Not sure if you've seen it-- but there is a horribly sad video of a "soldier" with Down's Syndrome being forced-marched by his Ukrainian comrades-- mocked and abused within his own unit.... Of course, he was among those "fighting age" men conscripted to go fight those evil Russians.
Meanwhile there is "the Monaco Battalion." Dozens of wealthy Ukrainians-- mostly petrol-rich families- fled the country to the French Riviera, so that their fighting-age men could dodge the draft. Same goes for Poland-- they can't keep luxury items on the shelves because of the huge influx of wealthy Ukrainians, content to vacation and ride-out the conflict, without ever risking their sons.
It's disgusting.
