Just another piece of evidence that the west never actually cared about Ukraine or people living there. Ukrainians are just a pawn the west is using to try and weaken Russia with zero consideration for the lives of the people living there.

Well, the alternatives are heavy metal, which also aren't the greatest to breathe in. It's almost like war is aweful and this one shouldn't have been started in the first place, but here we are...

No, the alternative is for the west to stop using Ukraine to fight a proxy war with Russia.

              if Ukraine lose completely most of ukrainans living in Ukraine simply get extriminated or forcely assimilated.
Russia started the war when invided Ukraine in 2014.
