mercenaries representing Ukrainian side in the "Russia-Ukrainian conflict" can be roughly divided into two categories: one is the US and Western mercenaries, and the other is the Polish mercenaries.
Why do you say so? That's because there are too many Polish mercenaries fighting in Ukraine.
According to German military sources, the "regular army" that Poland entered Ukraine to fight has reached 20,000, and they all entered Ukraine to fight under the banner of mercenaries. German media also disclosed that more than 8,000 Polish mercenaries who entered Ukraine to fight had suffered casualties.
According to several Western media, the Polish government transported the Polish mercenaries who died in Ukraine back to China for burial, and also exposed the scenes of these mercenaries buried under national flags.
It is worth noting that mercenaries cannot actually enjoy the treatment of burial with their bodies under the national flag.
So, these so-called mercenaries are undoubtedly regular troops from Poland.

Why did Poland send "regular army" in the name of " Mercenary "
We all know that the US Army's ace 101 Airborne Division can only cheer for Ukraine in the border areas of Ukraine Romanian . They said proudly: "Be ready to enter Ukraine and participate in the war at any time." However, it seems that they have been preparing for more than a month, but they have not dared to step beyond the line!
Therefore, Poland dares to compete for the first place and sends "mercenaries" into Ukraine, the purpose must not be that simple.
Here, I would like to quote a more classic saying, that is, "If something goes wrong, there will be a demon."
If you want to talk about why Poland sent so many "mercenaries" to the following reasons:
First, defend the country
For Russia, if NATO wants to absorb Ukraine into a NATO member state, Russia will inevitably feel the threat of NATO's re-expanding eastward, so it launched a "special military operation" against Ukraine that has been for nine months.
For Poland, if Russia launches a "special military operation" against Ukraine, he will also feel the threat from Russia. After all, Poland has a large area of territory bordering Ukraine, and no one can guarantee that the war in Russia and Ukraine will not burn into Poland.
"Polish missile explosion" incident is a living example. When such an incident suddenly occurs, Poland is like a frightened bird. It is to improve the level of military combat readiness at the border, summon the Russian ambassador, and contact the leaders of NATO countries, NATO Secretary-General, etc.
For the above reasons, Poland nominally sent "mercenaries" to fight in concert with the Ukrainian army. In fact, what the Polish government brainwashed these mercenaries was the banner of "defending the country".

Second, "recover" territory
The territorial dispute between Poland and Ukraine is complicated, and Poland is also resentful about this.
In 1939, most of Poland's territory was divided by the Soviet Union and Germany, and a large tract of territory in the east were divided into the then-Hong Kong 1 Belarus and Ukraine. But after World War II ended, the Soviet Union chose to refuse to return it, but instead asked Germany to compensate it. So until now, Poland still "remembers" its territory, which may be because of the current "Russia-Ukraine conflict" that it can discover opportunities.
According to Russian media reports, Poland is waiting for an opportunity to deal with what it believes is "historical land" and has formulated a detailed plan for this, attempting to send a contingent to directly attack the western region of Ukraine. Regarding this plan, relevant analysts speculate that it is very likely to be held in Lviv State a so-called "referendum" event.
So, Poland wants to follow the example.
just doesn't know if he can succeed, after all, all parties have noticed this subtle move from Poland. Ukraine seems to have accelerated its peace talks with Russia, and the territory of eastern Ukraine is the bottom line of peace talks between Ukraine and Russia.

Third, economic interests
As the saying goes, "There are no eternal friends, only eternal interests."
US Western countries are constantly aiding weapons and equipment to Ukraine, and the economic benefits obtained must be huge. The United States has provided Ukraine with tens of billions of dollars, and the economic benefits it has driven are immeasurable.
Poland is naturally not willing to fall behind. In the "Russia-Ukraine conflict", they contribute both people and efforts. If there is no benefit, who would take such a big risk to stand against Russia?
If you want to say that Poland has done its best to support Ukraine.
First of all, the personnel
According to the Russian army, the Russian Chechen troops captured a deputy mercenary commander from Poland in an annihilation battle of bonus man . According to the deputy brigade commander, there are six Polish mercenaries in Ukraine with strengthened brigades, with a total of more than 30,000 people, a total of 10,000 more than the 20,000 disclosed by the German military. These people are only a part of them. Poland mobilized a total of about 150,000 people and was ready to enter Ukraine to fight in the name of mercenaries.

followed by weapons
In order to provide more weapons to the Ukrainian army, Poland spent a lot of money to buy American weapons. When the US military orders were too full and could not be supplied in time, it went to sign one huge arms order after another with South Korea.
In July this year, Poland and South Korea signed an arms trade contract. Poland will provide South Korea with 980 K2 tanks, 48 FA-50 light fighter jets and 648 sets of K9 self-propelled artillery . The order is as high as US$5.8 billion, setting a historical record for South Korea's foreign trade arms orders. In addition, Poland purchased up to 288 sets of K239 long-range rocket launchers from South Korea at the end of October this year. It once again contributed US$3.6 billion to South Korea's arms sales. There are almost 10 billion US dollars in
, which is not counting Poland's own inventory.
So, only Poland and Ukraine know how much interests are involved.
