Britain sends over 100 elite troops to Ukraine

Is wagner nazi?
How did you get to that conclusion?

They're a bunch of ultranationalist mercs, with fascistic tendencies.

Russia claimed Ukraine was overtaken by Nazi influences and neo nazi groups but in reality those exist too for Russia. I don't think this is much of a talking point on Russia's side but their effort to make and send the right message is clear and the audience for that is small but it's small effort too to dig out photos of Ukrainians posing with salute.

However we should remember that further back it was NATO side who started this problem by first with post soviet fall expansion and breaking promise. Breaking promise of course means response and consequence, Russia didn't give them any for taking up three previous Soviet countries or countries of Eastern Bloc/ Soviet Bloc. Next NATO then incited 2014 internal power change on Ukraine. Ukraine is red line for Russia in terms of accepting NATO expansion.

NATO broke three promises and took three steps towards Russia with an axe to kill while Russia only now responded. It's not good but it didn't come from no reason. Russia does not want its economy like this and stability or risk like this. It certainly was pushed and pushed and pushed until it has to draw a line somewhere. So why no blame on NATO while all the blame on Russia? I don't think Russians ever wanted to do this in Ukraine and to Ukraine. It is a tragedy for Russians and Ukrainians both. Instead of the culprit being somewhere in this group of two, look west.

Mercenaries yes.
But how do to get to other conclusions.
A mercenary by definition is not a nationalist.

It's a merc force on paper, it pretty much only works for the Russian government, and to expand Russian interests. Quite different from say blackwater.

Can the Ukrainians stomach it?

Iraq was full of Muslims many of whom did not fear death...

Don’t think orthodox Christians are afraid of death either, these people also made it hell for nazis nearly a century ago.
