Their own country has a Southern border that needs to be defended.

Something to consider:

MOSCOW, March 3. /TASS/. None of the mercenaries the West is sending to Ukraine to fight for the nationalist regime will enjoy the right of combatants under international humanitarian law, Russian Defense Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov said.

“I wish to make an official statement that none of the mercenaries the West is sending to Ukraine to fight for the nationalist regime in Kiev can be considered as combatants in accordance with international humanitarian law or enjoy the status of prisoners of war,” Konashenkov stressed.

He warned that all foreign mercenaries, detained in Ukraine, would be brought to justice on criminal charges.

If private citizen Americans wanted to go to our own Southern border and assist ICE, could they do that?
I doubt it, w/o being at least ‘deputized’ first.
What gives us or any foreigner the right to pop up in the Ukraine and ask for a gun there? Zelensky should be careful he’s not welcoming “Russians with a plan” into his fighting forces.

Not only are there 16,000 foreign fighters defending Ukraine, many US ammo companies are sending Ukraine bullets and other supplies.

[EXPERTS FEAR DANGEROUS PUTIN CLOSING IN ON ‘UNWINNABLE WAR’ WITH ‘NO OFF-RAMP’]


Holy clickbait headline, Batman. There’s always an off-ramp. If internal ructions arise, he will withdraw to deal with his enemies.

The amusing thing about Hollywood productions is the idea that foreign wars unify the population. That is the opposite of the truth. War abroad requires peace at home, because war requires unevenly-distributed sacrifice and the demographics hurt the most tend to scream bloody murder. That is why after being bushwhacked and then defeated by the Japanese during the Russo-Japanese War, the Russians backed off instead of trying to take Tokyo and execute the Emperor. If they had put their backs into it, Russia could have conquered Japan.

Russia’s problem was internal turmoil. In fact, that internal turmoil continued to cause problems while it fought WWI, leading ultimately to the October Revolution. Putin is looking abroad precisely because his enemies at home are prostrate at his feet, not because they are lunging for his throat.

Putin’s not a dumb guy. He has feelers out all the time. If he feels revolution is in the air, he’ll retreat to Russia and focus on killing his internal enemies. There will be other opportunities to go after Ukraine.
