The article does not explain what the motivations are for the blockade, who is responsible or why a hunger strike would be egfective against someone who hates Ukranians enough to trap them in a foreign country. I would think the goal in trapping them is to starve them to death. A hunger strike would be counter-productive if so. Also, Slovakia is somehow involved, but their relevance is also not explained.
This article presumes the reader is already completely familiar with the story including the nuances at play. Reading this article only makes the entire scenario even more confusing. I want to care, but there is simply not enough information presented to form an opinion on any of it.
