Kremlin: Western Military Advisors and Instructors in Ukraine Are Fair Targets

Moscow is continuing to warm that Western military instructors and advisors in Ukraine are fair targets, whether they’re there in an official capacity or in the guise of mercenaries. “The fact is that any instructors who are involved in training the military of the Ukrainian regime do not have any immunity,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said yesterday, reported RT. “And it doesn’t matter whether they are French or not.”

“Peskov’s comments came after senior Ukrainian lawmaker Aleksey Goncharenko announced last week that a first group of French military instructors was en route to the country, RT added.. “Earlier, Kiev’s top commander, Aleksandr Syrsky, said he had completed paperwork allowing instructors from France to visit Kiev’s training facilities and familiarize themselves with local infrastructure.”
