Also a breach of international refugee law (being a type of refoulement) but of course what’s a violation of international law or two if it’s plucky wholesome Ukraine doing it?
Ukraine is in a tough spot. Normally this situation would hasten your defeat and force you to negotiate a peace (and I’m not sure they’ll get their refugees back to conscript). But the Zelensky regime can’t sign peace, NATO won’t allow it. They have to fight until NATO says stop, and they have no idea when that’ll come. Honestly we’ve been saying “to the last Ukrainian” for a while but it might even go beyond that, if you can imagine it. To the last parcel of Ukrainian land maybe. It’s not in their hands at all.
I can only hope Zelensky and his entire cabinet get what they rightfully deserve at the end of this instead of fucking off to Hawaii where they get to live cozy lives paid by the CIA.
