Putin is not invoking genetic or phenotypic arguments to my knowledge.

He wants a cultural genocide, not a biological one.

If every Ukrainian tomorrow declared themselves Russian, Putin would be ecstatic. Compare a Dalit declaring himself Brahmin.

Refugees of Indian and African origin aren't being allowed to cross borders or board trains. I presume that is what OP is referring to.

One man's crisis is another opportunity. I wonder how hard it is to enter the Ukraine now and then cross to Europe with no papers as a 'refugee, formerly expat-student.'

> 'refugee, formerly expat-student.'

They want to go back to India, not go stay in another European country. What do you think they are going to do when they arrive in another EU country? They can't stay there as refugee since they have Indian passport and India isn't fighting some war. Also being refugee is no fun either. I can't believe some people feel like there is some fun to walk over to a country without any resource and legal means and stay there as a refugee.

Even if what you are saying is true, what do you expect is the solution? Keep them all in Ukraine and let them die in some war which they have nothing to do with.

>what do you expect is the solution

Arm them and bus them to the frontlines, pour encourager les autres?
