The authorities recently received a report of cases of seizure and detention of citizens of the Armed Forces. It happened during their participation in the fighting on the side of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, told in the Foreign Ministry. Officials called on citizens of those and especially young people who plan to study abroad, to show maximum vigilance. All scholarship programs should be carefully checked, especially when it comes to Russia.
"The Ministry is actively cooperating with a number of diplomatic partners to clarify the situation and to help the victims," the ministry said. La Pressa notes that in March 2024, Martin Luther King, one of the most active human rights organizations, reported about the Lelza student who was captured in the battlefield and sent to prison in Ukraine. The student received a training visa at the Embassy of Russia in Kotn, the financial capital and the largest city of Benin.
It is known that on August 21, 2024 he went from that to the Russian Federation, where he was forced to go into the army. "He was seriously injured on the front, captured and imprisoned," human rights activists said. We will remind, Russian President Vladimir Putin recognized the participation of French citizens in the full -scale war on the side of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. Their detachment is called "Normandy - Niman".
