You (and most other hyperpartisans) are ignoring the Ukrainians who are fighting with Russia. (although in your eyes they probably aren't Ukrainians)

There were Poles fighting on the side of the Germans when my country was attacked in WW2, that doesn't change the fact that Germany attacked Poland and it was German aggression that started WW2.
No one is ignoring that fact - it's just that it's very much an exception, unlike in Afganistan where majority of the country was either clearly on the Taliban side or was at least indifferent to them.

Sorry, I thought it was obvious my country is Poland, maybe I should have phrased it in an even more obvious way.

You, and other Russia apologists are ignoring so many major facts that your continuous harping on small and insignificant facts are not going to convince anybody.
And that's before we get into forced conscription, outright blackmail, genocide, the murder of countless civilians and the general state of the part of Ukraine that got 'liberated' by Russia. Spare us the strawmen.

All conscription is forced; that's what the word means.

Thank you for the correction, you are correct. This is the drawback of arguing on a forum where you are not using your first language. But I hope that even if that was doubled up it did not stop anybody from understanding what I meant.
