That’s according to the commander of the Georgian Legion, fighting alongside Ukrainian soldiers, Mamuka Mamulashvili, who spoke with Ukrainian Pravda, as reported by Ukrinform.
"We had a much higher opinion of them (the Russian army - ed.) than they actually turned out to be. This is a completely unprepared grouping of troops, although it is quite large. In terms of professionalism, it is no better than the troops of Somalia or any other country, which specifically don’t particularly pay attention to their army personnel,” the commander said.
“Also, thank God, there’s corruption in the Russian army. It has helped us a lot and I hope it continues to expand. So as a military man, I would say... I prefer to not underestimate the enemy, but professionally they were not even prepared for what they were going to see in Ukraine. And many of them died," Mamulashvili noted.
