#俄乌冲突23天 Ukrainian President's Speech in the United States for 800 million #
wen. Flying clouds
The Russian-Ukrainian conflict has created a large number of refugees, and the United States and Ukraine have attributed all this to the "atrocities" of the Russian army, and have been criticizing them all day, but what happened next was somewhat unexpected.
According to a video of the humanitarian situation released by the Russian Ministry of Defense on the evening of the 17th, the person in charge, Admiral Mizintev, said that in the past 24 hours, a total of 7513 Ukrainians and foreigners have issued applications to take refuge in Russia.

As of the evening of the 17th, the Russian side has received a total of 2696239 requests from Ukraine to evacuate Ukraine to Russia, these people from more than 2,000 different regions, they have a high degree of trust in the Russian army, willing to entrust their lives to Russia.
It sounds incredible, but it's not impossible.
First of all, Mizintsev said that in just one day, the Russian army has continued to distribute material assistance to civilians in Kiev Oblast, Kharkiv Oblast, Chernihiv Oblast and other regions, organized about 40 distribution activities, and the total amount of materials released exceeded 260 tons, including food, medicine and necessary daily necessities.

Mizintsev also said that 6,894 civilians from 21 countries have been hijacked by Ukrainian militants, and 70 foreign ships have been seized and their crew members have been taken hostage by them.
Secondly, since the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, a large number of refugees have taken refuge in Poland, but Poland's ability to accept refugees is obviously limited, not like the Polish president previously promised that "as many as you want, even pets can be brought", when the refugees poured in, Poland was exposed to a large number of restrictions, and politicians claimed that the number of refugees had been "saturated".

Disappointment with the West may have also forced some refugees to turn to Russia.
In order to prove the authenticity of their own remarks, the Russian media also posted a video of the Russian army evacuating people from Kharkiv Oblast, and like the evacuation operation in the Donbass region before the conflict, the evacuation crowd was still dominated by old and young women and children.

This action is reminiscent of the fact that when the conflict first broke out, Russian President Putin made a public speech, saying that the Russian military operation only targeted the Una elements, would not hurt civilians, would not open fire on residential areas, and all Ukrainian troops could ensure their own safety as long as they laid down their weapons.
The conflict has continued to this day, and the progress of the Russian army has indeed been much slower than imagined, because in addition to the obsolete weapons, some analysts believe that it is precisely because the Russian army is unwilling to open fire on civilian areas, so it is tied up in action, and there is no way to make a quick decision.
There are also often videos of Russian troops helping Ukrainian civilians on the Internet, and even the Chechen army, which used to be known for its "barbarism", has changed its appearance, and it is to give gifts to Ukrainian children and help separated civilians find their relatives, which can be described as the strategy of "attacking the city for the bottom and attacking the heart for the top" to the extreme.

Interestingly, just the day before, Zelenskiy had just complained to the United States about the "atrocities" of the Russian military in an online manner, and in the course of his video speech, he played sensational music, accompanied by pictures and videos highlighting the suffering of the Ukrainian people, comparing what the Russian military did to Ukraine to the "Pearl Harbor incident" of Japan's bombing of the United States.

US President Joe Biden also denounced Putin as a "war criminal" at a press conference on the same day.
Who knows, they have just finished complaining, turning their heads to see that about 2.4 million Ukrainian refugees have voluntarily requested to take refuge in Russia, if this is true, it is tantamount to a blow to the United States and Ukraine, and their accusations against the "atrocities" of the Russian army will be self-defeating. Moreover, the United States itself has committed countless crimes against humanity and is not qualified to make irresponsible remarks about other countries. Again, the saying goes: "Who is right and who is wrong, don't look at what is said, look at what is done, at this point, the eyes of the masses are shining.
