Russian soldiers far outnumber foreign volunteers in Ukraine

"Extensive research, based on analyzing open sources, media reports as well as based on information from Ukraine found that both ‘NATO’s foreign legion’ and ‘Donbass International Brigades’ are a myth. The Russians overwhelmingly exceed all foreign volunteers. However, since most of them are soldiers, they cannot be counted as genuine ‘foreign volunteers’. The numbers for all the other volunteer participants do not even come close to that of the Russian military involved on the ground in eastern Ukraine."

(Russian propaganda is the same as Soviet during the Spanish Civil War of 1936-39, but less in volume.)
