Exactly. I was flabbergasted at the sheer number of Ukranians I've seen interviewed by the media that said they didn't believe it would actually happen etc. I followed every development since it started at the end of last year and by the time it was announced that blood supplies had been moved in around a month before the invasion actually happened that led me to believe actually there really is likely to be an invasion as you wouldn't need blood otherwise. Then the next big, big clue was the soldiers sticking around in Belarus after the Olympics ended. That was your first major warning to get out. I can't quite remember the order in which the next few things happened exactly, but certainly when Putin announced he was recognizing Donetsk and Luhansk you could tell his plan was actively underway. The next big tip-off that the invasion was close was when China told its diplomats to leave. My assumption is that Russia would have given China a heads up to avoid surprising China and creating tensions. That would have been my signal to exit the country and my bags would have already been packed and plans firmly made. The next critical signal was that Russia itself told its diplomats to leave. There's only one reason Russia itself would tell its diplomats to leave. After I saw that news I thought to myself... hmm there isn't anything more Putin needs to do to actually be ready to invade, so next comes Z-day. Then they invaded. If you were paying close attention and could connect the dots you absolutely had ample warning to get the hell out of dodge. I agree, this is the type of news you should be paying attention to.
