Russia and Ukraine have been at full-scale war for more than three years. Throughout this time, the Ukrainians have mounted a fierce resistance to Russia’s aggression, but their strength appears to be waning. Shura Burtin, a journalist from the Swiss publication Reportagen, spent two months in Ukraine, traveling to Kyiv and throughout the Donbas region and speaking with people all along the way. He observed a national mood that has shifted noticeably over the past year and a half. Terrified by the prospect of being drafted, many Ukrainians have gone into hiding to elude military patrols. There is a shortage of soldiers at the front, and the troops there now have been unable to rotate out for several months. Desertion has become commonplace. Evacuating the wounded has become harder, too, with survival odds plummeting, largely due to drones, which kill infantry far more effectively than older weaponry.
La guerra, les revoltes armades, etc. és un ingredient present en boi tots els processos de col·lapse.
Escassetat de recursos? Lluita pel poc que queda, intent d’acaparar-los, descontentament…
Per què hauria de ser diferent aquest cop, quan, de fet, la humanitat no ha deixat mai la companyia del genet que munta el cavall de color del foc?
ES:
La guerra, las revueltas armadas, etc. es un ingrediente presente en casi todos los procesos de colapso.
Escasez de recursos? Lucha por lo poco que queda, intento de acapararlos, descontento…
¿Por qué debería ser diferente esta vez cuando, de hecho, la humanidad no ha dejado nunca la compañía del jinete que monta el caballo de color del fuego?
