“Americans are in charge of foreign fighters,” says French reporter

A French reporter returning from Ukraine has told in an interview with French news channel C News that Americans are directly in charge of the foreign fighters fighting against Russia.

“I accompanied French volunteers. You know there was an appeal at the beginning of President Zelensky, who called for international volunteers with combat experience. And so I accompanied three Frenchmen, one of whom had been a soldier before, and two who had fought together in Rojava, against ISIS. So people with military experience. I spent several days with them. I had the surprise, and so did, they, to discover that to be able to enter the Ukrainian army, well, it’s the Americans who are in charge,” the reporter said.

“I thought I was with the international volunteer battalions, but found myself facing the #Pentagon,” he added.
