“Currently, close to 100 foreigners are serving in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. These are mainly citizens of Belarus, Georgia, Lithuania, Moldova and Russia,” he said.
He also noted that the financial support for foreigners is no different from military personnel who are citizens of Ukraine.
At the same time, other figures were also mentioned in the media. Obviously, in this case we are talking only about those mercenaries who have legalized their status in the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
