Those Russian soldiers are really poor guys - they were in trenches 5 days without food and water. They haven’t washed for month. They are in Ukrainian captivity right now where good conditions are waiting for them.

Ці російські солдати справді бідні хлопці – вони 5 днів сиділи в окопах без їжі та води. Місяць не милися. Зараз вони в українському полоні, де на них чекають хороші умови.

Эти бойцы ВС РФ действительно бедные ребята – они 5 дней сидели в окопах без еды и воды. Месяц не мылись. Сейчас они в украинском плену, где их ждут хорошие условия.

There is a reason this was recorded and posted online. I don't think it is fake. But I also don't believe that every POW recieves the same treatment.

@nebulaone Why not?

@nebulaone You have evidence otherwise?

This will be my last reply. I can believe whatever I want. And as I said I want Ukraine to win. I am not some russian troll if that's what you're getting at.

@nebulaone I am not getting at anything. I do not dispute your right to believe what you want, just interested if you had anything to support the idea that ruzzians were being mistreated by Ukraine. I have not seen anything to support that.

In a war you rarely have independent proof, that's the point. So there is nothing wrong with being a bit cautious and sceptical when hearing news and I feel you are being a bit harsh.

And for sure propaganda exists on both sides, I guess no one is seriously disputing this. At the same time I have no doubts that being a PoW is 1000 times better than being in a Russian trench. But still I can acknowledge that reports like this are not some kind of independent journalism.
