Volodymyr Zelensky has signed a decree formally withdrawing Ukraine from the Ottawa Convention on anti-personnel landmines. The move coincided with the exit from the treaty by countries along NATO's eastern flank, including Poland and the Baltics. Sputnik asked leading Russian and US military experts about the move's likely consequences.

    “Orcs” were based on asiatic features, similar to the Mongol armies. The association with “orcs” is based on ethnicity, driving an image of an ugly, warlike species with no regard for life.
