Foreign fighters leave Ukraine due to witnessing atrocities

As NATO leaders father for a summit in Lithuania the war in Ukraine shows no sign of abating.
Thousands of foreign nationals have travelled to Ukraine to support the counter offensive against Russia - some are leaving after it became too much.

The atrocity they are referring to is the fact that both sides are murdering each other and leaving the dead on the battlefield . You have to remember the vast majority of those who volunteered to help the Ukrainians fight this war are not prior service or ex military . They are mostly civilians . Who have never seen what war really is before this experience. So to their minds it's an atrocity. To a more harden soldier who has seen previous wars it's just another thing that happens. Because those who have seen wars are use to the fighting and seeing the results of fighting. And are capable of justifying the situation. Civilian volunteers with no military experience are not use to the sights , sounds and smalls of warfare. It's really that simple. And trench warfare is especially brutal because much of it is done within close quarters. What has been going on in Ukraine has been trench warfare which is exactly what WW1 was only this time with more advanced weapons being used .

I feel sorry for their relatives who have no say. These foreign fighters signed up for this voluntarily - either for money or because they enjoy killing people. It was obvious from day one even before 2014 that it was Ukrainian nationalists (Nazis) that were the bad guys, they worshiped real Nazi collaborators of WWII, SS etc. And it was them who started the armed conflict in 2014, killing thousands of people and hundreds of kids in Donbass. What is happening now in Ukraine is similar to 1944 in Germany, when the war came back home to Germany proper.

That these guys stuck it out for *longer* than a year speaks volumes of their character, and you trying to take that from them with your snide comment sitting on your toilet speaks volumes of yours.

[@Hiawathado]

@@onerimeuse wow. These banch of heroes who's "volumes of their characters I am taking with my snide comment from my warm toilet"? Great! First of all these are not heroes. These are hired workers, who are getting paid to kill other ppl. Can you prove it or get some prove that they killed only militair from other side? If it's difficult for you to figure out than I try to tell it more simple for you. These are killers. Who gets paid to do so. They got chance to turn around and go home. Funny thing, they always had a chance to go home but they made their choice exactly when it got hot there. When Pakistani "hired workers" went to Afghanistan to fight for freedom of Afghanistan they were called terrorists. When some Englishmen is fighting for freedom of Ukraine he is a hero. Do you also see the difference? Thanks to these hired ppl this war began. And not to forget about heroes who are paying them. We need more peace Nobel prices to award every one of them.

[@hmgrraarrpffrzz9763]

@@brianbennett3435 I think what many people forget who say "Zelensky should make peace" is that the suffering doesn't end when a peace deal is signed. Any Ukrainian in the areas occupied by Russia will suffer greatly, and Russia will make sure that they can soon conquer the rest of Ukraine. That is why one of Russias demands for a peace deal is that Ukraine can join neither NATO nor EU and has only a tiny army in future: so that Russia can just attack again once it rebuilt its army. Ukraine will cease to exist unless it can join NATO because Russia will attack it again. And any chance of getting the occupied regions back are gone once you give Russia a couple of years to build up defenses. And once Russia has conquered the rest of Ukraine, the real suffering of Ukrainians will begin. Because if you give Russians power over Ukrainians you end up with fckd up crimes like the Holodomor. Not to mention that as soon as Russia conquered Ukraine and spent some time licking its wounds it will go for either Georgia or Moldova next. So the suffering doesn't end. It continues for Ukraine, and spreads to the next country. Asking Ukraine to just surrender is like asking a woman, who is attacked by some drunk rapist, to just follow him home and let him chain her up in the basement and abuse her for decades to come, and as you can't see that abuse you pretend there is no problem.

Ukraine are murdering Russian artillery systematically. Even Russian officers have publicly expressed their concern over it. As for Ukrainians being slaughtered, they have always tried to minimise casualties and they are doing it quite well. Legit sources from within the Ukrainian military say that their casualty rate has not increased greatly with this offensive and Russian casualty rates are still high. They are quite confident that they are wearing down Russians to the point where they will be able to make major breakthroughs in a month or so. Without artillery the Russians are unable to perform and that point will eventually arrive. We always get horror stories from people like Macgregor and Ritter about Ukrainians being slaughtered and how the whole front is about to cave when the Russians are under stress.

Around that if we include volunteers, and they did not move to any next steps of mobilization so far yet, even more to say they expelled thousands of wagner fighters that did not wanted to jain regular army to belarus, they do not seem like they need more men, they seem to be pretty calm about it, while you can see hundreds of videos of forcefully mobilized people in Ukraine, and it is only accelerating, in autumn of last year zelensky bragged about milion men army ukraine created, yet they need more and more, i will leave calculations to you.

You are talking nonsense but that's my opinion.

They have various weapons and furthermore, they can operate with equal success any systems: Soviet, NATO, whatever. And they are looking at their losses philosophically. Everything is aimed at the highest goal as it was for us during the Great Patriotic War. But more technologically and precisely".

@stevesandgroper3241 the very fact that you think Prigozhin is the go to guy for your analysis is simply class misleading. Wagner is nothing without Putin and the Russian government.
