How can we explain to the Ukrainians that they are not allowed to attack the points from which missiles are launched?

We tell them that we supply weapons, but we do not allow them to defend themselves. We believe that they should be allowed to neutralize the military facilities from which the missiles were fired.

But we must not allow them to hit other targets in Russia. I think we can do this if we really want to achieve our goal. And I think that, in essence, we are not provoking escalation. Russia is provoking the escalation - Macron talks out of his asshole again...

Ukraine urgently needs new soldiers, but some — left uneasy by brutal fighting and intensifying conscription efforts — are desperately trying to avoid being called up.

“When you see people in uniform, you panic. You start thinking someone will mobilize you now against your will,” a lawyer based in Kyiv told NBC News.

“The mobilization itself is not even that scary, it’s more the process of being mobilized,” the Kyiv lawyer said. “You worry that someone will throw you into the bus one day, take you somewhere, turn off your phone, and you will be cut off from the world.”
