Yes, here you go: https://www.usatoday.com/in-depth/graphics/2023/05/30/from-a-war-zone-to-a-remote-camp-an-illustrated-explanation-of-russias-deportation-of-ukrainians/11477766002/
The quote says literally exactly what the article is saying: that Ukraine is a stepping stone to the rest of Europe (Poland probably being next).
Russia has been reversing victim and offender for this entire war. It is clear the general means this in exactly the sense that Ukraine deserved being invaded in a war of territorial aggression and its people deported. Their ambition does not stop in Ukraine, but they will blame the innocent countries of Eastern Europe for forcing Russia to invade them.
It’s literally Hitler’s playbook, just done by Putin.
This does not describe an extermination camp at all. I guess you're referring to this (I have to guess since you failed to point out exactly what you're referring to):
This isn't even part of that eyewitness account. This is just an NGO alleging this, without pointing to the exact source document. An NGO that doesn't disclose its funding on its website as far as I can see. This isn't even describing a death camp, which is what you were confidently stating is a thing. What am I supposed to do with this?
No it doesn't. He alleges that instigators of the war (meaning not Russia, since he doesn't believe Russia instigated the war), will not stop in Ukraine. He's not referring to Russia, clearly. Given how he answers the "stepping stone" question like that, he obviously thinks that Ukraine is a stepping stone for those western instigators to attack Russia.
I'll paraphrase: Is Ukraine a stepping stone? – Yes, the western warmongers won't stop at Ukraine.
This is obviously what he means.
This is two examples of you misrepresenting sources in one comment. How am I supposed to take you seriously?
It’s sad that you’re so committed to this you’re willing to literally believe anything but the truth. You have literally no reason to doubt any of these accounts but you’ve elected to do so anyway; I don’t know why anyone would want to simp for a murderous madman and his genocidal regime and their war of territorial aggression. Like you haven’t even linked any sources that disagree with me, you’re simply asserting the sources are wrong and that the generals mean exactly the opposite of what they’re saying.
Why? What have they ever done to you to earn your trust? Why do you believe that literally every source reporting these things is wrong, when you have no proof?
I hope you recover from whatever has led you to apologize for the most brutal regimes and worst people on the planet. But that journey will occur without me because I’m not interested in trying to help you realize the truth any more.
I implore you to read this again, seriously. Nobody can be this bad at reading comprehension. Do you actually think he's referring to Russia when he says "I think all kinds of ideologists and instigators of this war will not stop here.". He does not think Russia instigated the war! Are you just utterly incapable of assuming someone else's perspective? Because that would explain a lot.
