Russian nationalist Igor Girkin, who is currently serving a sentence in a Russian prison for calling for extremist activity, is requesting to be sent to fight in Ukraine. Girkin’s lawyer told the Russian media. The former FSB secret service officer commanded pro-Russian separatist militias in eastern Ukraine since spring 2014, but was recalled to Russia in August of the same year.

From 2022, Russian prisoners are routinely involved in the Russian invasion of Ukraine, but those convicted of extremism are prohibited from being sent to war. This is also Girkin’s case. However, according to the RBK agency, the lawyer said that one of the units in the so-called Donetsk People’s Republic, which is an internationally unrecognized entity declared in eastern Ukraine by pro-Russian separatists and later annexed by Russia, is interested in his client as a commander.

Girkin, also known by the nickname Strelkov, was sentenced to four years behind bars for extremism calls in January this year. Russian justice focused on this supporter of the Russian invasion of Ukraine after he criticized the Russian leadership on the Telegram platform for the lack of decisiveness in the war.
