    “We will now hold an important referendum in which the citizens of Sudzha will vote whether Vladimir Putin should: 1. Get fucked, or 2. Go fuck himself. Voting is mandatory.”

        It’s wrong to put them in that position, if it is retaken then surely they would be collectively punished. And this referendum would not follow international law anyway. The area will be occupied until it is retaken by Putler or the war ends.

          Yup. Far better to do what they’re doing now, which is going above and beyond what international law requires. It requires them to be given humanitarian aid and be allowed to move further into Russia if they want to. Where they’re going extra is allowing any of them automatic asylum in Ukraine of they request it.
