In the temporarily occupied territories, the Russians have created a number of volunteer battalions on paper, which consist of Russians and do not function as a combat unit.
The battalions perform a propaganda function and are intended to create the impression that the local population is voluntarily fighting for the invaders. A similar function in Russia is performed by the “Cossack communities” that Russians have created in the TOT for the same purpose.
Now the Kremlin has decided to unite these two fake structures. In this way, they hope to increase the number of fighters in the “battalions” and to emphasize the narrative that the “Cossacks” support the aggressor.
You can stop the policy of the Russian invaders and their collaborators by publicizing their crimes and demanding their international prosecution. You can also participate in rallies in support of Ukraine or donate to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
