LONDON, March 11 (Reuters) - Russian President Vladimir Putin gave the green light on Friday for up to 16,000 volunteers from the Middle East to be deployed alongside Russian-backed rebels to fight in Ukraine, doubling down an invasion that the West says has been losing momentum.
The move, just over two weeks since Putin ordered the invasion, allows Russia to deploy battle-hardened mercenaries from conflicts such as Syria without risking additional Russian military casualties. read more
At a meeting of Russia's Security Council, Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu said there were 16,000 volunteers in the Middle East who were ready to come to fight alongside Russian-backed forces in the breakaway Donbass region of eastern Ukraine.


Commentary:
This move places Putin in a precarious position, If he begins to use mercenary troops to fight in the Ukraine, what keeps NATO and America from doing the same?
In addition, what should stop volunteer groups going to the aid of the Ukraine?
Has Putin opened his own Pandora's box?

Ohhh please, please can we send central American and Haitian invaders to fight Russians? What a fantastic idea. Round them up, and send them out. We have millions. If only it could really be.

The elites are going to get that 50-90% reduction in the world population they want one way or the other.

*****SMILE*****

American volunteers have fought in many
foreign wars-----NOTHING is stopping us---
or other NATO people. I have no doubt that
pro-russian baathist pigs will get allah to endorse
jihadists to the CAUSE

 

[Auld Phart]

The Axis is grouping.

Will the Allies triumph again?

 

[shockedcanadian]

If many of those in the M.E cut tail and ran in support of their own homeland, what makes anyone believe they will fight with more commitment in some other land?

 

[Sunni Man]

Putin once again shows he is a master tactician. ...
Middle East fighters are battle hardened and very experienced in urban warfare. They will be a valuable asset in the house to house street fighting in the capitol city of Kyiv and other large cities.

 

[Donald H]

This could lead one to think that ME fighters will be willing to fight against America.

Money, the same "commitment" a couple of ex-GI "contractor" guys from my AO went to Ukraine for.....Good place for those ass-holes.

Lots of naive peeps up in this thread.

 

[Damaged Eagle]

If I go over to fight is the loot and wives I bring back to the United States or Russia all tax exempt?

*****CHUCKLE*****

FOR ALLAH

 

[task0778]

It says something about Russia's military if they gotta hire mercenaries to fight for them.

Ukraine is already accepting mercenary fighters. That burden falls on them. Not the US, or NATO.

FOR ALLAH

Yes probably true. They would see America as being their biggest enemy on account of their religious preferences.

If Saudis fight for Russia they shouldn't go home again.

 

[Sunni Man]

If Saudis fight for Russia they shouldn't go home again.

I seriously doubt the ME fighters will come from Saudi Arabia.
My guess it will be mainly fighters from Syria bankrolled by Assad as a payback to Russia for their helping him win the civil war.

So are you Canucks gonna hire them to invade south...................Have you beaten down more old people over honking and vaccine passports lately.

Or have you now WE REALLY DIDN'T MEAN TO BE FASCISTS..........

 

[eagle1462010]

If the OP IS TRUE. Then it's not going well for Putin............If he's having to hire more people to go there then he must be having a hard time there.

Probably. Although Syria has no money.
