Just to add some perspective for people that are not from Ukraine: we have 120 000 policemen, but most of them (if not all) are not being drafted due to their position and ties, as well as bribes. People that have salary of 40k hryvnas (~1000$ which is a lot for Ukraine) won't get drafted as well, because they can just pay up to some drafter (around 2000$ from what I've heard). While improving Ukraine is still a highly corrupted country and this is an issue that was ongoing from 1991.
Brah, I do have a salary of more than 40k and I can't escape draft. All I can do is sit in my place and don't go outside. You need much more to bribe someone.
Forcing men to do their traditional role is the same spirit as forcing women into their traditional role
Wow look an feminist at war
This is a common problem for Ukrainians abroad as well - no answer to the phone or email, can't show up without appointment, never available time for appointment.
Ukraine has been doing wonders on the battlefield, given the limitations of manpower. They will overcome this, 100%.
No they won't. Unfortunately lack of manpower is Ukraine's Achilles heel. The Russians know it and will exploit it. I wish it it wasn't.
I mean Ukraine is on the defensive, they've been smashing the russians at a 10:1, 20:1 ratio.
Ukraine has fewer troops, but that's not an issue when for every Ukranian, 20 russians fall.
It varies of course, it depends on what is happening on the battlfield, sometimes it's 5:1 sometimes 20:1 - but I don't think it's propaganda, Zelensky and the Ukranian officials have been consistent on this.
Even Zelenskyy is humble enough to not sell this bs of 20:1 jfl
Tons and tons of Ukrainians did volunteer for the first year or even year and a half of the war. The issue is every Ukrainian who wanted (and had the physical capability) to volunteer already has done so and is either on the front line, on rotation, wounded or dead.
Hang in there ukraine 🇺🇦
Rope is tightening
I hope that when this war is all said and done, that those who stayed to fight get lifelong care and support to help overcome the trauma that they've endured.
Ufff govs love used soldiers
One way or another, they're going to have to fight. They can either do it as free men, or they can do it as Russian slaves.
And those who have fled to western countries will get drafted by them when we inevitably get completely involved.
can he says the same about Syrian ?
Wawaviva
Redditors now accept that khohols lost 100000 soldiers in 2022 ? I been told that this is fake in 2022.
Time for mercenaries. Is black water still in business? I know the USA is thinking about how to get mercs into the flight.
They were in Ukraine for couple of months then decided they prefer warmer climate
But my fav comment is
they should lose their citizenship if they don't want to serve !
They don't allow them to renounce citizenship and leave…
And to not end on negative note

Sorry pal but my English is better than yours. I finished Oxford business English classes at university.
Bro any moment khohols launch spring counteroffensive Russian will run
Is it in single front ? No strategic advantage ? Khohols won zero battles in almost 2 years = Khohols will win tomorrow
Never forget babe. Russia was 50 km away from pokrovsk at start of this year and now 16 km

Repeating yourself doesn't make it true.
What is the strategic advantage of holding any of those towns?

I don't understand how you are this r-slurred. Russia will win. This is embarrassing for Russia. It will be a very embarrassing victory for Russia. This war should have been wrapped up in weeks, Kiev should have fallen in the opening days. Russia's poor performance has been eye opening for the world.

This is embarrassing for the west, so much talk about being strong united and destroying Russia with all the sanctions pumping more than 600 billion buxx (3,5 times more than Soviet lent lease in today money)
I am sure the rest of the world will look at it and think oh no west put so much effort to stop Russia, what an embarrassing moment for Putin

Sorry, in what part of the world is Russia's invasion popular again? Why would western leaders not want to make a big show of not leaving Ukraine out to dry? Just because the war is a forgone conclusion doesn't mean it isn't in America and Europe's best interest to drive up Russia's price for Ukrainian land. The only big misstep has been the sanctions that are just serving to revitalize Russian manufacturing.

BRICS+ ignored Zelenskyy this year, Niger asked Russian to help kick frogs and burgers, other African countries. Even South Korea ain't rushing helping Ukraine.
And most important Israel trades with Russia
Redditors were crying today that Indian joining Russian army
West at begging tried to sell bs about whole world is with Ukraine
From this to
This
It was western idea turning this regional conflict into battle of world order and Putin played a long so it became global south vs west.
Biden didn't mentioned Ukraine since Trump assassination since he understands Ukraine ain't popular. People are sick of hearing every time how Ukraine gets billions. It's only Trump who shits on Ukraine now.
Giving motivation to Russia was very good interest to the west you even pointed it later
I bet now Iran has a nuke since Russia has nothing to lose, Russia is openly fighting against western interest now and shits on whole western rule based world because west thought since khohols were more brain dead than expecting that khohols would win against Russia. They even lied to them self thinking Ukraine Kharkiv success was real and not Russian didn't expected khohols weren't this insane to launch offensive. Then they expected same to happen during spring counteroffensive
Today local khohols saying they Russian because locals have negative views on khohols.

You think the Russians would violate nuclear proliferation agreements? For a diplomatic tête? Wow you really are that r-slurred.
You are right about one thing though- the west isn't all that interested in Ukraine, and Russia is very interested. It's the tricky thing about waging a proxy war, push too far and Russia's leadership could do something actually rash. There's a reason Western military hardware sent to Ukraine has so many strings attached.
I'm curious though, in what undeveloped backwater do you live trust you could be under the impression that Russia's invasion has widespread support outside of Russia?
