Ah yes, I'm sure those old women were cleverly hiding their assault rifles and military training, and that there wad in fact a balance of power between both groups - the old, unarmed women, and the truck of young armed military men.
I'm not saying they were being awful or anything, I do agree with you overall, just that there's a clear imbalance of power here is all, and even if they aren't pressing they power, it exists.
Even if it were 10 strapping young lads talking to the military fellas there'd still be an imbalance of who has the power between both groups, because one side has guns and knives and knows how to use 'em.
If the women felt threatened they could have simply not approached the Ukrainian soldiers.
