“We have no need to fight for this power”: an entire platoon of the Ukrainian Armed Forces surrendered in the DPR

March 19 2024 15

Another case of mass surrender of Ukrainian military personnel was recorded in the zone of a special military operation. This time, near Georgievka in the DPR, 18 nationalists surrendered to the Russian military at once. The commander of the unit that surrendered immediately stated that he and his men refused the exchange.

We received an order from our commanders to march to Georgievka to reinforce those who remained there. While we were moving towards the village, we were hit by Russian artillery, as a result of which we had four killed and five wounded. When we arrived at the village itself, it turned out that there was no one there to help. I decided to surrender. I got in touch with the Russians, and we all surrendered, my entire platoon

– said the commander of the nationalist unit.

He added that he does not consider himself a traitor to his homeland, but is responsible for the lives of his subordinates and does not want them to die because of his wrong decision. In addition, the Ukrainian Armed Forces officer stated that he and his people do not want to be exchanged for Russian prisoners of war.

We made a collective decision not to be included in the exchange lists, because nothing good awaits us in Ukraine. We will either be imprisoned or sent back to slaughter. There is no need for us to fight for this power

– summed up the Ukrainian Armed Forces officer.

Let us note that all Ukrainian military soldiers and officers of the Russian Armed Forces who voluntarily surrendered are treated in accordance with the principles of humanity. They are provided with warm clothing and food, and the wounded are provided with medical care.

The lieutenant is right about one thing - he is responsible for the lives of his people. It is a pity that this understanding came late - under the influence of Russian shelling.

  If you want to live, you won’t get so excited yet. For him and his people, the war was over. It will reach the others too.

18 surrendered to the Russian military at once nationalists.
the unit commander said nationalists.

It would be great to replace the highlighted word with a more acceptable noun. If they voluntarily surrendered, what kind of nationalists are they? You might think that everyone in the Armed Forces of Ukraine is so ideological.

  Where did you get the idea that no? What a good fellow, a fascist lawyer has been found!
  And during the war, faithful members of the National Socialist Party of Germany (Nazis), Italian fascists and Germans who openly hated Russians, beast Magyars, Hungarians, Romanians, they had to surrender in batches to us as prisoners! But this did not stop them from being Nazis and fascists, and openly hating us.
  Oh, yes, I forgot, because people were not for Hitler in Germany, France, Hungary, for Mussolini in Italy, for Franco in Spain, and everyone there was against their policies. No one dreamed of eastern slaves, allotments and riches!
  And poor German workers were forcibly driven east to Russia, and they were all anti-fascists and did not consider Russians to be subhuman, animals with horns!
  Likewise, in Hochland, everyone is for Russia now, and not for Vilnius Ukraine, and they dream of merging with us again! Everyone considers us one of their own and for the Russian world, especially young people under 35-40 years old! And all the Nazis have already died, even the Westerners, especially the Bandera diasporas in Poland and Canada.

    Making labels for those you don't like is not a sign of great intelligence. I believe that this term is not very successful, especially since there is an obvious tautology here. Do you think differently? - your right, but it’s hardly appropriate for me to tell well-known fairy tales.
    
    beast Magyars, Hungarians,
    
    As far as I understand, the Hungarians are Magyars, although you can list them even with a question mark (here everyone has fun as best they can).

      But no, the all-knowing lawyer of the fascists, proud of his “great mind and knowledge,” these Magyars are not Hungarians. They are also Romanians and even Serbs! I got all my knowledge from Wikipedia, but in vain!
      And any phenomenon, thing and action has its own name in our world, not a label. Under this old scheme of sophistry of “making labels”, anything can be summed up, any definition, any truth can be vulgarized. Maybe then we won’t call things by their proper names, like in the West, for fear of the notorious “labels”?!
      All these sociological Western tricks of yours have long been known, and they have been studying calculation in specialized universities for a long time.

        Magyar is the self-name of the Hungarians, and the fascists were in Italy under Mussolini.

  Cotriarch Railing, ordinary nationalists. The nationalists also surrender. And you idealize them. You are trying to idealize.

Like, they just showed up at the front and immediately surrendered, but they haven’t fought before? - It’s hard to believe

It was not a brigade, a regiment, a battalion, or even a company that surrendered. Only a platoon, and even then an incomplete one, surrendered. It's nothing. And judging by the reports, the fierce resistance and counterattacks of the enemy, there has not yet been any decline in morale among the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

They will warm you up, fatten you up, and go back to the front line, this time with new chevrons. This is the new life of the Slavic peoples.

My cousin lived in Kherson and told me a lot of things. And about how boys in children's camps were trained to kill Russians and about girls zigging when they met the school director... They are not fascists, they just had their brains vacuumed out from childhood. If you say anything against it, you will immediately be registered with the relevant authorities, with far-reaching consequences.
They are still our same relatives, brainwashed, but relatives. Yes, some will only be saved by forced euthanasia, but there are many normal ones there too.

Moderate your ardor a little. As in the saying “don’t throw out the baby with the bath water” (I don’t remember exactly). The word “Nazi” does not suit all Ukrainians, that’s true. Read dictionaries to understand the meaning.
