Foreign nationals traveling to aid Ukraine’s war effort are reportedly being duped into signing indefinite service contracts. The Ukrainian Army has denied such allegations while failing to provide evidence of military contracts stating otherwise.
As the nation’s war with Russia broke out, the International Legion for the Defence of Ukraine was formed, with people from around the globe welcomed – and encouraged – to join the fight. At the beginning of March, Ukrainian President Zelensky announced to his Telegram channel that 16,000 foreigners (the number is now estimated to be 20,000) had volunteered.

There's more on this:
An American who fought in Ukraine warns others “Do not go, it’s a trap”
Now, they made their choice, and they're free to do so, but you are seeing two thugochracies going at it.
We need to stay out of this fight.
Where did you get your sense of morality, from a graphic novel?
There are 40 million people under attack. They are not part of a “thugocracy”.
Stop being so childish.
As for the foreign volunteers, they can leave if they win.
Screw Russia and Putin’s war in Europe.
They aren't worth paying a nickel more at the pump to support, let alone worth risking American lives or WWIII over.
This is proof that listening to the MSM is bad for your health.
Dr. Meade to Scarlett O'Hara.
Who knows if this is even true, the propaganda is so thick on all sides. But if this IS true, what a bunch of dumbasses.
Ditto.
I suspect what's happening is the poseurs are getting sorted from the real combat vets.
We’ve seen this movie before.
Who would think they are not signing up for the duration? How stupid would you have to be not to know this?
Now now don’t upset the boot licking Putin lovers
Zelenskyy has a better claim to being democratically elected than that senile pile of dung occasionally fouling the Oval Office.
Or in less polite terms: GFY. Your agitprop is getting tiresome. Hopefully you're getting paid well for pisting here.
[The Ukraine nationalist, especially the extensive neo-Nazi element of it, are vile human beings as is Zelensky for pandering to them.]
Note that Putin has his own “Nazis” fighting for him, which makes me kinda dubious that he is really interested in fighting Nazis:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Zhoga
Well, Mr. Zhoga is, in a sense, an ex-”Nazi”, because he is dead, courtesy of a Ukrainian bullet. But before he was pushing up sunflowers, he was the commander of the Sparta Battalion:
[The Sparta Battalion is regarded as one of the most effective separatist militias, and has been described as being associated with neo-Nazism in regard to ideology.[5][6][7] The militia is loyal to the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR), one of the self-proclaimed breakaway states located in the Donbas.]
Well then, so he wasn’t a Russian soldier after all, he was a fighter for the DPR. Well, here is what Putin thinks of him:
[Russian President Vladimir Putin [posthumously] awarded him the title of Hero of the Russian Federation.]
So, for as long as the Sparta Battalion exists, I don’t wanna hear no more about how Putin is only in Ukraine to fight “Nazis”. “Nazi” fighting begins at home.
On that one I could agree.
“How stupid would you have to be not to know this?“
If I thought some cause was worth my life I cannot imagine abandoning it before it was finished.
These are not Nazis. Stop reading Marxist Leninist propaganda from Nei Soviet Russia. Now Communist Putin on the other hand, well we know being dead is better than being Red, and to kill a commie for mommy.
“It’s not just a job. It’s an adventure.”
Nah- The Ukrainian government is far to nice to do something like that!
What? The Freeper Badasses can’t leave when things tough?
