#Russia is reportedly conscripting men from the Russian-occupied areas in eastern and southern #Ukraine. This is in breach of the Geneva conventions which specifically ban such action. 1/2

"...it was not only enlistment in the armed and auxiliary forces of the Occupying Power that was forbidden, but also all forms of pressure or propaganda aimed at securing voluntary enlistment. The prohibition is absolute and no derogation from it is permitted". 2/2

News report about this (in Russian):

Russia has been doing this for almost three years now. There's no punishment for committing war crimes if the world doesn't enforce them.

Russia already made it very clear that war crimes don't apply to them...

Why would these Ukrainians die for Putin?

Ukrainians living in the Russian-occupied areas are forces or coerced to accept Russian passports. Otherwise they lose losing homes, jobs, driving licences, access to healthcare / education. Once they receive Russian passports, they are coerced into the Russian forces.

that was known before the whole 🇺🇦 would be forced to fight against NATO in case of a 🇷🇺 takeover of 🇺🇦

War Crime after War Crime, but the West doesn’t care. Why do we have the @UN, #GenevaConvention and all these overfunded organizations and agreements, when these are totally useless? Disgusting! @POTUS @antonioguterres @Bundeskanzler

But how empires work Empires don't give sht about the Genève convention

And this is what will happen to all of Ukraine if russia wins. And then the Baltics will be next.
