“I recruit foreigners to the legion. I put up posters, I post information on social media. Many people come to Ukraine wanting to help Ukrainians, but they don’t have a specific plan of action. My job is to select those who are capable of fighting,” said 56-year-old American Ryan Routh in an interview with PAP.
Ryan arrived in Ukraine after the Russian invasion. He wanted to fight, but he didn’t have the right military experience. Although he didn’t end up on the front, he helps in another way: he recruits candidates for the unit.
“Humanitarian aid is of course very important, but to win the war we need soldiers,” he added. He revealed that he had recently managed to recruit a Brazilian, a British and an Australian to the International Legion. “Now they have to train,” he said.
The American also created a place of remembrance for members of the legion who died in battle in Kiev, on Independence Square in the center of the Ukrainian capital.
“We officially lost over 300 soldiers. I started sticking small flags in the ground to pay tribute to them. I labeled them with their first and last name and date of death. Right next to them I created the same place for Ukrainian soldiers. Kyiv residents come here to honor their heroes,” he explained.
Ryan also prepared a book of remembrance where passersby can write a few words about their loved ones, friends and acquaintances who lost their lives in combat.
In turn, at the Monument to the Founders of Kiev he attached flags of various countries.
“I’ll stay here until the end of the war”
Asked how long he plans to stay in Ukraine, Ryan replied as long as necessary. “I’ll stay here until the end of the war, or until Putin loses,” he said with conviction.
The International Legion is a unit created in late February by the Ukrainian authorities for foreigners who want to support the fight against Russian troops. As Damien Magrou, spokesman for the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine, reported a few days ago, citizens of 55 countries are fighting in the formation. He added that the largest group are representatives of the USA and Great Britain, followed by Poland, Canada, the Baltic states and northern Europe, including Finland.

Sounds like another Democrat nutball.
