There has to be an independent UN investigation report into the mass graves. Ukrainian investigators have a strong national interest in fabricating atrocity propaganda, just like the bullshit "investigations" getting churned out by Israel. We can't just blindly trust either side of the war. The UN is looking into it but I'm not seeing any conclusions.

The sending of own working population into the meat grinder is the more interesting part of their comment. It serves as a counterexample for the claim that Russia's need for workers would prevent them from killing more workers. If that were true, they could have stopped throwing people into the meat grinder at any point in time.

There's quite a difference between sending working age men off to war and just rounding them up for execution.
