“Yeah, we’ve been trying to swap them for months, but they won’t go back”
Why not drop cheap little screens with video of this onto Russian trenches
They’re not going to want to go back to Russia lol
Translation:
**Journalist:** “Racks of bread, this is daily norm for this prisoner of war camp” **Narrator:** “Their lunch is 3 meals + bread, all together is more than a kilogram of food”
**Cook 1:** “Borsch, barley porridge, cucumber salad” **Cook 2:** “600g first meal, 350g of porridge, 40g meat and ofcourse 30g of sauce for the meat, 60g of salad and 300g of bread”
**Narrator:** “Some prisoners can’t manage this much satiety, for example this russian took only borsch and salad and refused the second course” **russian POW:** “I don’t want” **Journalist speaking to him:** “Is it enough?” **russian POW:** “Yes, its enough”
**4 russian POWs after finishing their meals speaking in Ukrainian:** “We thank you for the lunch!”
**Narrator:** “Its true that there are prisoners, who are not satisfied with the conditions, like Ilya from Volodymyr city. He doesn’t like his surroundings” **Ilya, the prisoner:** “I don’t like the climate” **Narrator:** “And the menu itself” **Ilya, the prisoner:** “I don’t know, make Olivier salad, don’t just simply cut cucumbers, i want something tasty, something homemade” **Narrator:** “Meanwhile Ilya is sucking on a tasty candy, he says, that he bought it in a local shop for his honestly earned money” **Ilya, the prisoner:** “We weaved couches in winter, we had a wage of 150 hrivnyas then. Now we have a wage of about 1500. 10 times more” **Journalist:** “That’s cool” **Ilya, the prisoner:** “Yes, it’s not bad, i’m all for it! What if they make it 10 time more again? That’s going to be amazing”
And when they go back to ruZZia, they’ll cry how they were tortured and starving.
Aside from broadcasting their distribution of humanitary aid from occupied Russia, this is the best kind of propaganda Ukraine can produce. They just need to be able to sustain that level of comfortability in the event that they get overwhelmed with POWs. I think it goes without saying that Russia is probably pretty war weary by now. Losing a good portion of an entire generation will do that to a country lol. I think it’s going to be too long before Russian soldiers start surrendering in numbers even greater than they have been. It’s the smartest thing they can possibly do. Then again, Russia has been launching artillery strikes on their own surrendering soldiers, a la World War II, smdh. This is all just a senseless waste of life and it’s honestly sad to see.
Treating honorless with honor even though they deserve zero. The respect of Ukrainians will never stop to amaze me. They have been very open to insight into how they handle POWs, from many countries and instances.
This war is as clear as it gets.
Meanwhile UA POWs going through muscovian Auschwitz-Birkenau.
This is what they show on tv. That means all the other facilities are worse. 🙂 That’s how it works in media.
And now show us ukrainian POWs in russian prisons if you can. Its babarian what the russian Nazis do
Way more that these animals deserve. Actually, I wouldn’t even call them animals since animals deserve to be well-treated as much as possible. Orcs. These orcs deserve nothing.
russia finds that place it will be bombed.
Their first ever taste of being a part of a normal society
“Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord. On the contrary: “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.”” Romans 12:17-20 NIV
Prisoner of war must be nice now a days
I would let the. apply for political asylum in west if wanted after ukraine clear them of war crimes and of course if ukraine let them go. Is a win-win. If they are any good profesionally and want to integrate, let them.work in factories, agriculture, whatever. In time, russians back in mordor will find out that it is better to surrender and avoid war crimes and get a ticket to the west, and not only oligarchs can live in the west. Drain their valuable.people if any
Behave like a human and they will treat you like a human, a whole new experience for them. From what I have seen all Ukraine pow camps look like this.
I know that many wonder why the Ukrainians would feed the Russians so well- it’s a basic psychological warfare tactic. These men have been used to inconsistent supply, and probably have gone days at a time without food before on the front line. The food that does arrive is at times rotten, stale, or the officers have taken the fresh produce and meat for themselves, and left only non-perishable processed food for their subordinates.
These are military men, even though they aren’t all professional soldiers (most of them these days are conscripts) they do appreciate the regimenting seen in the video. Gathering in formation in the morning, being released to the dining hall, lights out hours, it all helps a soldier feel normal. A solid routine reduces suicidal ideation, malingering, and keeps the men focused.
When these men inevitably get released back to Russia in a prisoner exchange, they will remember the mercy and kindness shown to them. It will make them that much more hesitant to pull the trigger on Ukrainians in the future, even if just by a percentage point. It’ll always be in the back of their minds that the Ukrainians fed them better than their commanders ever did. It won’t be lost on them that they were able to receive consistent medical care during their internment, and that Ukrainian medical staff tended to their wounds, even intervening with life-saving surgery when necessary.
The harsh reality is that these men will be sent right back to the front as punishment for surrendering or allowing themselves to be captured. There’s no doubt there. Will it make a significant difference? I’d like to think so- soldiers talk, and some will be curious how the Ukrainians treated them. Some will craft tall tales of resisting torture to save face, but others will be honest.
In the end, anything that can be done to make the Russians more hesitant, anything that can be done to keep them up at night wishing they were back in Ukrainian captivity, is worth it as it eventually results in a tangible effect.
Am I wrong for being resentful that my friends in Kиïв sleep in their hallway every night because of missiles while the Russian killers of Ukrainians enjoy 3 hots and a cot?
i hope someone is checking their eye blink rates. we wouldn’t want them to be sending messages home about how badly treated and tortured they are lol.
In a way hope can be torture. the Ukrainian state is giving these guys hope where none existed, is that a cruel and unjust punishment.
