What could possibly go wrong with that. I heard the Russians have been very trustworthy in the recent past.

See, it was all just a misunderstanding. Just travel into the country that’s been bombing your country for over a year and show up at the lost and found office.

So they have no shame to admit they have committed war crimes. And as a parent I would be sceptical if I am safe collecting the children.

There is also many complications when citizens of a country they are at war with enter the other country. The most reasonable thing to do would be to bring the kids near the border where they would be collected by officials or an organization which makes sure the kids find a safe way home.

Parents will do almost anything in order to be able to be with their children again, no matter how unsafe. That’s one of the reasons this is so messed up.

At what point do we start to discuss how evil the Russian regime is? I mean, this is feeling like we are approaching the lines in the sand that we drew after WWII, if we haven’t already blown past them.

I have no desire to lose more lives, but this is evil. How can any country support Russia in this?
