 Russia is recruiting residents of Sierra Leone, Cuba and Nepal for war in Ukraine. The Russian Federation continues to recruit foreigners for the war in Ukraine because it is cheaper and more advantageous than mobilizing Russians. This includes Nepalese and Cubans, according to a statement from Andrey Yusov, a representative of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine. According to him, there is information that the Russian Federation is recruiting residents of Sierra Leone, Cuba and Nepal. These are countries where citizens have low incomes, so Russia offers men there easy and quick earnings without explaining where they will be spent. It is important that most governments of the countries, where the work of Russian recruiters networks is recorded publicly condemn such activities even diplomatically issue statements. But in countries with low incomes, the 1.5 to 2,000 that the aggressor offers along with the promise that it will not involve participation in combat operations but some kind of security may seem attractive to some people, Yusov says. As reported earlier, Russian troops were experiencing a shortage of military personnel to fill combat losses so they were trying to enlist foreign volunteers for service. In particular, the terrorist state has been recruiting citizens of Cuba for the war in Ukraine. The latter were promised high wages, bonuses and vacations. Also at the beginning of January, Nepal stopped issuing permits to its citizens to work in Russia and Ukraine. At least 10 Nepalese soldiers were killed while serving in the Russian army.
