This is because Vladimir Putin has absolutely no regard for the lives of Russian citizens.

He'll send a million more if Russians don't make him fall out of a window.

Serious question: do you think any politicians who haven't personally served (and several who have) actually has any regard for any human life other than their own and whomever they may love?

By definition, when you send troops into an armed conflict, it's understood that there will be casualties.

But Russia absolutely stands out compared to the rest of the world, with respect to their disregard for their troops.

It's not even close.
