Putin Loses a CRITICAL Recruitment Source!
did Putin just lose one of his most important sources of military Manpower is this just a coincidence or is this part of a larger plan I’m Paul US Army Combat veteran let’s talk about it so this is an interesting series of stories uh that I think collectively represent something pretty interesting so you see here this is an article from literally today Sri Lanka seeks to bring home what it calls duped ex soldiers fighting in the Russian war right Sri Lanka’s economy of course having crashed 2 years ago um sending a lot of young able-bodied men AB Brad defined work and many former Sri Lankan soldiers actually joined forces fighting in Ukraine after Russia’s Invasion now many of the veterans thought they were taking non-combat jobs um but in fact ended up fighting for the Russians right uh the Sri Lankan government says that at least 16 Sri Lankans have been killed and 37 wounded but if we have about a dozen Sri Lankans held as PWS um what we can infer is probably quite a few uh times that are actually being recruited right now Sri Lanka of course uh has a uh pretty robust military right here’s one interview where he said my husband was in the Commando regiment for 22 years a woman said he retired did some odd jobs but it wasn’t enough to manage and then he went to Moscow to take what he what he thought was a non-combat role and he ended up fighting in Ukraine and has gone missing but that’s not the only country that has started to really come after go after Russian recruiters right Nepali as many as 15,000 were recruited to fight in Ukraine on behalf of Russia right and you see this article is from February of this year right pointing out that there’s a large recruitment system churning up churning out um foreign Fighters uh to fight on behalf of Russia but you see Nepal May 6th right just a month ago asked for demanded or sorry asked Russia for the safer turn of its citizens who’ve been recruited in the Russian army right which is fascinating he says the government’s making all efforts to rescue and repatriate nepes Nationals working working in the Russo Ukrainian War right several nepales Nationals recruited in the Russian army have been injured or in distress the real number seems much higher based on sort of the experiences of other foreign fighters who report that nepales Indians bangladeshis are some of the most common um right and when you see 20 plus being killed it’s not unreasonable to say that this they may actually have gotten around 15,000 and then finally today you see the Sri Lankans the Sri Lankan government is also demanding that Russia stop recruiting its veterans oh oh sorry we covered that India that got my stories in order India is also saying listen you have to return Indian citizens who you recruited right he says the Indian government takes the matter very seriously India’s foreign Ministry says it was in touch with Russian authorities to manage the repatriation of two Indians remains other other Indians have died fighting earlier this year and so collectively it seems like some of the most important sources for Putin’s foreign recruitment drives uh namely countries like Bangladesh India uh and Sri Lanka Sri Lanka and Nepal are demanding that Russia stop its recruitment efforts and return its citizens right and this is a bad news for Putin because we know that he has relied on these what they call crypto mobilization efforts um because so many of Russia doesn’t have more citizens that want to fight right Putin refuses to make a general conscription for the Russo Ukrainian War um that would be wildly unpopular and so he’s relying on a bunch of different tactics including recruiting prisoners recruiting uh the very very impoverished and most notably these foreign Fighters but it seems like a lot of these foreign countries in the last maybe 60 days have gone on record come out publicly and said Russia’s doing this and we don’t like it some of them have outlawed Russia from recruiting at all and this kind of move is it’s not crippling right but if it’s true that up to 15,000 nepes were brought in some numbers I’ve heard average around a thousand a month and remember if you’re bringing in a thousand of these overseas Fighters a month and your total number is 30,000 then you’ve actually or 25,000 let’s say then you’ve actually crippled done a 4% damage to the Russian recruitment efforts right which is not insignificant given the attrition first strategy and that’s why I actually think that this is part of a us um likely a us-led uh counter campaign right just as Putin is said okay my goal is to recruit military Manpower fight this gradual War of Attrition uh and then isolate Ukraine diplomatically from its allies and sources of support the US in turn is saying we are going to isolate Russia from its sources of support and given that Ukraine is focused on at trting Russian forces right if they’re being ground down for uh the US they say listen if we can diplomatically cut off sources of Russian Manpower then we can facilitate these kind of wins again imagine if you could add an extra let’s say 1,000 they’re not casualties they’re Fighters that never even made it into the Russian military if you can at trit that out right it’s the same thing as having to you know eliminate them with Munitions on the battlefield so I think this is Central to a strategy and the fact that they all have happened within this relatively small cluster of time to me indicates that this is part of a an organized effort by the um by the West right now guys if you’re looking to become more effective yourselves you don’t need to rely on sketchy overseas recruitment strategies you may just need some strike gum strike gum 90 milligrams of caffeine in every single piece if you’re an energy drink consumer and you’re looking for a more healthy alternative strike gum might just be what you’re looking for we have zero sugar 90 milligrams of caffeine in every piece that’s as

just the perfect size to throw one in your gym bag your glove box your office keep one at home so thanks to everybody that’s left us festar reviews on Amazon on and really gotten the word out about strike gum check it out thanks okay so again as part of this kind of Russian uh information War that’s been going on a prominent Russian Mill blogger the RAR Channel you guys might know rybar has actually opened what it’s calling the ryar media School in kirikhan right and ryar expressly says that if Russia doesn’t start to roll out a more uh aggressive media campaign right and and dominate the information space it feels that Russia could be quote expelled from Central Asia in 3 to 5 years if it doesn’t assert itself and manage its informational influence in the region which is a really fascinating kind of threat to feel if you’re Russia but kakhan is according to some reports another source of foreign Fighters so Russia maintaining tight control over the information space and preventing stories about the reality of the battlefield um from percolating into kakhan uh kakani media is important and that’s likely why this ryar school has been opened um there’s also of course uh ryar efforts uh to open in Serbia and other Bulan countries other areas where Russia exerts a lot of influence so again as I’ve talked about on this Chan for some time there is a contest a a a front of the war that is the information space just like there’s a front of the war that is the Diplomatic space and there’s of course the front of the war that is the battlefield and to Putin these are all three of equal importance anyway guys that’s all I had thank you so much to the colonel tier members of combat event news.com I could not do this without you guys thanks Lieutenant here we just

Duh! They've always let others fight their wars.
Really good content today.
India: Return our citizens or we stop buying your cheap oil.
What's so frustrating is that Indian news still continues its russian propaganda despite how Russia has been taking advantage of India.
You think they'll actually stop recruiting or send them home? H to the No.
❤😂 US want to gather intelligence from Nepal, Srilanka Indians fighting for Russia Military in Ukraine
ovi iz Šri Lanke su kao Srbi od 1945. 1990. u Hrvatskoj a posebno njihove pljačke devedesetih po Sloveniji, Hrvatskoj , BiH, Kosovu !
Propaganda lies
You can keep your gum, alpha GPC is a prescription drug due to having some nasty side effects so no it's not open to the general public in Europe and only a few countries even sell it
The idea that you would join a war in a "non-combat" role is ridiculous (i seriously question the entire thought process behind that being logical to them) because when you think about it if the worst would come to pass every able soldier would be fighting whether it be Russian allied or Ukrainian, No one is exempt from experiencing combat in a WAR most would be counted as incredibly lucky to avoid the heavy fighting at the very least
Makes sense they'd "dupe" vets from the indian subcontinent, even if they aren't prepared for actual frontline combat they know the material and overall tactics since they've had cooperation and the same gear for decades. I wonder what motivated them and if it's indeed US policy (most probably) what it implies for the regional policy overall there.
It’s no surprise Russia is recruiting Bangladeshis, Nepalese, and Central African people’s. Poverty is a hell of a thing. Russia offers a few thousand dollars to join. That amount is laughable in the west but to some of these people that’s a life changing amount of money…If they even get payed.
The Russians are kidnapping Indians, immigrants and students.
Must say its impresisve that only 20 died from nepal if they are around 15 000. It means Russia indeed cherish foregin figters.
Since Ukrainina and Russian are dyign in much higher %
Of course Russia will put ethnic minorities in the front line rather than white Russians!
everyone is feeling uncomfortable about protesting on behalf of gaza when their soldiers are fighting for russia
I hope those guys got a signing bonus! They not getting their first paycheck!
Not sure if it's mainly because of US/Western diplomacy although diplomats would certainly would have dropped lines. That might be giving US to much pull. With the US aid to Ukraine resuming it's clear the war will not be over this summer. Having years of manpower drain, protest by widows and mothers who lost their sons and husband and at the end having an ever growing contingent of veterans returning simply is not an interesting perspective for any government. And once one government is going to raise it complains to Russia, pressure on other governments will develop to do the same. That it happens in a short space of time in multiple countries is not that strange, especially as they all are in the same region. It does not need an outside force to arrange it all.
I like you…. Please stop saying “Right?”
Thanks
The problem is that much of the global south is very receptive to Russian talking point – thus easily duped.
Running out of cannon. Fodder …..! 😮
For the algorithm 👍
Misinformation..
HI Paul,👍👍👍….a very good move by 🇺🇸….😊
Russia isn't imperialist, no, not at all… 😂
Thank you
The planet 🌍 loves wars 😂
More the culling, gives rest of the planet more alive years
People thought they won lotto- recruitment devils making$$ keeping $$ from fallen so called comrades
Russia brainwashing still going hard. Wat a Shit show
Nepalis,Indians sorry but rus orc will never leave,thats a trick…you take their rubles and now they owe you forever,send you in meat waves or cannon fodder but you will never see your home again…call home and tell others no to cone,because you wont comming back.😮😢
Are the Russian ships in Havana there for a secondary purpose of picking up thousands of Cuban men to fight in Ukraine
I am from Argentina both Russia & Ukraine are looking to recruite here . Advising the poor . Incredible
I thought the brics were going to take over the world? They cannot even work together to enslave Ukraine for pootin? PATHETIC!!!!
I don't understand why people fall for this "non-combat role" stuff, in basic training they give EVERY single recruit combat training, whether they're joining to be a chef, a barber, a medic or a typist
Play stupid games….
If Ukraine or US etc can encourage these small countries to block recruiting I think that can be considered "casualties" / attrition. It is bodies they no longer have access to.
No one in there right mind would volunteer to fight for Russia against Ukraine.
4:23 GOOD LORD!!!!!!!! Stop saying the same things over and over and over again! And stop stuttering half sentence and starting a new sentence. YOU ARE BABBLING!!!!!!!!!!!! And you don't even know it! PLEASE STOP! Write out a script or at least talking points and stick to them. You cannot operate off the top of your head for news. No one does it in reality. Don't imagine you can. This video proves you can't. Next video, please prepare more and stick to the prepared material. You can also edit out the babbling and repetition.
