Ukraine's new mobilization law: not effective enough? | DW News 

Yes, no retreat for him.........😄

An excellent idea

Send Putin, first.

@kyoungd Putin was willing to negotiate 2 months after the war broke out. It’s just those fear mongers kept screaming “there is no one to negotiate with”, “he is going to invade us next”.

And his hair dresser too …..

No. They will be persecuted and probably interrogated due to "espionage" and "savoteours"

Facts.

That is official policy. High tax payers are exempt - since they are essential to the economy.

@@Hereford1642 what are you talking about, mate? There is no such policy. It doesn’t exist. The only “policy” here is corruption on the scale of the state. Poor people are kidnapped from the streets and sent to the frontlines.

That happened even during world wars too, rich Americans used their influence and money to dodge conscriptions. Same right now with Ukrainian and russian rich/elites!

But infamous Joseph Stalin had that capacity. He refused to exchange his son an airforce officer of USSR imprisoned in Germany in lieu of some German high ranking officials during 2nd world war !!

The word democracy comes from the Greek words "demos" and "kratia", meaning people's rule. The biggest mistake people make when talking about democracy is they assumed all people are "people". Ancient Greece had a large slave population that weren't considered people, and when Europe preaches democracy, they only ever considered themselves as people. The consider Ukrainians slaves.

Well said! Yugoslavia was wealthier and better run than Bulgaria, , Romania and Greece before the civil war. It was such a total tragedy with the primadona ex communist leaders of each region suddenly finding god and nationalism as a tool for carving out their own political agenda. The whole coin could have joined the EU and then peacefully split like Czech and Slovakia. That war was a colossal waste of lives and money. At least Croatia and Slovenia made it into the EU.

Well that is because Ukraine decided it to be so. Go bicker at them.

you are not wrong but it is because of childcare

read other news, dude the women are serving the Ukrainian generals in the office

​@@Onatyrade Many women don't have children these days, yet they still don't have to take part in the war effort. I'm not denying biological facts and the battlefield usually requires a strong physique. There are, however, other tasks during war time such as logistics and nursing, in which women are desperately needed. It is beyond absurd, that you can find Ukrainian women on tinder in the West at the same time young men are banned from leaving the country (the latter I fully understand and accept, the first is insane).

The original reason was to protect population recovery over the long term. Soviets had more women in military service than anywhere else during WW2. This was in spite of strong attitudes against it because they were desperate. Women continued in service postwar but there was also pressure for them have children to restore the population. Ukraine has conscription laws largely based on expectations of family roles and some gender bias based on perceptions of capabilities. But this is partially a product of the history of repeated demographic disasters in Ukraine such as the mass starvation of the Holodomor as well as wars. Universal conscription regardless of gender would be more fair and more useful. But it would be an unpopular change in the law at this point. It still might happen if necessary.

More people serving reduces the individual risks for everyone as people can rotate through with less time on the front.

Thank you Boris and brandon for sending this kids to their demised 🖐

One of the problems, if not the most important one, is that the West won't stick to the terms of any agreement they make with Russia. If you make a deal with Ukraine and the West decides they don't like it, and they never do, they'll send more money into Ukraine to get them to renege on the deal. The heart of the war is in DC.

Then trust the US to scramble that on their way again

There will be an express lane for surrender at the front.

WWII soldiers were drafted.

I'm hoping, Paul, you'll answer the questions because you may find their historical behavior comforting and perhaps even a bit inspiring.

@TriAmpHiFi Times have changed. Even poor young people today are not the same peasant draftees they were a century ago. Ukraine is a highly urbanized European country. The new generations are raised with comfort. They value their life much more than some hypothetical "duty to their country", for most even the concept of "home country" is alien and they think of themselves first. Some will fight. Most will do everything they can to not do that even after they find themselves on the frontlines.

@@PaulV. . So your answer is, times have changed and poor young draftees did NOT refuse to follow orders, run or surrender back in the day but now poor young draftees WILL refuse to follow orders, run or surrender. History and active wars today prove that wrong because hundreds of thousands of poor young draftees are firing weapons at each other on front lines all over the globe every day. Poor young draftees get two opportunities to make a choice. First, facing the conscription itself. Run or be executed. Second, to fight when faced with people shooting at you to kill. So what happens? What always happens? Where's the motivation you ask? After a group of disparate poor young draftees are thrust together in boot camp training something transformative happens. They learn they have strengths they never knew they had & they learn to operate as a cohesive force without individualism. The bonds of a Soldiers Brotherhood are sown. They WILL fight for each other. They won't care about the reasons why. The most important motivation is to stay alive. Their brother on their right alive. Their brother on their left alive. Poor young draftees have always fought this way and will always fight this way.
