I have very exciting news that we have been working on for a long time and it’s now official. Protect a Volunteer now has a Memorandum of Cooperation and Interaction with the Foreign Recruitment Center of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. For OPSEC purposes I am not sharing the exact details of the agreement. However we are looking forward to working on the shared goals of helping more foreigners come to assist Ukraine’s fight and provide them with appropriate support once they arrive. Ukraine’s defense of its own territory is remarkable; so are the contribution of foreign volunteers who fight with them. Integrating thousands of volunteers coming from all around the world has not been easy. It understandably took time for Ukraine to formalize a system to be able to expand their recruitment of foreigners as well as the opportunities they have in Ukraine. Now that it is formalized under a central command we are looking forward to working together. We will have a lot of updates soon regarding this partnership.

An aspect of the war that is overlooked by many; more Qatari citizens are taking social media to express anger at Arab pundits and journalists going on Qatar-based Aljazeera and Alaraby TV for their support of Iran despite ongoing attacks on the GCC countries. Reports say Palestinian researcher @saeedziad has been arrested by Qatari police. This is something we didn't see during the GCC crisis in 2017

@peterktodd That would be expensive. There are ways to work it out though if the will was there. Moldova is the only option for Turks and a lot of Turks are willing to come.

@RachelPAV Chisinau Airport to the Mayaky border crossing is just two hours by car. A personal escort for every single person could probably be arranged for under $500. Not that cheap. But still only a small % of total costs. Like I said, Ukraine is protecting Moldova...

While I’m not sure if this is a safe plan, one benefit of flights landing in Ukraine is that more foreigners can come to Ukraine to join the army. Why is it mostly South Americans? Because they don’t need visas for Europe. They can fly to Poland without problems. Africans and many Asian countries cannot. If flights can take them directly to Ukraine they would be able to come.
Tymofiy Mylovanov@Mylovanov

Ukraine is preparing to reopen its airports. The government established a working group to develop proposals for resuming civil aviation. A flight from Boryspil needs 40 minutes in Ukrainian airspace to reach a safe zone — United24. Zelenskyy, 2024: Boryspil should be the first to open. 1/

There needs to be an award for gate agents looking out for tall people and putting us in the extra legroom seats.

@RachelPAV They could easily make special arrangements for those men to be delivered directly to the Ukrainian border without allowing them into the country normally. It could be as simple as some special busses from the airport.

@peterktodd To be honest I get the hesitation. It’s mostly young men intentionally going to fight a war and they are hesitant about letting in people with that profile.

@RachelPAV That's disappointing to hear. Moldova is being protected by Ukraine.

@peterktodd Moldova apparently refuses entry to a lot of people trying to come here. That does work in some cases but not all. It’s also very hard to fly to Moldova vs other neighboring countries.

You’re missing the point. This is a recruitment post. People serving are raising red flags that this person displays behaviors that would make him a liability in that role. Therefore posting this makes people LESS likely to join vs more likely. It also makes other foreign fighters far less likely to agree to do a video like this themselves.

@RachelPAV @UAFRC Sounds very russian approach to me, to do with war veterans, that repeats from WW2 - out of sight, out of mind. So what's come first, we do it for pleasant picture or we want to hear war veterans telling their stories!?

🇺🇸🇺🇦 An American volunteer shares why he came to fight for Ukraine. After 9/11 he tried to join the military but was rejected because of a misdiagnosed eye condition. Years later, when russia launched its invasion, he saw it as his chance to finally stand up and make a difference. Watch his story 👇

@ayeshaijazkhan The Dubai airport has been targeted multiple times and is a civilian target. That isn’t a military base it’s an airport used by millions of civilians.

Unlike the US and Israel, Iran hasn't targeted civilians. If civilians are dying because of debris from intercepted drones that is an unfortunate cost of war. Iran's main beef are the US bases used against it in the war. The countries suffering should rethink the utility of those bases.
Monica Marks@MonicaLMarks

People are absolutely right to call out Gulf states when they commit human rights abuses of migrant workers. But it’s appallingly hypocritical to do that without condemning the country that’s actually killing them right now—Iran. Many of those killed have been here in the UAE.
