https://www.theguardian.com/world/article/2024/may/04/i-love-my-country-but-i-cant-kill-ukrainian-men-evading-conscription ‘I love my country, but I can’t kill’: Ukrainian men evading conscription quote:....More than two years into Vladimir Putin’s full-scale invasion, Ukraine’s armed forces are short of soldiers. Russian troops in February captured the city of Avdiivka and in recent weeks they have been advancing further in the east of the country, besieging the town of Chasiv Yar. Ukrainian commanders acknowledge Moscow has more troops, but say the decisive factor is its superior artillery, as well as war planes, used to pound defences.

Homeless Friend posted:many people say "nobody suffered consequences for being wrong on iraq" but they don't properly internalize the principle that nobody suffers consequences for being wrong, ever. This is how you still get people actually trusting ISW and all these yahoo outfits lol. Just mountains of wrong garbage that nobody cares to disprove, or even return to for a second look. you can be wrong all the time. no one gives a poo poo. truly the dumbest thing people online and on social media have internalized that being right matters or is important

Bondholders to Push Ukraine to Resume Debt Payments After Hiatusquote:Ukraine’s lenders said Kyiv could wait to pay them back after Russian troops stormed into the country two years ago. Now, their patience is starting to run out. The vultures are descending.

I interpret this as the western capitalists finally accepting that the end is coming. They want to extract what they can from Ukraine before the Kiev regime finally collapses and the 1991 borders that we call Ukraine are fully subsumed within the Russian sphere of influence. This may not happen in 2024 or even 2025, but at this point it is an inevitable outcome. There is nothing the West can do (short of nuclear annihilation) to reverse this outcome.

Like, I was expecting there to be baying mobs at the mere prospect of such a thing being even proposed. I do get the vibe that it's more limited to twitter mobs at this point as liberals can't even conceive of anything more than bitching on the internet about the dumbest possible things and everyone else has tuned out or moved on

Is there any updated map of where Ukrainian refugees went to between the EU and Russia? Though I guess that's not trivial since Russia would just hand you a Russian passport if you're from a bunch of eastern oblasts?

Also, was looking up what the OHCHR was saying about civilain casualties and apparently they lost interest in October? Last update I could find:quote:Ukraine: civilian casualty update 24 September 2023 | OHCHR]Total civilian casualties and So you have most confirmed civilian casualties in the early days when there was a lot of movement, but also 2023 wasn't as bad in terms of this number compared to 2014. Certainly possible that there are systematic errors here, but still, hadn't realized how bad 2014 was.

you might not like it but this is what peak genocide looks like also, it paints a super bleak picture for ukrainian side, where their side of the frontline is completely filed in, while they're somewhat contesting luhansk and doneck at best

So the linked figure for Ukrainian refugees in Russia is about 1.3 million. No explanation about whether this includes people from the officially annexed republics that Russia would presumably count as Russians now.

genericnick posted:So the linked figure for Ukrainian refugees in Russia is about 1.3 million. No explanation about whether this includes people from the officially annexed republics that Russia would presumably count as Russians now. I remember at least some Ukrainians from other parts of Ukraine were eligible such as Kharkov. Anyway, La Republica put out a story that the US through unofficial channels drew 2 red lines: no attacks on Moldova and NATO territory and no offensive across the Belarusian border. La Republica is a pretty big outlet (2nd biggest paper in Italy) so they probably aren’t just making things up. As for speculation, it would at least not contradict any build up of forces around Kharkov and Sumy (who knows what will actually happen up there). However, it does present a tricky issue since if the Ukrainians ever collapsed east of the Dnieper, going across from Belarus would be pretty much the only way to end the war. It would be quite bluff if NATO threatened WW3 as long as the regime in Kiev would stay intact.

No explanation about whether this includes people from the officially annexed republics that Russia would presumably count as Russians now. UNHCR report from Feb 2023 referenced a Russian source (EMERCOM) which put the number of Ukrainian refugees that fled to Russia at 2,852,395 as of 04 OCT 2022. The same UNHCR report says 1.46m as of "mid 2022". As you say, it can be hard to pin down in the case of dual citizenship or change of citizenship.
