Almost two years after the start of the war between Ukraine and Russia, the International Legion for Defense created by President Volodimir Zelensky this week launched a call for the incorporation of Spanish-speaking volunteers to the battlefront, regardless if they have experience in combat.
This group, formed by a decree promoted by Zelensky after the invasion of Vladimir Putin's army, created in the last few hours a website in Spanish for those who want to enlist: "From now on you can apply to volunteer speaking only Spanish. It is no longer necessary to know English and/or Ukrainian."
As detailed by the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine, those interested will receive a monthly salary that varies according to the task they carry out:
$600 a month if they work behind the front lines of battle. $1,200 a month if they serve in danger zones. $3,300 a month if deployed in combat.
They also note that injured soldiers will receive free treatment and a lifetime pension in case of disability. Finally, for those families who suffer the loss of a loved one in the line of duty, compensation of $400,000 would be granted
In one hand, argie nazis getting killed, in the other hand, argie nazis getting paid training
I don't think Ukraine is doing much training anymore
to be fair, there's not much of a learning curve to getting vaporized by artillery
I for one am an expert!
Being in an active combat zone sounds like training to me
That is probably one of the points. They're preparing death squads for the coming instability in Argentina, for when just getting the cops to kill people becomes a bad look
Or it'll probably just be one of the side effects
