Russia has deployed mercenaries but there hasn’t been much talk about mercenaries potentially showing up on the side of Ukraine, and also I haven’t seen much discussion of why they haven’t. Funding shouldn’t be an issue.
We spend a good portion of the last decade saying that the mercenaries in Donbas aren’t really mercenaries but are actually Russian troops.
Russia will likely voice a position that if there’s a sizable number of foreign mercenaries, those are NATO troops.
