He was prepared to die in a ditch for his country. There can be no greater love than this.
This is just getting so unbearably sad. Reminds me of the tragic losses to the music world 100+ years ago. So senseless. When is the free world going to wake up and take some action and put a stop to this madness? Is Europe going to have to deal with some nuclear disaster? Or is the world going to go on being concened about the football games in Qatar and how many orchestras in England may be cut? Or who plays in the Superbowl? What a world….
How about when the Russian people wake up. Its time they stop putting up with Putins BS.
It’s up to the world.
Well… it is a war, if you are engaged to kill, you are also engaged to die. 21st century and we still lose time and money with this kind of conflict, unbelievable.
don’t forget in your philosophical discussion that the guy wouldn’t be “engaged” (you sound like it was a choice) if russians don’t start this war (not “kind of conflict!”). Unbelievable – yes, agree.
So young, so talented… Russia is a terrorist state, putin and his supporters, their friends-apologists – are all killers.
Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori.
Wilfred Owen exposed this lie over 100 years ago!
Perhaps a poem from Wilfred Owen will change your mind.

The level of Work it takes to be a Ballet Dancer is one thing , but too get too his level takes constant attention too so many things, that’s what he was born too do (Not) kill in war ! All due too a crazy leader , Putin ( his war ) he should fight if he loves killing so much !!!
Such tragedy that an artist would die like this. A true patriot fighting for his homeland. His artistic fire is extinguished due to the invasion of a madman. Too young, too anything! Terrible.
May Putin be stopped, and the world unite soon to end this total disaster!
