Volunteer fighters armed with assault rifles in Kyiv ready to defend Ukraine

Being a child from the 70s, having had family in the colonial wars, and the whole cold war, followed by Balkans war, I have a bad sense about all of this.

Still lets hope it gets sorted out without going that far.

The leaders aren't in the frontline among their soldiers leading the charge, rather seat comfortable at home kilometres away issuing orders.

That makes a big difference how decisions are taken.
