Summary/Abstract: The military destruction of children and youth in Ukraine is foreseen both by the declared goals of Russia's war against the Ukrainian state and the Ukrainian people, in which the entire collective "West" is personified, and by the practice of its conduct. The named goals of denazification and demilitarization denote the Russian understanding of the destruction of any non-Russian people whose marker is the Russian language (denazification) by military suppression of its resistance (demilitarization). The Russian idea that Russia ends where the Russian language ends means, in practice, that the borders of Russia do not end anywhere, since the Russian invaders are nomads in all the spaces of Eurasia available to them, where they are occasionally lucky not to receive decisive military resistance.
