> Why is Russia the top Ukrainian refugee destination? UN officials think Poland is the top destination: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ukrainian_refugee_crisis_(2022%E2%80%93present)#Number_of_refugees https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ukrainian_refugee_crisis_(2022... > Why is Russia giving full citizenship to Ukrainians? They want to annex Ukraine, of course they’re giving their citizenship. They do it in all occupied territories: DNR/LNR, Crimea, Abkhazia (90% took it), South Ossetia (95% took it). > Why hasn't Russia banned anything Ukrainian? They have even banned the colors of the Ukrainian flag: https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2023/jun/5/russia-muzzles-public-displays-of-blue-and-yellow-/ https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2023/jun/5/russia-muzzl...

  > Those accepting citizenship probably understand the situation better than we do, and aren't doing it to self-genocide. When Russia denies basic services to those who don't have Russian passports, it's either take it or become a second class citizen, like Russia did in Ukraine: https://www.businessinsider.com/russia-withholds-meds-ukrainians-who-refuse-russian-passport-2023-7 https://www.businessinsider.com/russia-withholds-meds-ukrain... It's a horrible position to be forced to take a passport you don't want in order to survive - in your own home. It's an atrocious crime against humanity, and a blatant attempt to dilute those who aren't Russians into forced Russian citizens. But if you want an even more evil attempt to destroy Ukraine national identity in occupied territory is what Russia is doing by forcing schools to teach a distorted event about the Russian invasion and indoctrinate children: https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2023/09/ukraine-russia-new-history-textbook-is-a-blatant-attempt-to-unlawfully-indoctrinate-school-children-in-russia-and-russian-occupied-ukrainian-territories/ https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2023/09/ukraine-russi... Or this is also propaganda?
