He’s on his own !
dude probably just wanted to harm people
A thousand a month? Guy must have needed the money to pay for medication.
Wouldn't U S do the same
I'll keep my ass right here in America.
That journalist started well then played the politics game russia is not targeting Americans if American's stayed home, what a joke…
Only 7 years they were handing out death penalties before
Sentencing for mercenary in Ukraine, just listen. Sentenced for fighting in Ukraine against ruzzia, which has no claim on another country. That would be the same if swedes would be sentenced in Finland by soviets in 1939 because they helped get soviet Union expelled from Finland. Retards
The whole country of Ukraine is NATO mercenaries (PMCs of globalists).
Fake news! No one, not even Ukraine would put a 72 year old in combat. Why, so he can take 2 hours to walk three blocks!
Why did this American take up arms against the Russians? He wanted to get the big salary promised by Zelensky. But the Ukrainian oligarchs cheated people like him outright. He stood up against the Russians – now he is punished. The Yankees are going home.
72 yr old, ignorant. He wasn't ready, after a lifetime. Like every other old person, who belongs in a nursing home or nut house, thinking he can do the work of a 20 yr old. So old, 2.5 entire army careers & he still didn't die. Imagine Biden's age, he would have tripped & broken an arm osteoporosis, looking for his nap-time pills on the battlefield. A guy like that, better left in jail he's too dangerous, can't be released in public.
CROOKE AMERICA INVADED IRAQ AND SYRIA TRYING STEAL OIL
He want there to fight Russia and get caught by Russia what u think he lucky he still alive the people who catch him he was killing
The Russians didn't kill him, which means they want to keep him to swap
I feel no sympathy, that's what his dumb ass get for fighting for another country
Stupid
is that the same old fool they showed and bragged how old he was on big news some time back ?
What a DUMBASS!!!!!!!!
Russia is being merciful toward some who deserve no mercy.
If you travel to Africa, you could be eaten by a lion. If you travel to Australia then a snake might get you. Go to a backward country and you can be locked up for years. All travel has risks.
