KIEV-(MaraviPost)-As the war between Russiah and Ukraine continues, Ukraine has made an insane offer of $2,000 (K2.1 million) per day and citizenship to people from other countries to join their fight.
First deputy interior minister Yevhen Yenin said in a TV interview that Nearly 20,000 people from 52 countries have signed up to become volunteers in the war with Russia, reported the Guardian.
An Advert for the international fighters has appeared on an employment website, Silent Professionals, for those working in the private military and security industry.
“Only highly experienced candidates who possess at least 5+ years of military experience in this region of Europe will be considered for this role — no exceptions,” reads the advert.
It is reported that fighters arriving in Ukraine say they are attracted by the quest to stop “unprovoked attack in a once-in-a-generation showdown between the forces of democracy and dictatorship.
Concerns are rising that some people joining the war have little or no combat experience.
Russia launched its invasion of Ukraine in February and reports indicate that Ukraine’s armed forces are heavily outnumbered by Russia’s.
Ukraine has so far mounted significant resistance.
