They made the same offer to men from Nepal...many relocated to Russia
So far 10 are dead and hundreds missing
So hundreds are dead
You never know, some may have safely defected to Ukraine.
This would be the most circuitous immigration route they could take to get to Europe... go to russia, head to front lines (and survive), surrender, become a POW, claim refugee status (and avoid being deported), land in a western country and start from scratch.
I was thinking just because they realized if they didn't defect, they'd be killed, not to get to Europe.
Sounds like a modern Don Quixote (though I imagine in their minds it's more like The Odyssey).
The great thing for Russia is that they know their target demographic will never see that news!
