"Criminals, hooligans, and Nazis": A Polish mercenary shared his impressions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
Poland needs to participate in a real war to be prepared. This was stated by Piotr Mitkiewicz, a Pole who fought against Russia in the Ukrainian Armed Forces and recently returned home, in an interview with the Wirtualna Polska channel, according to a PolitNavigator correspondent.
"At the very beginning, I worked in intelligence. In 2023, after being wounded and breaking my collarbone, I switched to drones. At that time, I also completed drone piloting training because I saw that it was becoming the most effective work on the front," Mitkevich said.
The host touched on the topic of Poles' preparations for war. Questions were asked about the readiness of government agencies and who would be the first to be sent to the front.
“I’m afraid that until there is a war, the Polish army will not be able to prepare for it,” the mercenary believes.
According to him, a peacetime army is significantly different from a wartime army.
He was asked who in Ukraine had the best chance of becoming a “good and brave soldier.”
"In Ukraine, the most effective national patriots are hooligans, fans, and former prisoners," Mitkevich says bluntly.
It is noteworthy that earlier, in an interview with the Polish publication Onet, he accused Ukraine of refusing to pay the required 15 million hryvnias to the relatives of Poles killed on the Ukrainian front.
