I pointed out that the fact that he served in the Wagner Group might explain that. Why? Do you insinuate that they (the Ukrainians) execute the prisoners? We do not hear such horrible stories about them, do we? The recent story and video about the point blank execution was not confirmed. (Or was it? By whom?)

The only person doing the insinuation here is you. Which is par for the course. I insinuated absolutely nothing about the Ukrainians executing Russian deserters. There are a lot of options open to the Ukrainians between a warm welcome and execution. Are you referring to the sledgehammer executions inflicted by Wagner on deserters? Or does that not count? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you didn't trust the news source, why did you use the parts of the article that you thought could make him look bad? 22 hours ago, placeholder said: Nailed him. 18 hours ago, heybruce said: Not difficult, but it won't faze him. He has a history of disavowing the credibility of news sources when he loses an argument, even the news sources he used in his argument. You "nailed me". Where did I say I do not believe his "four month contract"? It seems you like to twist my comments. Does it make any good for a fair debate?

Once again you're putting words in other people's mouths. I never once wrote the word "torture". Torture is illegal. There are plenty of legal options open to the Ukrainians.

You replied that I shouldn't believe everything I read. Your reply becomes meaningless unless one assumes you didn't want to believe the source you had originally relied upon to disparage Andrey Medvedev for "deserting".

I know Russia Today is dodgy because the government puts strict limits on what they can and can't report. For example, they can't call the the war in Ukraine a war.

There is no such as good and bad in war, and you can imagine yourself on one of the sides in a conflict like this. Most people do not understand what war do to people no matter what side you are on.

Just wondering that - in these days when we (and the world) have learned so much about media "under thumb of its government" - somebody dares to place such an argument like you did. It seems that some members we see here daily discussing strongly - and blindly - the current world situation, have lost their touch with the reality. Anyway, I am well aware how such a RT link would be here classified within minutes, I would not waste my time. My links that haven't had long life - and the post with them - are from an "approved" source, unfortunately, many of them have gone from various reasons...

Before the invasion, there is plenty of valid links with information about Ukraine and the border conflict. Well balanced I would say until the invasion last year. Now nobody wants to see or talk about it. There have been two parts or more in this conflict for a long time, but now it is Putin who is terror bombing civilians in Ukraine, and then it is easier ro choose side, and let the propaganda work for the better! It is only up to Putin to end the war now! Nobody else! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is only up to Putin to end the war now! Nobody else! At the beginning (March 2022) of the conflict there were meetings organized in Belarus with the purpose of ceasefire and perhaps more. However, shortly after the first seance one of the Ukraine participants, a banker, was point blank executed on suspicion of Russian collaboration - as it was afterwards explained in Ukraine media. That despite the fact that days before he was instrumental in saving Kiev from a Russian attack. Now, after almost one year the official statement says that it was a mistake, a misunderstanding within the secret services. So, after such events, who will be so keen to further try to negotiate?

You state as absolute fact what is a rather murky situation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denys_Kireyev But what is interesting is that you now accept that Russia did plan to attack Kiev in the early stage of the war but failed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering how you can consider comparing Western media, which loves to investigate and report government malfeasance and incompetence, to Russia media. I suspect your posts using approved sources that were deleted were done so for being off-topic deflections. You do that a lot, as you are doing now. This topic is about someone who signed up for four months with Wagner, served his time, was horrified by what he saw, and, after being told his service commitment was being extended unilaterally, fled Russia. If you have credible evidence the story is false, feel free to post it. If all you've got is "I don't trust media" then don't post. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
