Current Affairs Ukraine

It's probably what they will do.

If I was in the age range of mobilisation I'd scram too. Sit it out until it sorts itself out either way.

When are the referendums supposed to be happening?

Not a dig at you, but would you really just leave everything behind and bail?

How many people do you think are able to do that?

If I was Russian and getting mobilised to go to Ukraine? Yes.

Give it a little time and either Putin will be out and it's safe to return or he won and I'd probably gamble on amnesty as they'll need their people back or just go fully for political asylum.

How many can do it? That's a very good question.

They could close borders, no? I believe that was what Ukraine done at the start of the war (for all males of certain age).

Go via a 3rd country like Armenia, Georgia

Any ideas on the specifics of this the document seems pretty vague?

My wife grew up in Poland and my in-laws love to tell the story of one of their friends who got out of compulsory military service. He spent the 24 hours prior to his medical examination smoking cigarettes and drinking coffee.

He ended up collapsing while trying to do his second push-up and was exempted from service ?

And that's how Jerzy Dudek passed his rs medical.

Hague got no power over big powers, they only get small countries.

If Russia lose, Putin and his most loyal followers will go out of the window (literally), good old fashioned defenestration

Just about every country in NATO and ROI have submitted the same. I think it gives the ICJ a mandate to begin investigations and create a criminal case against Russia for crimes of Genocide.

I think Ukraine created the original case and then article 63 under international law allows for a 3rd state to raise an intervention case ( basically a big international piley-on).

But Redstevon said it wasn't genocide?

Now I'm confused.

Nice of them to send the poor minorities from the arse end of Russia into the meat grinder first.

Now I'm confused.

The ICC opened a preliminary investigation against the UK in Afhganistan - their final report is errrm interesting. They also opened a case against the US for war crimes in Iraq - the US applied sanctions against the lead prosecutor.

By and large it's a toothless organisation unless you're an African country - think all but one successful prosecution has been from Africa

Think it's between the 23-26th of this month mate

In all seriousness @bluestevon , if you’re in Russia and have a family, you should do everything in your power to get the hell out of there. You seem like a decent guy, a bit brainwashed, but decent. Run!!

Why? My life and family is here, I'd rather trust my first hand experience of how life is here and has been for over 9 years and how society is and the people are over outside people's opinions about how they think it is here most of whom frankly have no understanding of the country.

Interesting to see the complete lsck of any real coverage of the attacks in Donetsk and surrounding areas on civilian areas today, there's a number of videos showing the aftermath - actually horrific as some victims are children, women and elderly people.

Guessing yet more false flag attacks ...
