A lot of conscripts were forced into signing up as contract solders. This enabled the military to send them to Ukraine to fight which they 'legally' could not do with conscripts.

Obvs Brian! I'm trying to cut you some slack here, don't ruin this man...:rolleyes: Really appreciate your effort but it would seem I’m very much in a minority, believe it or not I’m not pro Russia at all it’s just having been told things from a very trusted source that all is not quite as we...

Been waiting for this moment. I was speaking with a client farmer this morning saying at some stage the UN security council will have ot face the issue of the world needing the grain. And providing a safe passage to Odessa. About to get interesting.
Yes this is the dangerous bit
Well for the rest of the world not the Ukrainians.
Reading tff it would seem so

I definitely think this is the way the west should go. It's about time we called Putin's bluff, tell him we are coming into Odessa with UN sanctioned bulk carriers to load grain for the third world and if he intervenes we will send what's left of his navy to join the rest of it. The Black sea is not his personal pond.Lithuania wants naval coalition to lift Russia’s blockade of Ukraine’s grain

Not a chance I'm afraid, maybe in a few months you yourself might decide you could have been misled.
To me the Ukranians have played the West, here's yet another example,
Normally war crimes are investigated by independent tribunals later but the Ukrainians know full well that if they sentence this prat to life now & some others then the Russians will definitely try the right wing soldiers they have captured very quickly in retaliation enabling the Unkrainan's to get worlds sympathy yet again, if they cared at all for their captured soldiers they would wait before pushing the Russians to retaliate.
As with arming civilians out of uniform we are being played, & no I don't give a damm if Putin drops dead tomorrow just telling it as I see it.
Why does Ukraine want to hold war crimes trials at home?
Earlier today, a court in Ukraine jailed a Russian tank commander for lifefor killing a civilian, at the first war crimes trial since the invasion.
War crimes trials often happen on neutral ground at the International Criminal Court in The Hague. And that could still happen. The International Criminal Court and the United Nations have their own enquiries under way.
But Ukraine wants to move fast. Today’s conviction is unusual – coming just three months into the war.
British barrister Wayne Jordash QC, an adviser to the Ukrainian prosecutor’s office, says this does not mean cutting corners. He says all evidence has to be collected according to international standards.
He also says several thousand more indictments for war crimes are in the pipeline.
Jordash says Ukraine is adamant it wants to try all cases domestically. “The ICC can only do so much,” he tells the BBC's Panorama. The ICC tends to prosecute leaders and their immediate circles, and not lower-level officers.
The Russian government denies it has been targeting civilians.
Not changed my opinion one bit, this whole mess was instigated by the US & the Ukrainian leadership are in their own way are just as ruthless as Russia.So you have changed your opinion
Your now saying Ukrainians have played the west
