At the beginning of the full-scale invasion of russia, a large number of foreign citizens expressed a desire to join the Ukrainian resistance and defend Ukraine and international security together with the Ukrainian Armed Forces. 


The participation of foreigners in the war against russia is regulated by the International Legion at the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine, a separate special unit of the International Legion of Defense of Ukraine.


Today, thousands of foreigners are defending Ukraine and helping us to fight for the country's freedom. In particular, the opportunity to join the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has become available to Spanish-speaking candidates.


Here's how to join the International Legion and what are the requirements for candidates.


The Foreign Legion now accepts foreigners who speak Spanish: details


The opportunity to apply is now available even if you do not speak English or Ukrainian but know Spanish. This also applies to those without military experience, as the team has Spanish-speaking trainers. 


For your convenience, the International Legion has developed a Spanish version of the website and application. Also, the Legion is actively working on the formation of a Spanish-speaking support team that will be able to answer all your questions.
