We’re already talking about expanding the legion, “because it doesn’t fit everyone,” the adviser to the head of the President’s Office said.
Over the past few days, there has been a sharp, massive influx of Russians willing to fight for Ukraine by joining the Freedom of Russia Legion. This was announced on Saturday, June 18, by Aleksey Arestovich, an adviser to the head of the Office of the President, on Feygin LIVE.
“We have a huge influx into the Legion of Freedom of Russia, a spasmodic influx. For that of several hundred people, the jump has happened in an area of 250 people over the past few days. These are the Russians who have reached us in by third countries, “he said.
According to him, now we are talking about options to duplicate the unit or expand it, because “everyone can not fit.”
It is known that the Freedom of Russia Legion emerged as part of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in March 2022. It recruits citizens of the Russian Federation who volunteered to fight on the side of the Ukrainian army. At the same time, the candidates undergo a thorough examination.
Earlier it was reported that representatives of 55 countries in the world are fighting on the side of Ukraine against the Russian army.
