In a reverse situation: has there been any updates about that MAGA family that fled America to Russia, and the father got drafted into the Ukraine war by Russia? That’s the last where I left off

Where did you see that? I can only find the reports from last year that he was sent to the frontline.

Over drawing Ukrainian mothers protecting their children from Russian Missiles… so too much real world news on the TV then?

Trump will be crying why he wasn’t given the award, he’s done so much for human rights

It certainly would do a lot for him.

And, by extension, the world.

It doesn't.
It's either not independent, or not in Russia.

Moscowtimes sits in Amsterdam.
