In the although it may sound contradictory, There are Russian volunteers who are fighting on the Ukrainian side. One of the greatest examples of that reality is the Free Russian Legion.
The organization’s website explains that the free Russian legion is immersed in a Armed combat “against the dictatorship of and its closest circle, which is stealing the future to Russia.”
Maksimilian Andronnikov, attached commander of the Russian Librehas granted an interview with the Finnish media in which he has assured that “We have started a hybrid war against Putin.”
The 51 -year -old man explained that his Military Unitwhich is officially part of the Ukraine Armed Forces, is composed of “hundreds of people”although the organization does not reveal the exact number of troops.
The Russian free legion formed in March 2022just a couple of weeks after February 24, 2022 Russia launched its large -scale military invasion against Ukrainian territory.
The most remarkable thing about this organization is that The soldiers that serve in the same are Russians. Hay both volunteers and soldiers of the Russian army made prisoners of war they wanted to change the side and pass to the Ukrainian side.
In the event that a truce was finally reached in the war, the Russian free legion would have to stop shooting. However, that would not make it dissolve. “We will not stop our political activities. We will begin to create resistance forces within Russia”Andronnikov emphasizes, who defends that his country, Russia, could become a happy and prosperous country if you get the Putin regime to fall.
