The Foreign Legion has been in the news recently and even the state Ukrainian media now can't ignore the allegations made.
It isn't all sunshine and rainbows.
Foreign Fighters have been a large talking point throughout the Russia and Ukrainian War as some say they're foreign fighters fighting for Independence and freedoms and others will say they're hired Mercenaries with some facing the death penalty in Russia and Russian Backed Donetsk Peoples Republic.

I recommend reading the classic WWII satire Catch - 22 by Joseph Heller. There's a character in there called Milo. He's an Air Force mess officer who capitalizes on the war to profit and enrich himself all the while styling himself as a patriot. He even does business with the Germans - I recall one chapter where he sold extra bombs to the allies for one mission to bomb some bridge - all the while having sold anti-aircraft munitions to the Germans defending that very bridge - getting a bonus for each allied aircraft shot down. The author himself was a WWII veteran in the air force. It's hilarious as it is tragic.

@Legitpenguins99 my wife was born in Ukraine. I was there many times, since 2005. Corruption is a real problem in Ukraine. Do you really think that all the money that we are giving to Zelensky's regime is used to fight Russia? In the first line, ukrainians are always without stuff, while some ukrainians are around Europe driving BMW, Mercedes, and Bentley and they are buying villas. How is it possible? I have my personal view. Corruption is blind and without heart. Our governments in Europe are simply crazy. They started a war against Russia, and now our economy collapses. They were able to grow up costs for energy and taxes and to open our countries to the risk of an atomic holocaust. That's insane. In the USA, people should learn something about Biden son's presence. Nobody can start a business there without accepting the corruption, like the official system. I say this because I have all the information to say that. Te rozumiesz?

This person assumes tha Ukrainians mostly steal to sell for money, not because they want their platoon to have the best equipment. 3.) Stealing from the armoury; yes, this is how many armies & cultures in the East Europe work - Russians are WAY worse. 4.) Some commanders of the Ukrainian army are dogshit - similar story in many other armies, especially Eastern European armies. Where is this "unknown Ukraine Foreign Legion figher" from (which country, where did he serve/ work, so we can see what he's "accustomed" to, etc...) I'm glad this is talked about, but the lack of a complete picture CAN paint a wrong picture to masses of amateurs, who are not aware how even actual developed (NATO) armies often work under pressure & in the field.

Do not be embarrased. Ukraine was fighting to change, to be free and to be what it really is, a long time ago. And since he began to win that fight to free himself from Russian influence, that's when Mosco has decided to invade. Ukraine will not change overnight. It will take a while, a generation or two. But it's on the way. And that's what matters. Everything will be fine. Vse bude Ukraina! and I have suffered the incompetence of idiots. But I am sure that one day it will be better, because I know that there are people like you. Smrt okupantam!

When this war ends and over 1Mio people get demobilized, all of those who were affected by this kind of corruption will go back home with PTSD and access to weapons - and they will see all of the new cars that some adminstrators/commanders/Pharmacy owners will drive. They will come back and see the fancy vacations these people can take on social media, the new flats they bought etc. And they will know that most of that came in during the war and so was a result of corruption. I am still outraged at how our initial medical supply (over 20k€) intented for a charkiw hospital in march got stolen/arrested at the border and then ended up in a few pharmacies in Lwiw. I can not beging to imagie the rage that will unload itself onto these people after the conflict cools down...

I have few questions.. How does a country that is neighbour to one of world nuclear power, goes from being PRO Russian to Anti Russian in just one day? How does a country with more then 40 million people elects a COMEDIAN with no political experience at all? How is that even possible? Elects a guy that is leading them into war with Russia? No matter the coast, that war should have been avoided, it is basically a doom for Ukraine, anybody that loves Ukraine wouldn't lead it into war with Russia, who would in their sane mind go to war with Russia. Not to mention that your two countries are bordering each other. Americans waging war in middle east is nothing to compare to this, there were no wars on American soil recently, but America fought all the wars there were on international level. That is the point, USA wants every other country in the world to fight each other, so the war doesn't come to their soil. And while others are fighting, guess who will sell arms and ammo to both sides often. Who is buying Russian gas for normal prices and then selling it to Europe for 2 or 3 times more? This is just a roleplay game between few leading people in the world, and the ones who get hurt are ordinary people. Ordinary people who elected a comedian and fell to American influence to go to war with Russia. Its unbelievable what the media is doing, Maidan coup, how it all happened with just few people, but the power of Media has gone to insane levels nowadays. That is so American, divide and conquer is their role model.

@@nenad7653 The first question: you first need to know what you are talking about. If your information is crap, if you don't speak Ukrainian or Russian and don't know Ukraine, then it's logical that you ask those questions. But parts of false premises fruit of Russian propaganda. Many years listening to Russian media in English but not a day listening to Ukrainian media. You don't know the history of Ukraine or anything at all. That's the problem. That is why they had said that there was a donkey there, and now you are surprised that she is a cow. You just don't know anything. How does each country choose the politicians it elects? Zelensky is a comedian, and he's very good, and very smart. Have you elected better politicians in your country? I don't think so. Macron in France had political experience? and many others in other countries? what are you talking about? And what are you talking about? Do you know what speech Zelensky won with? you don't know anything at all. It wasn't Zelensky who invaded Russia. He studies a little- Before speaking, study!. If you don't know what you're talking about, shut up. Are you going to avoid war with me at all costs? I am going to invade your country.... Russia invaded the Ukraine,

The one thing to say about corruption is let’s not be blind and hypocritical. In Canada, for example, a functioning democracy with apparently no or little corruption, the $20m gathered through crowdfunding in support of the truckers is still being withheld illegally by the government a year later, and the peaceful protests itself was dispersed violently with guns. Also guns were planted by RCMP at Coutts , Alberta to discredit the protest movement. Corruption is a sin known to us all. So let’s be humble

@@elektrotehnik94 what you say is true. I think the reason why it’s so refreshing to see this type of reporting is because EVERYTHING in our western media is so ridiculously pro Ukrainian that they would never speak of or reveal any corruption or wrongdoing on the part of the Ukrainians. These interviews are not afraid to shed light on the strengths and weaknesses on both sides. This person did speak quite a bit of Ukrainian problems, however that would be his personal experience since that is who he is serving with. The little that he did know of the Russians he freely talked about. Sometimes we are also willing to speak more of a certain party’s weaknesses when people have wrongly made them out to have no wrongs. Just my view of it I guess.

Interesting- regarding Azov - Andriy Biletsky, the Azov Batallion's first commander and later a National Corps parliamentarian, previously led the neo-Nazi paramilitary organisation "Patriot of Ukraine, and once stated in 2010 that it was the Ukrainian nation's mission to "lead the white races of the world in a final crusade... against Semite-led Untermenschen [subhumans?." The other thing I saw regarding Bucha was pictures of many of the dead wearing white armbands showing they were pro Russian so why would the Russians kill them. Your guest is correct the Ukrainians do outnumber the Russians in infantry- some cases 6 to 10 to 1 however the Russians outnumber the Ukrainians in artillery 10 to 1 However Russian mobilisation of reserves has fixed that problem. Regarding corruption even CNN admits only 40% is getting to troops at the front. All the best Lewis Sydney 🇦🇺

I can believe a whole lot of the things he said. But the moment he started talking about i never seen Russian Troops be professional, i knew in which Direction this goes. Russian Corruption, incompetent Russian Army Personal, drinking Looting i can believe that all with out a doubt, but he never seen Russian Forces be professional. Yeah comn. And to him all pro Russian Ukrainian seem to be Spies, trying to avoid the topic of treatment of Ukrainians who are Pro Russian by hardcore Ukrainians fanatics. I mean imagine bying on the occupied side in Russia or in Ukrainian Territory and being in Opposition to your current State. You could easily be accused of Spying and murdered. So any claim from Russia or Ukrainian that the Population of certain Areas Support them, Is ridiculous.

Yer a "flerf," uh? Okay. Good. There's a little question I got that no flerf has been able to answer. Maybe you might take a shot at it. You see, I thought it would be a fantastic souvenir to have a piece of the dome over the earth at "The Edge." So, I got in the Yellow Pages and started calling travel agencies to book a trip to, you know, "The Edge." ...Care to guess what happened? (...um. Actually, it should be quite the mystery to ANY "flerf" that this could possibly happen, shouldn't it?) Now, that's not my question, but why did this happen? I mean, how 'bout you? Surely, you and other "flerfs" not only have been to "The Edge" many times, but probably have extremely lucrative travel agencies, you know, specializing in offering only this very thrilling adventure, uh? -- I mean, since no one else does. Right? You folks surely have a huge monopoly in this niche market, surely! Hold on: Le'me git a pen and paper here: Okay: What is the phone number of your travel agency, or one you can recommend, so I can go get the souvenir of my dreams? That's my question. Btw, any chance you sell pieces of the dome?

1.) Even in US command, stealing from other units to supply your own units (to fight with stolen equipment further on) in war conditions was not uncommon. 2.) This person assumes tha Ukrainians mostly steal to sell for money, not because they want their platoon to have the best equipment. 3.) Stealing from the armoury; yes, this is how many armies & cultures in the East Europe work - Russians are WAY worse. 4.) Some commanders of the Ukrainian army are dogshit - similar story in many other armies, especially Eastern European armies. Where is this "unknown Ukraine Foreign Legion figher" from (which country, where did he serve/ work, so we can see what he's "accustomed" to, etc...) I'm glad this is talked about, but the lack of a complete picture CAN paint a wrong picture to masses of amateurs, who are not aware how even actual developed (NATO) armies often work under pressure & in the field.

Wow, extremely disheartening to hear of the extreme corruption going on in Ukraine. But not surprising at all. I spent a month last year driving through Ukraine and can confirm that corruption is commonplace. It's very much a culture of only looking out for yourself with relatively little empathy for anybody else, even in wartime. Those characteristics get a society nowhere, as seen with every extremely corrupt country in the world.

Some talk about it in a very light, almost comical way, while others are obviously still distressed. Still others refuse to talk about it at all. There is absolutely no way that you could tell if someone has actually been in combat just by hearing them talk about it.

Thanks for the upload willy, this is not only important current events you share but also its important history or at least will be one day. Somebody else mentioned in the comments that the videos you and others upload will survive you, its true, videos like these are not only important to watch to try to get some truth from, but will be important for understanding these events later on as well. The main stream media may report some of what's going on but the way in which they do it is either heavly biased one way or the other or has a very misguiding representation of what is going on. Something as simple as what you mentioned in the past about being hundreds of miles away from any sort of fighting but wearing full kit which gives an impression that the fighting is right around the corner, sorta like a weather man in a storm bracing against the wind making it seem as if he's about to blow away in the storm while in the background a mother and her kid walk calmly past him. Anyways thanks again for another upload. Much appreciated.

Hello! I'm from Ukraine. Thank you soldiers! God bless you! And yes, we have a lot of corrupt and incompetent commanders, this is the legacy of the USSR, and the difficult life after its collapse, and different culture. We have right now new generation younger 35 y.o. without corruption. I hope that our international legion will be like the French, a separate professional military unit of high level with artillery and such. We want to be like all Western and progressive non-Western countries in the military, culture, economy, science, etc. And this is the reason for the war on our land. Unfortunately, we pay a high price, and you, who come from afar to protect our country and its thirst for positive changes, pay an even bigger price. Thanks again to the foreign defenders. Thanks to journalists and media persons for covering this problem. God bless you!

>get rid of the legacy of the USSR In the Soviet Union Ukraine was one of the richest parts of all the Union. Probably only Russia and may be Baltics were richest. Now Ukraine is a failed and corrupted country which chose stupid nationalism and olygarchy instead of development.

@@pinkpunk7084 Thanks to the national youth, the country is still on the map. If you don't believe it, watch the Russian channels with subtitles, and you will find out what they plan to do with us. As for the oligarchs, they appeared just after the collapse of the union and divided the richest republic, so show me at least one Ukrainian-speaking or pro-Ukrainian oligarch. And how do you think people who were excluded from capitalist relations and private economy, without influence and knowledge, could cope with such a challenge? And in the Baltic countries, just so you know, the right to private property and activity was preserved, unlike Ukraine during the times of the USSR.

@@sata1938 Funniest shiet i read all day. There is no ''good VS evil'' in war. War is a continuation of a political agenda. Putin considered NATO expansion a threat to Russia and so he attacked before he was, in his mind, encircled. Whatever the reason volunteers may have to fight, there is no right side in the war except for one's subjective opinion of what a ''right side'' is.

If putin wants countries to ally with russia maybe he has to change tactics of pilliging and forcefully connecting them to the russian world. And as you heard in the video, the man's reason to fight is to stop russia in ukraine rather than in his own country. He didnt choose the side he was forced in this war.
