Thanks for the link. I thought I remembered that there was something off about the Azov battalion. I find it interesting that the OP’s article didn’t mention the groups Neo-Nazism at all. Don’t get me wrong, I support Ukraine in the war, but ignoring stuff like this also poses a risk.

“This shows clearly that Russia finds itself in a situation where violating agreements with Russia has become the norm,” Sergei Markov, a former Kremlin adviser, wrote on Telegram. “Because Russia does not respond. Out of humility or humanism. It needs to respond. Respond in such a way that will instill fear,” Markov said.

Lol remember when Putin tried to bully Turkey out of the grain deal? Yeah I’m putting my money on Erdogan over Putin

I don’t get it, didn’t they have an agreement that they won’t bring them home from Turkey until the end of the war ? Might be harder to negotiate prisoners freedom after this

Don’t look up Zelensky’s dubious policies or you’ll find yourself in a rabbit hole. Also you’ll labeled a putin puppet, a terrorist, a tankie, a blablabla.
