There is no war on Russian soil - fleeing from what? Russian tourists are fleeing to Thailand to escape the war in Ukraine or look to move to the Southeast Asian country. Thailand has become a haven for Russian visitors who are looking to escape Moscow’s war in Ukraine that has now entered its second year. Visitors are in Thailand but are they fleeing Russia too. Now thousands of Russians are looking for a new home, fearing economic woes in Russia and a military draft because of the Kremlin’s war in Ukraine. https://www.voanews.com/a/thousands-of-russians-flee-to-thailand-to-escape-war-/6979011.html 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did this years ago and then the Ruble fell sharply. Then not everyone could pay for their condominiums anymore. Maybe they will have better luck this time.

Unless they already received draft papers they are unlikely to be arrested on return. 50k baht a year will get them an ED visa extended every 3 months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's true some have fled but not that many and certainly not ones like the pretty girls in this article. What visa would they get in Thailand if they are young enough to be conscripted? they would only get tourists visas then where will they go? it's nonsense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
