All about money…Ukraine can do the same….
I hope the folks in Burkina Faso and especially their president see this.
Putin is wicked , taking advantage of the poor and vulnerable against their wish through deception
God will judge Russia
This is worse than stavery , Africa leaders Russia is not your friend
This is so painful yhoo
This is the same putin-Russia most of African brothers are praises at as the new African savior. Guys don't sleep on bicycle because you fall heavily more than how you have fell before and after colonization. These so called super powers are looking for people and countries to use to enrich themselves. Good that this war is exposing and will expose many things to some Africans who are ready to learn
Electrician? Pause the video and read the Job description they are mercenaries…..
😂😂😂😂
They were not lured but they agreed and signed contract to fight for Russia. They are coward for fighting for criminal Putin
Money!
not trying to defend anybody but why would the russians even record that? it only makes them look worse

When the campaign begins, we are preparing to storm all of you.
Let them die in Ukraine how can you help the aggressor to go to kill the innocent Ukrainians. it's one way ticket.
africans are getting fucked up in rusia…the Ukraines DON'T miss when they shoot!!! Putin use africans to die, not russia soldiers! russia is NOT the big brother, but they think african they stupid…be careful, russia ALWAYS speak fucking lies!!
They did this with African prisoners (imprisoned by Wagner mercenary group) in the beginning of the war , they just brought them to the Ukraine and said if they fought they would be pardoned
Foriegners need to know to avoid Russia at all costs. They will never tell the truth. They may promise to keep you off the frontline, but you'll be put right into battle, often without support or equipment.
Soldiers are those who don't care the one supposed to pay them not like greedy civilians
why do i see this personality so often in russians? some pathetic dude taking his anger out on his wife or POW or this guy like some manchild scum
Wonder if the content is true . Seems to be AI supported by …..
What the hell did they expect they would be doing, playing in the military band??
Who are those fools that believed russian government?
These men voluntarily pay their flight ticket to russia to join the army. I have more than 10 friends who are currently in the army and we are chatting everyday. They pay their flight ticket they themselves. When they can’t withdraw the money in their russian bank accounts they start saying they lure them into the russian army.
Nato propaganda
Dont fcknn go to a war zone, no matter how much you're promised. Why are they so stpid
Trust Putin at your own peril
Fake these are Ukrianaians.
even the ruskies got fatigued
So Russians soldiers took this video, and their denying, hmm? Who should we believe.
Russia and Putin the friend of Ramaphosa and his ANC organisation. They must be happy with what Putin regime is doing to the African youth, if Putin was Trump the whole of Africa would be beaming with anger by now, double standard from the so called African leaders, the hypocrites.
Horrible!!!
where are are the blacks that Suports Russia
Russia is evil.
This is very bad indeed , why are African spilling their blood for a war which is not connected to them in any aspects ? we are the rag of the world so disgusting
There is nothing more beautiful in life than dying happily for Putin :-).
Hey, we just need you to strap this mine to yourself. Okay? I wish I could take your place
There is a recruitment of Kenyan youths in meru national polytechnic aged 21 to 35 mens only, they hv being informed that, there is a scaffolding work in Saudi Arabia,I wonder is this true or jxt a deception, only to find themselves in Russian army?
He Looks so sad 😢 RIP Francis! ❤
The Russian treatment of African worst than westerners treatment towards Africans
This is wild, u see it in his eyes … He knows he screwed
forced by whom???? they made a decision to join the foreign country's war for money. Last I checked it's called mercenaries. So why the outrage? Why the victimhood? Make better decisions, yes?
Strap one on Putin!
Why would anyone trust communist government y ?
He's not fighting he's being forced to storm the front lines with a land mine strapped to his chest. He's being sent to die. It's an execution of our African men simple and clear
Proudly South African
