RUSSIAN SPECIAL FORCE APPEALED TO THE MILITARY APU!
“We are not Americans and do not bring you democracy. If you have it, then we will not touch it. Ukraine remains Ukrainian. In the near future, we will remove the power of the regime that sells you to foreigners. Don't waste your lives for this rot, save them for your country and your loved ones. Worse than the current one, you can no longer have power. Calling Russia an enemy and inviting NATO here, they left us no choice. We are not enemies. A little more and you will be convinced of this. Don't touch us and we won't touch you. t.me/RVvoenkor
Well THIS won't be mentioned in the MSM, for sure. Making appeals to populations in occupied countries is not a new thing, the US Military did the same thing in WWII in both Germany and Japan. But the wording of this communique has a different tone to it, and it's probably a good idea to keep an open mind about it. Interesting.
This is true.
It's standard practice to give the opponent a good reason not to fight.
Same with the "POWs" that all claim to have thought it's just a training exercise. The were most probs drilled to say that, because they know they won't be POWs for too long.
