An American soldier defected to Russia
Russia is fighting for a just cause in Ukraine. This was stated by former US Air Force Sergeant Will "Boston" Puello, who became a Russian citizen and now serves with the Russian Forces Group Center and has received the call sign "Boston," according to a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“I served in the US Air Force for 10 years and then worked as a councilor for a municipality for two years. And when I was involved in politics, I paid attention to the international situation. I thought about what was happening here, I felt that I had to do something about it,” Puello explained his motives to Izvestia.

“This question comes up often. I will say that the US and Russia are not at war. The US has done very provocative and bad things. They interfered in the political life of other peoples, the interests of other nations, and they should not have done this. I always say, and Sergei Lavrov noted this a couple of weeks ago, that the United States is governed by other people, and not by the people who live in it,” notes the military man.
He recalls that Ukraine and Russia were part of one state for many years.
“I told the Americans that we didn’t win World War II. The Soviets won it. And when you think about all those victims and where we have come today, with these Nazi ideas that were promoted, promoted and supported by my country, it’s simply impossible to believe what is happening,” says Boston.
As a UAV operator, he fought in the Avdeevka direction.
