A grim milestone for #Russia was reached this morning:

1.5 million casualties in their stupid #UkraineWar

(Casualties = dead wounded captured and missing)

Obviously #WWII surpasses that, but no conflict since. In fact 1.5 million casualties surpasses all conflicts Russia/ #USSR was involved in since, combined

The world is a very stupid place full of very stupid people who don't understand the stakes with rising #fascism. Russia shows them where it leads. Do they see?

Звідки такі "наміри" тотального винищення цілого народу (а далі й інших народів)? Між іншим, до совєтських гітлерівці поставилися практично так само, після "побиття глечиків" між двома диктаторами — німецьким і совєтським

Auriez-vous quelques livres à suggérer sur ce sujet: les #résistants, #collabos et autres position plus floues (car il fallait bien "sur"vivre à cette guerre dont on ne savait pas l'issue) #wwII #guerre #artiste
