This video is causing quite the stir on Telegram and Twitter. These guys thought they were goners. Encircled, ordered to stay put, facing death or capture, they made a video on 11/1 that disclosed losses and their morale. They tried to be patriotic, but their emotions come through.
They survived because their commander withdrew, but it's now claimed that he's facing court martial for disobeying an order. The Ukrainians pushed back the Russian advance.
Some people are calling them heroes. Some are calling them disobedient. Some cowards. One person said that Forrest Gump ran away and lived. Some are arguing better to give up the position and save seasoned troops. Others are saying that too many are dying every day, better to give hope to life. Many, many are saying that in warfare, you can't just withdraw when you're scared or facing death, otherwise there wouldn't ever be a stable front line.
I don't really have an opinion, I just know that life is beautiful."Wuap's "problem" is that he is smart & principled & committed to a moral course of action. His actions are supposed to reflect his ethical code.

You can't second guess the commander. These battle lines have been moving back and forth the whole war, and their flank retreated, so now they're out there by themselves.Originally posted by wuapinmon View PostComment

From this extremely informative article: un.org/en/about-us/member-states/russian-federationNotwithstanding apparent progress in Gorbachev's efforts to preserve the Union, on December 1, 1991, ninety percent of Ukrainian voters voted for independence. The surprising outcome of the Ukrainian vote persuaded the other republics that Gorbachev's attempts to negotiate a new Union treaty were doomed. Summing up the resulting situation, then C.IA. Director Robert M. Gates stated that "the center is evaporating before our eyes." A week after the Ukrainian vote, the leaders of Russia, Ukraine, and Byelorussia formally announced the dissolution of the Soviet Union and said they had agreed to establish a "Commonwealth of Independent States" in its place. Shortly after this announcement, eleven of the twelve remaining former republics signed a Commonwealth Accord. the central government with the role of coordinating foreign affairs, economic matters, and nuclear arms policy, with all other powers turned over to the republics. The Commonwealth Accord contemplates a conference of heads of state and government based in the Byelorussian capital of Minsk as the main political institution of the Commonwealth, with the chairmanship rotating among the member-States. Although the Commonwealth would coordinate foreign affairs, defense, economics, and transportation, Russian President Boris Yeltsin made clear that, in contrast to the approach embodied in the Union Treaty proposed by Gorbachev, "the Commonwealth is not a State." With respect to the Soviet seat in the United Nations, in a display of George Orwell's maxim that "all animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others," the Commonwealth leaders underscored the pre-eminence of Russia in the new grouping by voting unanimously for Russia to assume the seat. Under the Commonwealth Accord, the other members of the Commonwealth (except Byelorussia and Ukraine, which were already U.N. members) would insist on their rights as independent States to apply for their own membership in the United Nations.
Russia Assumes the Soviet Seat Russia's quest to inherit the U.S.S.R.'s U.N. seat took some U.S. officials by surprise. Yeltsin's suggestion to Secretary of State James Baker during their meeting in Moscow on December 16, 1991, that Russia would seek the Soviet seat drew a noncommittal response. Baker said only that the question would have to be taken to the United Nations, at which point the United States would offer a view. As late as December 22, U.S. officials were still publicly stating that for Russia to replace the Soviet Union on the Security Council, it must "first apply for the seat, after which the matter would be debated by the General Assembly and Security Council." Meanwhile, Russian President Yeltsin sent a letter to the U.N. Secretary General suggesting a far less cumbersome process. His letter proposed that Russia would simply "continue" the membership of the Soviet Union in the United Nations and requested that the United Nations use the name "The Russian Federation" in place of the name "The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics."
Finally, during a Christmas Eve televised speech to the American people, President Bush announced that the United States would "support Russia's [automatic] assumption of the U.S.S.R.'s seat as a permanent member of the United Nations' Security Council. ' A week later, the former Soviet representative, sitting behind a shiny new nameplate emblazoned with the words "The Russian Federation," took part in the first Security Council meeting of the new year without challenge. Within twelve months, the United Nations approved the applications for membership of the other former Soviet republics without dissent.
