Arrest These Men
According to one ex-Army commander, two British men who are fighting for Russia in Ukraine should be arrested.

British Fighters in Ukraine
Two British men, Ben Stimson and Aiden Minnis, have been identified as fighting alongside Russian forces in the Donbas region.
Stimson’s Revelation
In one of the videos, Stimson proudly declared that “a lot” of the foreign volunteers have decided to fight for Russia instead of Ukraine.
Joking About the British Taxpayer
Stimson went on to make a joke about the British taxpayer in one video, claiming that a grenade was “British taxpayers’ returns.”
Choosing to Fight for Russia
“Every man takes his choice,” said Stimson in a video, “a lot of us, the foreign volunteers, have chosen to come over to this side, to the Russian side.”
Colonel Slams UK Response
Former Commander of the British Army, Colonel Richard Kemp, has issued a warning to the government, claiming the soldiers should be arrested.
Kemp Calls Out “Absolute Disgrace”
Labelling the pair as “an absolute disgrace,” Kemp argued that the pair should be put in prison as soon as they set foot back on UK soil.
“Traitors” Should Be Jailed
According to Kemp, “These two are an absolute disgrace and are traitors who upon their return to the UK should be arrested and jailed.”
Fighting for the Wrong Side
Kemp accused the two soldiers of having a misunderstanding of the war and who they should be fighting for, “These two traitors clearly don’t know who the enemy is,” he said.

Lord Cameron has dismissed claims that the UK and the West had anything to do with the terrorist attacks, branding Putin’s words as “utter nonsense.”
