Russia-Ukraine War - News and Developments PART 2

As l9ng as it is the same, there is no excess compensation, so they are not mercenaries - even if they make more money there than someone that meet all th3 criteria of a mercenary in a poor nation.



If in individual is brought to a court in a country using common law, it would make sense they use that principle to try to make sense out of the law.
Right now, the Wagners are in Ukraine, Are they really residents of Ukraine if they come from Georgia? They could be on a plane to an African nation the next day.


In a situation where Wagner group fight alongside their Russian military, you don’t call them mercenaries. They are Russians. Same way you called Azov battalions Ukraine forces, that same way you should refer to Wagner as Russian forces.
It's the same, US Military do takes non-American, and they have the same paygrade than American Citizens, it was paid to soldier according to rank and not according to the Citizenship status.


Again, first of all, International Law is not common law. In fact, as my wife said, international law is a different jurisprudence all together because you would have to fit that into all kind of legal system in the world, at least to the framework for those who sign those law and treaty.

On the other hand, a lot of international treaty does not actually make sense. That's why most international law tends to update over time.

They’re (Wagner) state owned anyway ( Russian)

Yes, that is the point I have been making all the time.
The debate is what happens if a Georgian or other non-Russian fights in a Wagner unit.

They are obviously not Russian citizens, but are they a "Resident of Ukraine (or Russia)" by simply beeing there.

Ugly head of Euro Nazis rising again:-

There is one side who:
Started war of agression
Annexes land
Ethnically cleanses regions
has torture rooms in every village

And it is not the “Euros”.

If you want to find Fascists…look no further then Russia.

That's what I will say at this point.

Since they are not soldiers, but mercenaries, are not protected by the Geneva convention..,so the mercenaries are killers , not soldiers or any regularly troops. Your Georgian and others like him will fall in this category

The Georgians will be considered mercenaries, but the Russians will not.

This is quite obvious. Arabs decided after WWII to import Nazis, then allied with the Soviet Union and the US was not going to let the Soviets establish a major foothold in the Middle East. As a result of winning, Israel has provided a lot of intelligence to the US like Mig-21s, T-62s etc. for evaluation.
Why would the US have such relations with Pakistan, which obviously considers the US as an enemy, and has to be bribed to even pretend to provide support?
We only have degree of friends, enemy is not in our vocab.

Started war of agression
Annexes land

Sounds like a colonialist European ?

I am surprised that Putin and his gang haven't been removed yet.
Excuse me, Russian people or public aren't like Pakistani awaam.
They're super patriotic and die hard pro-Russia.
They were like this when Napolean attacked Russia 250 years ago.
They were like this in WW2.
They are the SAME Today in Ukr.

An exceptional performance by Kyiv’s air defense last night



No, all Russian missiles fired at Kyiv were intercepted.
That’s a lot of money going wasted. Kalibr or Kinzhal costs millions USD.apiece. Ukraine air defense is very strong now and will get stronger with more Patriots and Iris batteries. Putin’s air terror coming to an end. Good thing.
