Russia Says It Notifies Countries Whose Citizens Fight as Mercenaries in Ukraine
Russian envoy Rodion Miroshnik says some states have asked Moscow to inform them if it has information about their citizens serving as foreign mercenaries in the conflict.
Russia has been attempting to inform countries when it has information that their citizens are fighting as mercenaries in Ukraine, according to Rodion Miroshnik, a Russian envoy cited by the state news agency TASS.
Miroshnik said that some states had approached Russia directly with requests to be notified if Moscow obtains information about foreign mercenaries originating from their respective countries.
The envoy's remarks, reported by TASS, did not specify which countries had made such requests or provide further details on the scope or mechanism of the information-sharing process.
TASS did not provide additional context on the timing or venue of Miroshnik's statement. The report offers limited detail on how many countries have been contacted or what information has been shared to date.
Russia has repeatedly raised the issue of foreign fighters and mercenaries participating in the conflict in Ukraine, though independent verification of specific claims made by Russian officials was not immediately available.
