It's Martial Law in all but name in the bordering regions as well, with vague-enough wording to do whatever they like.

Most likely so they can scoop up anyone fleeing the country and put them directly in the meat grinder.

Apparently some Ukrainians in occupied/annexed regions are escaping to the Baltic countries and Finland through western Russia (probably don't want to cross the frontline), I wonder if this has anything to do with the decision to restrict movements in the western regions.

In other news, suprising absolutely no one:

McCarthy: No 'blank check' for Ukraine if GOP wins majority
https://www.yahoo.com/news/mccarthy-no-blank-check-ukraine-201152336.html

quote:

WASHINGTON (AP) — House GOP leader Kevin McCarthy warned Tuesday that Republicans will not write a “blank check” for Ukraine if they win back the House majority, reflecting his party's growing skepticism about financial support for Kyiv as it battles Russia's invasion.

“I think people are gonna be sitting in a recession and they’re not going to write a blank check to Ukraine," McCarthy told Punchbowl News. “They just won’t do it. … It’s not a free blank check.”

The comments from McCarthy, who is in line to become speaker if Republicans win the House, raised fresh questions about the resiliency of America's support for Ukraine as a growing number of Republicans, particularly those aligned with Donald Trump's “America First” approach, question the need for federal spending abroad at a time of record-high inflation at home.

It would be so nice, but American voters care only that they can inflict suffering on ethnic and sexual minorities, so this rear end in a top hat will be Speaker in three months and the only thing the House will talk about is Hunter Biden. Ukraine will probably start losing American material support almost immediately. I’m confident McCarthy gets money from Russian sources, it’s the only reason for him to do this. The ranking Republican on Foreign Affairs pushed back against this a little, but not much.

Most of the material support for Ukraine is committed (e.g. lend lease, etc) by congress already and under Biden's control now. They'd have to override a veto to undo it. There might be a decrease in humanitarian support, but only after what's already been committed is expended. Mostly this is just playing both sides - we're supporting Ukraine so the hawks are happy, but grrrrr that Biden administration keeps sending your money to foreigners grrrrr, so they can rile up the isolationists / Qs.
