Almost two years after the start of the war between Ukraine and Russia, the International Legion for Defense created by President Volodimir Zelensky this week launched a call for the incorporation of Spanish-speaking volunteers to the battlefront, regardless if they have experience in combat.

This group, formed by a decree promoted by Zelensky after the invasion of Vladimir Putin's army, created in the last few hours a website in Spanish for those who want to enlist: "From now on you can apply to volunteer speaking only Spanish. It is no longer necessary to know English and/or Ukrainian."

As detailed by the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine, those interested will receive a monthly salary that varies according to the task they carry out:

$600 a month if they work behind the front lines of battle. $1,200 a month if they serve in danger zones. $3,300 a month if deployed in combat.

They also note that injured soldiers will receive free treatment and a lifetime pension in case of disability. Finally, for those families who suffer the loss of a loved one in the line of duty, compensation of $400,000 would be granted

    I look forward to Colombian fash paramilitares taking them up on this offer, getting dead, and then Ukraine not having enough money to pay the family compensation

    If this goes on long enough maybe Russia can denazify the world

      That is probably one of the points. They're preparing death squads for the coming instability in Argentina, for when just getting the cops to kill people becomes a bad look

      Or it'll probably just be one of the side effects

    Looks like they have decided to fight well beyond the last Ukrainian.

    I love the idea of him just jetsetting around the world begging people to die on the battlefield on his behalf. It's so absurd.

    New plan: Send all of Latin America gusanos to Ukraine and have Russia bomb them.

    Bit idea: enlist then change sides to the correct one after you get there
