Who Is Yevgeny Prigozhin And Why Putin Needs Mercenaries To Fight In Ukraine | Wagner Group

- Who is Yevgeny Prigozhin, the man known as 'Putin's Chef' and the head of the Wagner Group? What is his role in the Ukraine conflict? Russia is expected to redirect thousands of mercenaries and volunteers, including hardened fighters, from wars on other continents to Ukraine. Kyiv also has its own foreign legion that allows foreign fighters to join the battle. Since Putin launched his attack, both Ukraine and Russia have boasted of staggering numbers of foreign volunteers and mercenaries willing to join the biggest conflict in Europe since the Second World War.
On this week's Crux Decode, Zakka Jacob discusses how Foreign Fighters are changing the course of Putin's war.

The 10 year war the Soviet Union fought in afghanistan was against the Mujahideen which included foreign fighters from Islamic countries,the northern alliance led by Ahmad shah Masood and Abdul Rashid Dostum as well as fighters from the Pashtun community who later formed the Taliban.They were funded by wealthy Arab countries as well as the US.
It is not correct for the presenter to say that the war was fought between the USSR and the taliban.
Astoundingly ignorant of the man.
SOS from Russia: Goodwill people! Every day brings new victims. FORCE NATO to CLOSE the SKY OVER UKRAINE. This is the only way to stop Putin. Otherwise, you will be the next victim of his aggression! Putin is a WORLDWIDE CRIMINAL but don't be afraid of a nuclear strike from his side - he cannot do it alone, and the top militaries around him have families and want to live. It's just a threat on his part. He uses your fear to prevent military aid to Ukraine. BY NOT CLOSING the SKY OVER Ukraine NATO becomes an ACCOMPLICE of Putin's CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY
Same goes for the proxy war in Ukraine pushed a by the usa and nato.
You have to remember they say it that way because they get paid for it.
I learned this from Rambo years ago.
It's the S.A.S. not sas Duffus. Only former military service personal are allowed to join the international Ukrainian legion also called the Mozart group. Others work in logistic, combat first aid, and humanitarian support roles.

Fck Ukraine
Heroiam Slava!
Mercenaries won´t change much in this war. The best of them could be used for special operations, the rest is either used as cannonfodder or for tasks with low complexity. I have read statements from the US military attachee to Ukraine, that said that all who apply are thoroughly vetted and only a small fraction of the applicants are then eventually picked to serve in Ukraine and for no pay. That means only very small numbers will actually fight for the Ukrainian army. This war will be mainly fought by conscripts and professional soldiers.
The person with Evils thought when died their soul shall be in hell for punishment.
@True Heir of India yes
all volunteers on the Ukrainian side were enrolled in the regular army.
@True Heir of India very
Correct. Especially in the empty expanses of the Donbass it is tanks and artillery that call the shots. Special forces are good at house-to-house, recce and behind the lines sabotage.
Slava Ukraine !
GOD WILL PROTECT THOSE FIGHTING FOR UKRAINE. PEOPLE CAN'T SIT TO SEE FELLOW HUMANS SUFFERING FROM AN UNJUST INVASION. GOD IS SEEING THOSE FIGHTING FOR UKRAINE THROUGH.
These dictators and autocrats make the world hell. Their dreams & ambitions are big. Very crooked people and always think of incursion. They look honest in appearance but in reality, it is not so. Very bad people, indeed.

@Sasikumsrkb,
Very well said, and insightful comment from you. I completely agree.
As you look around the world and take inventory of these authoritarian dictatorial paranoid autocracies there are many common traits they all share.
Paranoia, insecurity, the absolute necessity to govern by intimidation, and fear.
Secrecy, the hording of the nation's wealth, the take over and claim to their own citizen's hard work, and company's and corporations, the immediate separation of elite rulers and the working class, and the maniacal need to expand their reach to control others or other nations along with a psychopathic ego needing constant attention just to name a few.
The citizens are always oppressed. The citizens must work extremely hard for very little reward. The truth of what is really going on in the world is concealed and hidden.
The elite ruling class lives like monarchs while the citizenry starves for basic necessities. Education is restricted to what can serve or benefit the dictator, and keep him in power.
It's amazing a nation full of people could ever tolerate such things. They of course wouldn't tolerate for a minute if they had the taste of real freedom, and had their own rights to self determination.
These very elements are why Russia will never win any war against a western nation or a free Ukraine.
In addition, you can include the former Soviet states that today are independent free nations. They know. They remember.
They'll never live like that again no matter what Russia or Putin does.
God bless the free nations of the world. Hopefully all citizens of the Earth are aware of these things and shall one day be free to be who, and what they want to be, and live the way they want to live.
Slava Ukraine! They shall be victorious no matter what!
Your news reader incorrectly asserted Russia fought the Taliban, in Afghanistan. First, it was the USSR that fought in Afghanistan. Second, the most significant militia group that fought the Soviets was HiG Hizbullah Islami Gulbuddin. The CIA supplied resources to the militia groups through Pakistan's InterService Intelligence Agency ISI, and HiG was their favourite, so they got the lion's share of that CIA aid.
However HiG and ISI had a falling out. Gulbuddin Hekmatyar, the leader of HiG was an educated man. His militia was the militia that attracted educated Afghans. The other militia groups were largely lead by illiterates. The ISI found that this made the group hard to control, after the Soviets were kicked out. So they stopped supporting them. They sponsored a brand new group, the Taliban, lead by illiterates, who were more maleable and easily controlled.
While individual men, who later joined the newly created Taliban, may have fought the Soviets, the Taliban did not, because they did not exizt at that time.
its very distracting when a presenter is asked to say words he's never heard before and continually mispronounces.
True. But we have to make allowances and judge by content, no?
SAS is an abbreviation for Special Air Service which in common usage is pronounced sass; as in "Don't sass me, boy!" or Saskatchewan.
@Ben Dover Or you could get CNN, MSNBC and Fox.
He gives the Russians waaaayy more credit than they deserve for the very little they did in the US 2016 election. He's either ignorant or a lying leftist. No amount of money could have won the election for the HildaBeast. She is flat out evil that's why she is intensely hated except by her same species in the media.
I use to be in the Canadian army but I never went to war and only soldiers who have war experience are accepted in Ukrainian army. There's already about 700 canadians soldiers in Ukraine maybe more. They create a special regiment for Canadian's soldiers. Many soldiers come also from USA, UK, Australia, Germany, France and even Japan. The real fact is that soldiers come from at least 40 different countries. But also doctors, nurses, policemen, paramedics, firefighter etc. all volunteers. Canada, USA, UK and other countries are training Ukrainian soldiers to use new weapons. Tanks, armored vehicles, artillery, missiles, drones etc. They also train pilots on F-15, F-16, F-18, Rafales and other fighter planes used by NATO.
Why are you interfering?
There is no training on NATO aircraft. The California Air National Guard has been training Ukrainian pilots in tactics and technical combat skills for 30 years now but using their own aircraft. We just delivered the 20-25 MiG-29s that we had bought from Romania when the USSR collapsed.
@@wolfswinkel8906 This is a fight of good vs. evil. Of democracy vs autocracy. Russia is trying to upend the global order here and Ukraine would not be the last nation they hit if they won. Go lookup Heartland Theory here on RUclips and see for yourself; it's Russias old but still basically followed geopolitical plan. Moldova would be next if they had their way and then the Baltics.
@@wolfswinkel8906 why did Russia interfere in Korea and Vietnam?
Do what you want but that ain't gonna change the outcome of this war.
Just because few British and Americans went to Ukraine doesn’t mean foreign fighters are rushing to go to Ukraine.
There are Indians, Mexicans, Brazilians, Belarusians, Chechens, and elsewhere and from all over NATO.
@@blakebrown534

@@blakebrown534 Indians as in...Red Indians? There are NO Indians fighting or in combat support roles in Ukraine. As per documented and confirmed report, there was just 1 such individual who was trying to return when last heard of. This is just a Western narrative that 50 to 60 odd countries have poured in their fighters for the defence of Ukraine. This "freedom, democracy and liberty" toy is for self pleasure of Western politicians who want to perpetuate their stronghold.

Были теноры, басы, даже короли попсы,
Теннисисты, дирижёры, фигуристы и боксёры.
А сегодня не нужны… Выходцы с такой страны.
А в России были все - Мерседесы и Порше,
И Самсунг, и Адидас, и Старбакс, и Эйрбас,
Были Лего, Прада, Гуччи, Ролекс, Майкрософт и Пуччи.

Пока Пу рулит в стране, импорта в Россию нет.
А российское жульё в мире раскупило всё-
И нью-йоркские квартиры и ирландские трактиры.
Винодельни, самолёты,
Острова и вертолёты.
Яхты, виллы и дворцы прикупили удальцы.
Даже в Челси клуб футбольный
взяли весь пакет контрольный.
Только толку что с того?
Ведь сейчас лишат всего.
Как же это вышло так? Что один больной чудак.

Почему не ясно вам?- Он убийца и тиран.
Ваши уголь, нефть и газ прям сейчас бомбят Донбасс,
Киев, Харьков и Херсон
Убивает злобно он.
Он Россию бросил, гад, лет на сорок пять назад.
Пока правит Пу в стране.
Будет жить народ в говне…

I love this poem!
There are fighters from Brazil, India, Mexico, a ton from Belarus, and Chechens, on top of your NATO countries. They do their best to weed out those w/o experience. I think there's far more than a couple hundred of them.
Your characterisation of foreign fighters helping Ukraine is completely wrong, why? Did you not research this before you made it up??? The only foreign fighters allowed to join the Ukraine defence must have previous battlefield experience, they are vetted for the knowledge, experience and ability to help. The language barrier is not such an issue as the foreign regiments include bilingual Ukrainians which solves this problem, also there are a lot of Ukrainians are able to speak and understand English. Also, it is kind of silly to say only a few hundred, when there is evidence that at a minimum at least 1000 foreign fighters have joined the Ukrainian army, so why did you say just a few hundred??? Who's side are you on??? Do your homework next time, as your distorting the truth, with this low quality hit piece. The foreign fighters are not their for selfies and it is dumb to suggest so. This was a pretty poor piece of journalism.
Not to mention Irish and Finnish volunteers are destroying the Russians in Kharkiv. English-speaking volunteers are also doing a great job at holding the southern line against Russian advances too.
Hahah keep crying thinking Russia is losing the war
they had to prove previous military experience NOT battlefield experience
Incensed. Relax Rambo.
As usual w/ war, there are conflicting reports on the # of foreign volunteers joining Ukraine's side. In 1 instance it was 5,000 which might be the more realistic #. There have been plenty of individual stories of these people I've seen from North America, Australia, all of Europe & some places in Asia (Japan, South Korea & even Thailand), so it's definitely a thing.
Soldier of Fortune magazine back in the early '70's openly ad vert for mercenaries.
What motivates a foreign fighter in Ukraine is the same thing that motivated every allied soldier and resistance member in world ward 2, it's the desire of good men and women to defeat evil, such as the defeat of a fascist dictator and war criminal like Hitler or Putin, who for whatever warped reason decides to invade peaceful countrys and commit war crimes against civilian populations or to decorate soldiers who rape and execute civilians for kicks.
it would be great if Ukrainian prayed for themselves and addressed security concerns of Russian rather than supporting nazism, if USA has not allowed the installation of Soviet missile in Cuba 1962,and don't allow any nation of south America to have military alliance with any Foreign power, Russian is doing same, if you destroy your nation for flattering America you will get what you deserve. USA left their ally to die in Afghanistan, Vietnam, Kurds territory, Iraq and Syria, Ukraine is just new addition to list
You just don't know who is evil there. Here is an American fighter for Donbass
ruclips.net/video/r7CPliHhGTs/видео.html
So it was never the money that motivated mercenaries? LMAO
Nato is not international community... It is axis of evil.
Neo-nazis, installed by US sponsored coup, killed 1500 children and 16.000 civillians in Dombas, expelled 500.000 Russian refugees from Ukraine before the war, and banned Russian language by law aldough it is spoken by 65% of population.

The huge Yuzivska shale gas deposit in the Donbas (1.09 - 4 trillion metric metres of shale gas) - is the second-largest shale gas deposit in Europe. The EU was interested in buying gas from Ukraine in order to diversify its suppliers and cut dependence on Russian gas. Ukraine has extensive gas storage facilities and pipelines, close to the EU, and such an arrangement would make a large dent in Gazprom's (Putin's) profits. Similarly, Crimea has large offshore gas deposits that Putin wanted. This war is all about Putin's Gazprom profits. That's why they are pulling back to defend Donbas. That's why Russia was funding the “separatists."
thanks for that info as it all makes sense now about why this is happening
There is also large oil deposits in the Black Sea. Exxon explored this back in 2010 and was awarded a contract by the Ukrainian government to further explore. Shell was awarded a similar contact in Western Ukraine and found natural gas deposits as well as oil. Gasprom offered to explore and drill for less, but then came 2014 and the Maidan Square protests, Yanukovich was forced out and those platforms and explorations pulled out of Ukraine. There is an abundant amount of gas and oil in Ukraine alone to supply Europe. There are other sources such as Israel and their platforms in the Mediterranean. Their gas findings alone can more than offset Russian gas in Western Europe.
Gazprom (Putin) will lose more money over this war than they will gain from seizing the gas deposits in the Donbas and Crimea.
Ukraine made the Donbas separatists by shelling since 2015. Below is what the AZOV stand for ruclips.net/video/wu2tXG2Yo-g/видео.html

In 60 AD Apostle Saint Andrew traveled to the area of Kiev, preached, and said, one day a great city would be built here with many churches to the glory of God. Today there is a church to Saint Andrew in Kiev. The peoples in the area were Slavic. Kyi, Shchek and Khoryv, three brothers and the sister Lybid founded Kiev in 482 AD, Kiev was named after the older brother Kyi. Kiev the older brother was King. Herodotus wrote that Hercules had founded this land.
The Rus were Viking tribes that settled peacefully in Kiev as far back as 750 AD with the Slavs there, 400 years before Moskva existed. The name Russia, coming from the city Moskva, has no connection to the RUS. Russia coming from Moskva started with Batu Kahn much later as a vasal under Mongolian rule. All the early Czars were Mongolian and of no connection to the RUS. The Rus were with the Slavs to the south in Kiev. Moskva were Finnish Urgic Tribes; Mosk means cow and Va water, which are Finnish names. There was no RUS there. The ethnic background of Moskva is Finnish-Urgic and Mongolian. The Rus developed the religion, city Kiev, alphabet, churches, and had its saints. The founder of Kievian Rus (800) or the Rus was a Viking named Askold or Oskold (Norse) from Sweden; not Oleg as in the Russian story. Kievian Rus exists long Before Novgorod and Oleg’s arrival there. Askold is the Slavic name. Oskold, the first King of Kievian Rus was in Kiev before Oleg in Novgorod. Oskold had 200 ships and 20,000 warriors. Oskold was baptized in Constantinople (128 years before Volodymyr) and sent the first bishop back to Kiev. Oskold and Dir were the first Dynasty of Kievian Rus. Askold rules from the 40-60s and Dir to the 80s. Askold is buried in Kiev and the first Kievian Christian King & Dynasty. Oleg followed coming from Sweden through Novgorod and was a pagan. Russia as named today started in the city of Moskva over 400 years later after Kievian Rus or Rus. From Kiev, the capitol of Rus, Kievian culture was spread, much like the Greeks Hellenized the known world, or like the British anglicized the world by the English language. This process does not make Moskva to become RUS in as much as Persian are not Greek. How we are misled by a name; Russia. The capitol of the RUS has always been Kiev. There is no other RUS and no RUS in Moskva. Many say Ukraine began recently; but the culture of the RUS is Kievian RUS, both culture and ethnic background. Ukraine is a name given by Poland meaning outer lands. The land of the RUS before the Mongolian invasion was very large. The name RUS is a Norse name which means men that row; there are no men that row in Moskva. So Moskva adopted the name Russia while being a Mongolian vassal, essentially traitor to the RUS; and all the Czars were Mongolian-Finnish. The Culture of the Mongolian was centralized power, and that cultural imprint was passed on to present day Russia. Ukraine’s real name should be Kievian RUS, or Kievskarus! Russia began in Moskva by Batu Kahn and Novgorod conquered much later, still no connection to the Rus.
Putin & Lavrov should be ashamed of themselves, the USSR was an occupation; it never had the status of a sovereign state and due process of law that would be associated with a free society. Even today the mentality of the gulag exists. There is no freedom of press and speech, people are arrested for speech, there is no due process of law, and the religion is state run making it a totalitarian theocracy. As such, it did not deserve to exist in a free world; and history has shown such totalitarian organizations fail over time and author in many gulags. The true culture of Russia is Finno-Ugric and Mongolian, having nothing to do with the RUS (Kievian), expect borrowed as in the sense of Hellenized or Anglicized "forms" as a comparative reference. The centralized form of Russian politics is a very Mongolian imprint on culture. The actions of Putin seem to be another Mongolian invasion of Kiev; here I suggest as to the correct metaphor. I believe so. Putin & Lavrov insistence to have purview over eastern Europe also seems like paying tribute to the Mongolian Horde. Moskva started as an agglomeration of Finnish tribes, combining a Finnish name meaning cows water and developed by Mongolian culture. Mosk means cow and Va means water. The RUS are men that row, Vikings, Norse, established Kiev 400 years before (750 AD) Moskva even thought to exist. The name Russia for current nation is totally inappropriate. The current Russia started in Moskva; how misleading is the name Russia coming from Moskva that has no connection to the RUS. All the lands should be returned to Kiev; the West of Russia to Finland, and the East to Mongolia. Russia’s place on the globe appears as a temporary aberration in my view. To use threats of Nukes publicly strikes at the heart as adolescent behaviour; surely any nation or person that issues such threats and being an ally to such while not even having war imposed on them is not fit to rule. This would include allies of Russia. Oh yes, I remember, Russia didn't invent the bomb, they stole it in the 1940's and gave it to Kurchatov. Russia struggles with an identity crisis since its beginnings unoriginal to the ethnic groups. Its errors are numerous, 50 million killed by Stalin in WW2, allied to the Nazis to kill the Poles for their defeat in WW2, Holodomor where millions of Ukrainians were killed and grain stolen, and constant antagonist with Europe. We even have the Holy Mother announcing Russia’s errors at Fatima. Russia is a Mongolian culture and all the first Czars were Mongolian and Batu Kahn is the author.
Oskold was the grandson of Ragnar the king of Sweden, his name is old Norse and spoke old Norse, the name Rus is old Norse, he settled peacefully in Kiev and the Slavs made him king, he brought Christianity to Kiev with his son dir...his burial mound is where St Nicholas church is built, Oleg wasn’t even in Novgorod when this happened, and Oleg is not a Rus nor old Norse name. The Slavs called Oskold the name Askold. After came Dir, Oleg was a pagan who assassinated Dir, Oskold becomes the first dynasty...later when the line of kings get to Vladimir, he is captured at a trading post by the Mongols, the post is called Moskva, and the king killed. Moskva as a city was a Mongolian invention, and Novgorod becomes a part of that Russia by conquest, although having nothing to do with the Rus. Oskold line is Ragnar, ironside, Oskold from the King of Sweden Ragnar. Oleg is via Rurik coming much later. The accounts of Oskold are within the time, Al Mamun an Arab writer of the time wrote of Oskold, the Russian chronicles come hundreds of years later. In much the same way accounts of relevant history are better understood by those of the times, much like the Bible, dating to the original times makes the account authentic. The Russian chronicles are merely a tale and inaccurate.
Kiev was a city over 1000 years before Russia even existed. Kiev was Kievian Rus before Novgorod and when Oleg arrived. Putin is kidding himself if he thinks any part of Ukraine belongs to Russia. We can see that Israel belongs to the Jews, similarly all the lands around Kiev of Kievian Rus belong to Kiev as a single nation and city state. Russia's beginnings are a wanting child begun as a captive insurgency having nothing of its own; a captive state that was reeking in servitude to Mongolia and invented by Mongolia. The entire culture of Russia from Moscow is Mongolian centralized power, a pagan culture of no empathy and Christianity. The Christianity is tainted as a state religion or theocracy and politicized. History is often obscured by being written by the ones in charge. The history of Ukraine has been obscured by the Soviet Occupation and cultural appropriations. Moscow in an attempt to appropriate a history not its own, rewrote the narrative of history to cover up its compromised origins; Kiev and Ukraine is a history much older and more civilized; making contributions to civilization. Russian despotism becomes the blueprint, foundation & model for every despot nation, look at its allies; the error of its ways has spread throughout the globe; much like the message from the Holy Mother at Fatima. Those that are sympathetic to Russian atrocities can find similarities in their own histories. Ukraine has a democracy at a local level Moscow never had and fears. Russian boundless ignorance is a type often found in the poorest of nations, and usually the poorest have a history of the hardest tyrants over them that also inflict poverty, physical and spiritual, on others they attempt to subjugate, a reflection of their own lives, an abomination of desolation.
Askold was in Constantinople in 860 and Oleg arrived in Novgorod not until 862. The Arabs referred to Askold as the Slavic King or King of the Slavs which he had been for a while. Pontius says Askold brings Christianity to Kiev from Constantinople and a bishop. Ragnar the Norse King of Sweden was born in 767 AD, his son Bjorn ironside was born in 796 AD, and grandson Oskold (Askold) was born in 820 AD. Askold arrived in Kiev in 840 and had a son Dir, Both become King and the first Christian dynasty. Askold dies and gets a burial mound in a park in Kiev. Dir follows as King. Dir is assassinated by Oleg who is a pagan. Nobody knows who Rurik is or who the father is . Oleg is a generation away from Askold. Olga of Kiev builds a church on Askold’ s burial grounds. Pontius of Constantinople says Askold brings a Bishop and Christianity to Kiev. Russia much later is a Mongolian invention...............
Yea, and Joseph of Arimathea went to Glastonbury in England and St Brendan discovered America and lots of other nice fables get taken as real history by nice people who enjoy fables🙂
Plenty Plenty ex soldiers and just ordinary people will go to fight for Ukraine FREEDOM IS THE REASON... not a too difficult concept to grasp ??
There is few Slavic soldiers in this war from the big city's of Russia. The reason is that Putin is afraid of getting to many body bags back and the mothers of Russia starts to protest.
Most Russians will never see body bags because Russia doesn't care to pick up their dead soldiers. They tell those relatives lies about their loved ones.
Wagners are medicine of Azov
Peace is better than war.

The Russians don’t apply Geneva Convention rules to anyone else, they probably won’t apply them to foreign fighters. (Who should be commended for their bravery and courage).
And did America apply to the Geneva Conventions in war after war? Consistency matters. Can't cherry pick when to not commit war crimes like in Vietnam, Afghanistan and Iraq.
That's odd because they have been taking POW.....maybe you should tell them to stop?....commended for their bravery? why? They are unlawful combatants and they will go to a military trial.
Geneva convention .... another joke. Like human rights.... on paper, justice, honor, logical, humane, NORMAL.... but in reality, a joke too.

It's clear everyone knows how Russia operates, it's no secret. The trouble only started because of Russian agitators going in and stirring up trouble
The more foreign soldiers coming to Ukraine, the more helpful. My heartfelt thanks to those foreigners fighting for Ukraine!
They are unpaid volunteers for Ukraine. They are fighting because some of them have relatives in Ukraine. The Wagner Group is a private paid army.

Eh from Canada , The offer to help is limited to military and medical experience only. Due to shortage of weapons and ammo.

SOS from Russia: Goodwill people! Every day brings new victims. FORCE NATO to CLOSE the SKY OVER UKRAINE. This is the only way to stop Putin. Otherwise, you will be the next victim of his aggression! Putin is a WORLDWIDE CRIMINAL but don't be afraid of a nuclear strike from his side - he cannot do it alone, and the top militaries around him have families and want to live. It's just a threat on his part. He uses your fear to prevent military aid to Ukraine. BY NOT CLOSING the SKY OVER Ukraine NATO becomes an ACCOMPLICE of Putin's CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY
Wagner name should not be associated with Moscow thugs.
You kept talking about Russian casualties with such impunity but never talking about Ukraine heavy losses
A very good summary. I would just add that the Wagner Group supplies "Implausible Deniability", not "plausible deniability", because it is clearly an arm of the Russian state.
There you go,,,You snipers take them both,,At the same time,
This really gives a whole new meaning to the expression "flesh tourism" doesn't it? Since all of them paid for their own air tickets.
But the cheap bastards didn't even bring a sheet for when they are dumped in a trench.

GREEDINESS OF FOREIGN SOILS MAKES WAR TO STEAL THE RESOURCES IN THAT REGION.
FYI Wagner group is still in Mali with it's 1000 men. Maybe Wagner group is bigger but no Wagner soldier have left Mali.
If one owns the wagner group and earn money on it's soldiers, then it's in your best interest to have soldiers alive so you can earn income.

@Russia's failing economy Not really. The fighters in the 80's broke ways with some becoming the Taliban and the others forming a rival group called Northern Alliance. They then went to war with each other until America invaded.
This is just the start and most people want to end this.
I'm an African, Ghanaian , I'm strongly interested to volunteer to fight for Ukraine against Russia invasion.
@Dominic Kogo,
You are a defender of free nations, you will be a hero for sure. Go fight against the oppressing criminal gang of whom illegally invaded a free nation.
Go do it Dominic, you're on the right side of history. God bless you.
God bless Ukrainian
God bless Russia and it's mother land
An American died fighting for Ukrainian freedom yesterday Slava Ukraini
Why nobody denazifies Russia?
It's not Sass, it's S.A.S (Special Air Service) they specialise is training too, I do believe at the time they trained Osama bin Laden bodyguards at the time when they were fighting the Russians!
Bin Laden is from one of the wealthiest families in Saudi Arabia who own a massive construction firm. He was not in Afghanistan in the 80s.
It stands for Special Air Sassy Services, so SASS. :)
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
2:46 and Ukrainian causalities, the highest number of Ukranian casualties since ww2?
Thanks
Very informative! 👏
Don't call them foreign fighter. Call them terrorists.
Look how media is biasef
Ukraine Special Forces have liquidated over 4,000 of the 8,000 strong Wagner militia in Ukraine. This unit faces total annihilation A special shout out to the elite covert British S.A.S. forces also assisting Ukraine along with the Mozart group to repel the Barbarians from their land. SLAVA Ukraine.
🤦🏻🍅
Well explained.
Even there are foreign fighters on Russia side also
So far, no sign of any Syrians, and apparently the combat effectiveness of the Chechens is quite low because their training and discipline are proving to be very substandard.
@@nobodyknows3180 Those Chechens are Regular Federal Russian Troops of the 141st Motorized Regiment of the Russian National Guard comprising of Chechens
@@nobodyknows3180 May be they are maintaining secrecy about Syrian fighters fighting on behalf of Russian side
@@nobodyknows3180 combat effectiveness? What happen to the Azovs then in Mariupol? I heard Zelensky recognized them as their best army or heroes of Ukraine..The fact is that Azovs are scared to face Chenchens..either they want to face reckless chenchen who dont care of the damn haters and die or they hide and flee from the city 😅
@@davidalexsebastiank6250 good to know. They still aren't very good, from all accounts. The 'Tik Tok Brigade' they're called. And Tik Tok has all the evidence of how poorly and ineffective they fight.
the reason ukrain need people out side to fight this phony war was 90% of the people in ukrain wanted him to run till hunter told him get on tv and cry and ill get dad to help.
Thought it was Jason Statham 🤣...I heard wagner group had neo nazis in it.
Yeah, go figure.
Yes, in the armed forces there are many neonazis, though not as many as in Ukraine. The paramilitary battalions of Azov, Right Sector, Ajdar is full of them.
As do the separatist groups from Luhansk and Donetsk, even more so than the Azov Battalion. But then remember, this isn't REALLY about 'de-nazifying' Ukraine at all, this is a land grab, because the natural resources in the Donbas region are worth $$$$$$TRILLIONS and Putin knows this. It is ZERO coincidence that even before Ukraine signed off on the long awaited "Strategic Partnership on Raw Materials" with the European Commission, Russia had already starting staging war goods along the Ukrainian border. This isn't a war to 'de-nazify' anything or anyone, it's a friggin bank heist, plain and simple, and Putin doesn't give a crap about wasting the lives of tens of thousands of people, be they Ukrainian or Russian, he and his oligarchs just wanted the money all along.
@@nobodyknows3180 It is about denazifying, demilitarizing and *of course* the resources. And since the US failed to steal the resources from Russia of Boris Jelzin it is trying to do it again with Ukraine. This is the reason why they hate Putin. Funnily enough you didn't mention the Ukrainian oligarchs who are just as greedy as their Russian counterparts. And of course it is about weakening Russia. Brzezinsky once said that Russia without Ukraine is no longer a super power. I hope the US fails as the have caused enough trouble in the world already.
@@M-a-k-o you play vicitim stance real well.
Men will fight for money, but they won't die for it.
Wtf are you talking about? Russia doesn't comply with the Geneva conventions.
It's more like NATO forces...why is everyone running away from this fact...
And this shows how biased is our world today. Let those by will of God win and bring peace.
R00tn T00tn Putin! YeHaa! G0 get Em SeaBass!
Plausible deniability? ---- Sorry, Vlad. But the U.S. government has no idea who paid several thousand mercenary specialist from the Blackwater group to fight in Ukraine.
As a wise man from Asia, this term "special operation" would be replaced by "WAR" because it has failed to achieve their goals. I have seen the consequences of their aggressions and Russia is losing bigtime, economically, militarily, morally.
It would be replaced with "WAR" regardless of the outcome, because IT IS WAR.
You're a bot from Ukraine aren't you?

You can check channel of Patrick Lancaster, Graham Philips, The Durin,iEarlGrey, Richard Medhurst. they are independent channel providing authentic news unlike western media with pure propaganda
@Aqua Fyre sounds like you're one to talk, effeminate sounding something who joined YT only a month ago.
It's funny how, for instance, Blinken does Biden's clean work.
If he does Putin’s dirty work , he must be a very busy man.
Note the Ukranian forces actually employ their Foreign fighters individually as part of the Ukrainian army and should enjoy all the protections of regular troops The Wagner group are independent mercenary companies and not an actual legal part of the Russian army so therefore by international law have no protections
at·tri·tion; the action or process of gradually reducing the strength or effectiveness of a group, through sustained attack. Ukraini commanders' when asked what'll they do, said, "We'll make them bleed!" 🌻🇺🇦🛩️🇺🇦🚜
In process of making them bleed,you are going to bleed to unceremonious,useles,shamefull death!Uncle Sam fights the Russian to the last Ukrop!
I'm waiting for the war to escalate to other countries before I sign up
Support Ukraine. Stop Putin.
Right❗️ Foreign fighters must not be treated as POWs❗️. This is becoming Messy😢.
if we're seeing this much news of dead and captured foreigners (which are a small minority of total forces of ukraine), imagine how many ukranian soldiers are being killed, wounded, and captured.
Watch Telesur for truths and Patric Lancaster reporting live from donbass amidst shellings.
The Americans are exploiting the Ukrainians and leading them to ruin, but there is one good situation, because the refugees from Ukraine are spreading Orthodoxy in Europe and the Balkans, and the Bosniaks, Muslims, are strengthening their ties with Islamic countries.
How much Americans value human lives has been shown by dropping atomic bombs on Japan. Europeans ask: Can America live without wars? Is it real hunger or greed? There are no poor citizens in Europe like America, who sleep in subways and abandoned basements, and we do not plunder the natural resources of other countries. America is the most dangerous country in the world and difficult for anyone who is her friend?

The Syrians are fighting for the Russians in Ukraine also.
Let me help you out. Mercenary: Mer-SEN-Ary. SAS: S-A-S. not Sass. How the hell is there anyone in the media that doesn't know who the SAS are and how to properly pronounce the acronym...mein gott
If your copy came from Moscow you can be forgiven?
who cares. your panties are too tight. loosen up and focus on the big picture. i personally dont punctuate on the computer. its too informal and i dont care. neither do others. sas, fbi, cia, madd. its all the same.
its Sasssss, and mer-si-nari
No one's talking about the 'tik tok battalion' Chechen mercenaries.
Very interesting.

Foreign fighters who are fighting for Putin are wanting money in exchange for their military services they are not fighting for freedom; the foreign fighters for Ukraine are fighting for freedom; and not for money but will gladly except money if offered to them.
Nice presentation
So mercenary fighting for Ukraine shot immediately by russian will be legitimate.
I think the more sorry for Ukraine, the more severe the damage will be and of course it will take a long time to rebuild. Regardless of what is a problem between the two parties. I love humanit

For Ukraine they can be trainers or specialist for the western weopons
Russia they are ground troops
Sas in SW Ukraine are probably trainers
Or maybe someone trapped in Moriopol
@@dandyally9983 The SAS are a part of the UK armed forces. They won't have been allowed to take part in combat. But it appears they have been training Ukrainian troops. They're effective as trainers, it will help in Ukraine's struggle to stay independent.
@@olddogoddments675 They are given the name "former" in when they do regime change jobs etc. I,e Libya or Ukraine 2014.
any one who is not fighting for Ukraine just cut there thoughts
If you feel so strongly you should send yourself to Ukraine.
why did the ukrain dictartor have to stop his men from leaving the country because they didn't want to fight for the dictator's crooket war
