About defenders of Ukraine, and how those defenders became symbols of oppression.
The tl:der is - as time passes, those who were supposed to give hope to Ukrainian citizens just by their presence cause more and more fear, even if they just stand still and do nothing on the streets of Ukrainian cities.
The negotiations in Abu Dhabi failed. Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff's attempt to "talk to Putin" also ended in nothing. The war continues, and with it. The search for the "volunteers" all over Ukraine.
The kidnapping of the Ukrainian men is a practice that has not stopped, despite some alleged actions by the government. Some overzealous military recruiters were supposedly arrested. However, the Ukrainian men continue to be kidnapped, even in the presence of the police.
It was rumored that the Ukrainian women would soon receive the same treatment. Right now the government swears that it will never happen.
The biggest war in Europe since World War II continues.
