And the rest are not draft eligible I guess..
A story from personal experience: most of my friends from Ukraine wanted the war to end from the very beginning. There was one exception though - a real patriot who considered Zelensky a hero and the best president we've ever had, "Slava Ukraini", "Russians are orcs", you know the type.
What on Earth could make such a patriot change his mind? Just like me he doesn't live in Ukraine, and about a year ago Zelensky started trying hard to forcefully return people from abroad to use as a cannon fodder (thankfully, he failed)... That made him change his opinion very fast :)
And every war supporter out there is the same.. The war is OK, as long as it's not me who is forbidden to leave the country and gets kidnapped off a street to be used as a cannon fodder.
There's no such thing as peace talks in this war. Russia wants it all, any Ukrainian who live in Ukraine will be forced into assimilation and I doubt they all want that. Your friends are maybe spineless cowards I don't know
Why? What on Earth could be a reason for doubting people would prefer to live rather than die?? It's literally written right here, in the article, from a western media outlet, that people don't want to fight and avoid it AT ALL COST, people would rather die trying to escape the country to the freedom than die for Zelensky's regime, and there are people on the frontlines just because Zelensky's murderous regime is forcing people to... And you are still "doubting"...
Yeah yeah yeah, I've heard that before... "If you don't want to fight for MY interests than YOU are a coward". Doesn't work on anyone with at least half a brain, sorry :)
