m sure it’s just Russian propaganda, Zelensky is a good guy and he would never sacrifice hundreds of thousands of lives for shits and giggles
