I have a few friends who do that I trust in this matter + I follow a lot of people on both sides of the war (support-wise) who do speak Russian and who report it into English. While this doesn’t give as good a view as someone who actually speaks Russian, it still provides a good view overall and I haven’t had any reason to doubt my conclusions on this matter accordingly.
Of course, you are under no obligation to believe me, and I obviously wont take offence or whatever if you disagree, it’s just what I believe based on the evidence I have collated. It’s impossible to be certain until proper quantitative data is put together in a good study, though.
Yeah I’m going to wait until the war is done, because this all seems highly anecdotal. Thanks for being intellectually honest about where you’re coming from though.
That’s fully understandable and probably the better take tbh. If I was in social science mode I’d agree with you, this is just my rough vibe from collating stuff so I fully appreciate that.
How much Russian do you speak?
