Advance the video to 2:36. The "soldier" replies in perfect English with and American accent. He is either a mercenary or CIA.
This is, I think, a very significant development. Americans in Ukrainian uniform fighting in Mariupol.
It seems as if Obama is heading towards direct conflict with Russia over the Ukraine. Why? What is the significant US interest in the Ukraine? It's just another bankrupt former Soviet satrap ruled by kleptocrats. If it wasn't for foreign aid they would be starving in the dark this winter. Let the Russians choke on them.
Because CIA Black Ops wouldn't know any better than to respond to a local reporter in the vernacular.
Zero Hedge BS. Most likely a merc. So what?
That may be not American. I was born in Saskatchewan and he has that Northwestern Canadian accent. Plus he says “please” after a firm request XD
To hang your hat on any assumed fact in a war zone is pure stupidity. All kinds of people are there.
Obama’s goal is chaos.
The issue is never the issue, the issue is always the revolution.
“perfect English with and American accent. “
Means nothing. A Ukrainian could have grown up here.
Why would it be a big deal if he was an American mercenary who decided to fight there?
I am certain no Americans paid by the USA - DoD or another government agency - are fighting in Ukraine. I’d likely know, and I wish they were. This is BS.

Some people been saying if you want to help Ukraine then go there.
Now we are upset people went there?
A couple of things. It’s too short to determine if it’s an American accent or not. Secondly there are tons of Ukrainians who immigrated to America, many of whose children or themselves have served so they may feel like they need to defend their Motherland or simply to stop Putin. Just like we have had Vets going to Syria or to the Kurds to fight ISIS.
I speak a few languages with a few different accents. I have two passports.
Our President has three passports.
The only difference is, he is a criminal; I am not.
Merc
Let him die...
“He is either a mercenary or CIA.”
Or Canadian. Eh?
OMG seriously?
Talk about micro stupidity......you think only americans can speak perfect English?
And do you know how many Americans have gone to fight with Ukrain?
Do you know how many went to fight ISIS?
Hint: the answer is “more than one”
I’m sure there are Mercs fighting over there and most assuredly CIA operatives but not “boots on the ground” in the literal sense.
Or simply an American veteran of Ukrainian descent— there was a report a few months ago of one such volunteer KIA who was a West Point graduate.
And Americans very seldom say 'please' in combat situations.
Or volunteer. Volunteers are now showing up in Kurdistan to fight ISIS, including some from a Dutch biker gang.
I listened three times, and heard, "Get oudda ma face". New Jersey, but with a mumbled "please".
Zerohedge seems to have a long standing practice of printing as truth, what propaganda they see in Russian or Muslim media sources.
