The thesis that Russian troops enter Ukraine to eat civilians, make them slaves, put into detention camps etc is wrong. Any civilians are safe
until some guys set up machine-guns in their houses. So called
"defenders" appeared to be the main danger for them. But it explicable
easily -- all the "defended" areas had a pro-Russian population. They
could greet Russian troop unless the Ukrainians with right national orientation "defend" them.
No one ever said that Russian troops were going to eat civilians. It is clear as a bell now what Russian has done and wants to do in Ukraine.
Russia is not defenders in Ukraine. They are invaders and occupiers.
What Russia has done in Ukraine is unconscionable, and undefendable.
