    This dude did it for the money and made the incredibly poor choice of leaving Ukraine to spend that money in Spain while trying to get his Russian ex wife to come. Deserting is honorable in this war, but I doubt many will care about this guy.

        What is? That he did it for the money? If it was sympathy for the Ukrainian cause, why did he reject Ukrainian protection and citizenship and go to Spain?

          Who the hell knows why he was in Spain. Does it matter? At least it’s warmer there this time of year.

          And he wanted to quit the military after his service but pilots where ‘encouraged’ to stay in service as your family would not be well, or you might end up on the front line as infantry.
