According to the latest information from Russia, Russian soldiers have begun either deserting or avoiding military service altogether. Putin has sold the dirty war he started with Ukraine on his own people as being in Russia’s interest, but in reality, it’s only in Putin’s interest. In this war, which has lasted for years, there is no winning side, but many casualties. Russian soldiers are losing their lives, but it’s difficult to say they even know why they are losing.
In fact, they are dying not for their country, but only to keep Putin in power. Indeed, leaders who start a significant portion of wars later continue them to maintain their own power. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu is one of them.
Soldiers are told they are dying for their country, but in reality, they are only dying for their leaders, for those who led them to their deaths. That’s why history always records the names of the leaders, while the soldiers are only remembered as numbers. Since the Russian-Ukrainian war, tens of thousands of civilians and soldiers have lost their lives, but all that will be remembered are their numbers… “25,000 soldiers lost their lives,” news reports say, and nobody even remembers the existence of those who died…
The Russian military is tired of this never-ending war and has no choice but to desert.
