And this the first big mistake of become a soldier in a war during this times. That's why many europeans will not fight for their countries aswell, there isnt a rich paycheck waiting you, only misery and death, warlords games sitting on their red chairs around long table, I can't believe that still there is someone doing the soldier, expecially the attackers, who are this people to accept invading another country? Thiefs, murders, evil guys.
I'm not many europeans, and I'm afraid you're partly correct, but should the need rise I will fight for my country and any amount of money isn't in the equation. I want my kids to grow up in a free country like I did and fight for it, like my grandparents did. I really hope things don't escalate to that, but I'll do it if necessary and I'm pretty happy I don't need to go by myself.
From my current location you could reach Russian border in 3-5 hours by car (as it always has been) and I'm somewhat far away from the eastern border by our standards. Ukrainians are witnessing what our eastern neighbor is capable of all day every day and if I have anything to say for it it's not going to happen here.
You're right, Elrond. /s
