    Didn’t the EU take a lot of Ukrainians as refugees? Isn’t this contradictory? I ask sincerely. My best answer would be that russians are “worst enough” on their side and might want to actually go to Ukraine… Not sure though, is that really the case for people there?

      Yeah I mean ignoring the politics of it, people don’t want shells raining down on their heads. So if you’re Russian., the logical move is to go eastwards deeper into Russia. Of course it’s doubtful many of them sympathize with Ukraine in the first place.
