Smartest man out there.
I wouldn’t want to get blown into smithereens by a 30€ drone on a hellscape to defend a megalomaniacal pedo tyrant like Putin for 2 quid a day and a ration of vodka.
Though he can probably never return to Russia given their history of quietly wiping people out; if he ever wanted to, he’s probably on a list now.
That’s just an added bonus.
What do they do with these prisoners? I heard at one point they were used in prisoner exchanges, but I assume Russia just sends them right back to the front.
