Maybe Putin's "mobilization" is an effort to further Russify Ukraine

[intrepidity]

What if all these tens/hundreds of thousands of new, untrained Russian soldiers just march in and are captured? What does Ukraine do with them?

I mean, I know it has been a common strategy to export Russians to territories that Moscow wants to control. Is this a new variation on that theme?

1. I think many of them will be killed

2. The ancillary "benefit" is to ethically cleanse Russia. They are disproportionately conscripting

heavily in ethnic minority locales, while lightly conscripting in the Russian parts of Russia. As these conscripts get wiped out, Russia becomes more Russian.

3. Thank you. I do not recall seeing that point elsewhere.
