‼️ Africans for $2,200 - Russia is intensifying the recruitment of mercenaries for the war against Ukraine

👥 The aggressor state Russia has significantly intensified the campaign to recruit foreign mercenaries for the war against Ukraine: it is about recruiting manpower in central Africa, in particular - in Rwanda, Burundi, Congo and Uganda.

✔️ A specially created unit of the Ministry of Defense of Russia deals with the recruitment of Africans for their participation in "meat" assaults on Ukrainian soil.

👉 Mercenaries are lured with an initial cash payment of $2,000 for signing a contract, a monthly security of $2,200, medical insurance, and a Russian passport for the soldier and his family members are promised.

❗️ We will remind you that earlier mercenaries from Nepal, recruited by Moscow for the war against Ukraine, deserted en masse from the occupation army due to numerous losses and the brutal treatment of Russian field commanders.

And you can’t really blame the poor guys who take up this offer either. I imagine this is very attractive to some of those poorest Africans.

But can you imagine dying in the cold mud thousands of miles from home, based on this bullshit? Or losing a loved one to that?

All in all, it certainly shows the Russian level of desperation if this is what’s needed to fill their ranks.
