"He trusted #putin?" 😂 😆 🤣

"We were promised that we would not take part in hostilities at all. But something went wrong." - 22 year old #Russian conscript #Nikolay, who is currently in #Ukrainian captivity, tells #Washington_Post. When asked who promised this, he replied: "President #Vladimir_Putin."

The media specified that "#Ukrainian prison guards were present in the cells during interviews but did not closely monitor the conversations, interject or review material before publication."

I think this is an interesting read that shines a light on how #Russian soldiers are treated by their commanders, among other things.

In a Ukrainian prison, cells are full of young Russian conscripts

The capture of so many young men in the Ukrainian incursion poses a significant challenge for the Kremlin.
