7:31 am
and to russian of your patient has been going on for more than 500 days now. prospects of an in your belief, as the situation at the fund evolves into trench warfare. ukrainian counter offensive is meeting heavy russian resistance around the town of beth moved. both sides are fighting for every inch and each country is reporting high casualties. this information has not been verified independently. so these 2 russian men don't want to fight for poor. they flip their country when they were threatened with constriction, they feared being used this kind of sutter on the front line and were horrified by the idea of killing ukrainian soldiers. one of them said to georgia, the other 2 kinds of stem. our port met the 2 men who even now don't feel safe from the long arm of most count. for some months now, a young russian man has been living in fear of being discovered here in tbilisi
7:32 am
george's capital. he won't tell us his real name. we'll call him nikita. until last february, nikita lived in studied in moscow. then he was called up for military service, and he fled. i didn't want to go to war, leaving the country, it was my only chance. i knew the consequences that i'd have to hide from russia for the rest of my life. i'd never be able to return, but i just don't want to kill people. i'm not afraid of dying or landing in prison, but killing people. i can't do that. thousands of kilometers away and you're out of western context on your son. jim is living here for now. he'll show his face. he wants to go public. when the mobilization commenced an autumn 2022,
7:33 am
he was ordered to report to the military ostensibly to confirm his personnel data. but one eagle or showed up, he was inducted on the spot. that same evening, he was to be taken to an army training camp. a few weeks later he was to be sent to the front, eager felt he'd been trapped and decided to escape some off of the sale to me, it was all or nothing. i thought either i'll go to prison for many years because i left my army unit or i'll die somewhere and ukraine, any of your thoughts on even though what a look at it. so i'd rather go to prison. yes. okay, so we'll say i'll follow this to them. i don't want to take the risk of, i'm gonna start as go watch. i don't wanna gamble in this lottery called the war that president lieutenant staging there. but he's getting some of them me, but i this lottery as ego, our son chief costs of war and ukraine is deadly. he says the latest media reports say it's cost tens of thousands, depression lives. currently,
7:34 am
none of the figures can be confirmed. many of those called up left here under pollutants mobilization order were fathers and many came from russia's poorest regions. a few complained to human rights organizations are in social media about the poor conditions and shortages of arms and ammunition. new done the for you. we get lots of reports about the chaos at the front and the noble sometimes nobody knows who the commanding officers are, but it is lead to the some say they were simply dumped in an open field with no idea of what to do. and no leadership of any kind. the, we've heard that conscripts aren't talked anything that the entire training consist of fire and the machine gun. once the news of the human rights activists have noted over a 1000 court proceedings over alleged positions, the actual number of disorders is thought to be much higher. and the general seer of another mobilization still looms. the men who joined the military before the war
7:35 am
have even more to fear, like nikita in georgia. he tells us the military finance does university studies in return, he had to sign on for 3 years of service. after graduating. i sign the contract out of here stupidity. there were many things i wasn't aware of when i started university, the age 20. so i thought, ok, i'll weighs 3 years in the army. but i'll get my degrees. know nikita realizes how no you that was. but many other russians did much the same. they never expected, the tutoring would actually invade ukraine, too long. so it wasn't more of a, let's the financial opportunities for our people are limited, new wages aren't paid. health care is poor mobilization and joining the war effort was the only chance many people had to show up their budgets. one person might have a daughter about to start college sports. another might have taken out
7:36 am
a mortgage. a 3rd might need a car. but now with the war in full swing, it's the question of life and death. ego, or in the key to know that in russia disorders faith, long prison sentences cause enough for the chairs. i don't feel safe in georgia and not because the people here are a meeting or anything as a russian. i've never experienced any negative sentiments from the georgians, but here i am just as afraid of the russian states as ever. sometimes i have nightmares of my old boss knocking at my door and saying, i found the siegel or applied for asylum in context of what was rejected. he appealed and was turned down again. now he's facing deportation to russia. your has no illusions about his future.
7:37 am
media the to remove the continue i can expect, are there prison or ukraine at the front? you know, almost to show some problem in this state media are giving the russians the impression that personnel are in short supply. what you see and men of working age to go to the front of a cell phone that they'll chest and we will use this. but neither ego nikita intend to comply. they're making every effort to stay abroad as long as they can. president protein has not waste the upward age limit for reserve this and also extended the up age for conscription, albania was long considered the poor house of europe. but the country on the, as radix see, has developed into, into, with you. thanks, a huge lead to its natural beauty and long coastlines, one of all being as wonderful pearls as the coon of vine lagoon. but it's

7:42 am
implementation process. a less than one percent of the national budget is set aside for environmental protection. she says, an estimate, albania would need to spend 30 times as much money that the impoverished country lux, back into lagoon corner by the existential threat is grueling for people who make their living here. says that they come on the call because the this you have to have on file as you sit in this lagoon already gave for science years ago. but we did not take it seriously that everything here is coming to an end funding that they, they've gotta deem it the most says the times when, who pull then key laughter, key, little fish alone, go more and more efficient and are quitting blue crap. that's the only thing. now, abundance here. train journeys can sometimes be terribly adult

7:44 am
but i've never actually been to poland. it's exciting because i grew up in east germany. your think i would have been on their minds like that is that so because in the car where the vice so usually kept the berlin based, ukrainian trio show have taken center stage. they are performing a mixture of russian swing and coffee house music. it's a 1st for the band to performing on the rails. that is someone, it's wonderful that people gather around their curious and they listen to us play some of them even dance. it's fantastic. that's why most of the passengers chose the culture train rather than the faster year. a city
7:45 am
tre. absolutely, absolutely, yes, i chose it because of all the entertainment on board clocks find it sounded exciting, much like something might go down here. right now. it's kind of full glory. you could say i thought it might be a bit more fun. a bit more shake, but hey, of the but for other passengers fault, glory hits the spot. summer ukrainian refugees traveling depaul in to meet friends . the it's excellent. it would be great if it were like this all the time. the people are happy, they get on the train with a smile. the train's motto is what connects us more than
