US Contractor Greystone Denies Its ‘Mercenaries’ in Ukraine

“The Russian government today claimed there are more than 100 American ‘mercenaries’ from a defense contracting company disguised as Ukrainian troops in the embattled former Soviet nation, a claim the American firm and top U.S. officials deny.

The Russian Foreign Ministry made the allegation in a statement today that accused Ukrainian military forces of working with ‘illegal armed militias’ and others, saying the ministry is ‘especially concerned’ about the involvement of 150 American mercenaries from the private company Greystone Ltd., a former affiliate of Blackwater.”
