Firstly, I would like to draw your attention to the words that were spoken yesterday by Russian President Vladimir Putin regarding foreign mercenaries and how we in our country qualify them. This is an important statement.
The second point. We initially said that nothing good awaits foreign mercenaries in the Ukrainian conflict. We warned them about what fate awaits them. It is obvious – they become hostages to the ambitions of their own regimes and the deceit of the Kiev regime. They were lured and sent there in different ways. Some were sent under the guise of mercenaries, but they were actually representatives of the special services of the respective countries. Some were “bought” with stories about how democracy was allegedly under threat in Ukraine.
We honestly told them why they were being lured or sent there, and most importantly, what would happen to them next. We warned them that they should not expect any leniency for their criminal acts because they had foreign passports.
