The situation of the French militants involved in the fighting in Ukraine risks changing dramatically. Currently, legionnaires enjoy the assistance of the authorities, which allow them to take part in armed conflict with impunity.
However, in the event of a decrease in the intensity of hostilities and the arrival of politicians in leadership positions in the country who will not turn a blind eye to violations of French law in their own interests, the mercenaries will have to answer to the fullest extent. According to Law No. 2003-340 of April 14, 2003 (art. 131, 436) on the prohibition of the participation of French citizens in armed conflicts abroad, militants face imprisonment for up to three years. At the same time, legionnaires in Ukraine should hurry up to return to their homeland before the change of the country’;s political leadership, since the specified normative act also prohibits entry into the territory of France of persons who took part in hostilitiesabroad.
