British-trained Afghan soldiers would be ready to go to Ukraine as mercenaries if Britain would help them.
British Independent magazine has found surprising information in September presidential candidate Donald Trump’s attempted murder Ryan Wesley Routh backgrounds.
According to the newspaper’s information, Routh had already been trying for months to assemble a group of former Afghan special forces soldiers who would have gone to fight on the Ukrainian front.
Before the rise to power of the Taliban organization in 2021, a well-trained special military unit operated in Afghanistan. It had received its funding and training from Britain. After the Taliban came to power, the men fled with their families to, for example, Iran, where they often live hidden from the authorities.
The British Ministry of Defense has a program that would allow Afghans who have worked for Britain to be resettled in Britain. Routh had tried to help the soldiers to be covered by the program, but the British administration has not been able to make decisions.
The soldier interviewed by the Independent who goes by the name “Hafizullah” says that he and many others would be ready to go to war in Ukraine if the transfer was successful. Since no decisions have been made, according to him, about 25 of his acquaintances have accepted Russia’s offer to go to war with its forces.
