Siberia battalion, which will include russians and Buryats, being formed in Ukraine - media

In Ukraine, they are trying to form the Siberia battalion, which will include representatives of ethnic minorities from russia. In particular, it will be Buryats who want independence for their country.

This is reported by Bloomberg.

In addition to Buryats, there are russians in the training camp of Siberia. All of them came from third countries because they want to fight against the aggressor country of russia. The Buryats mainly come from the large East Siberian region of russia. They want their region to gain independence in the future. They consider Ukraine's victory in the war a step towards this independence. Representatives of the battalion claim that not all russians support putin.

According to Bloomberg, Ukrainian officials expect to attract more russian citizens, especially representatives of national minorities, to participate in the war against putin.

The members of the Siberia battalion went through a thorough background check as to whether they were supporters of Ukraine, and then signed a military contract, receiving army call signs to protect their identity.

Now the battalion has 60 people. There are no prisoners of war among them.

As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, the commander of the Russian Volunteer Corps Denis Kapustin with the call sign White Rex called on all supporters of the Russian Volunteer Corps to take active action against putin's government and announced the collapse of the front of the aggressor state of the russian federation in Ukraine.

The Russian Volunteer Corps believes that the attempted coup d'état in the aggressor country of the russian federation, organized by the Wagner militants on Saturday, June 24, showed that there are enough people in russia ready to overthrow the power of vladimir putin.
