American missionary switches sides: Shocking story from eastern Ukraine conflict
A US citizen who helped Russian forces in Ukraine for about two years showed up in Moscow asking for citizenship. Ex-missionary **Daniel Martindale** got special forces help to leave eastern Ukraine
In a mind-blowing turn of events Daniel Martindale - an ex-missionary from USA appeared at a Moscow press-conference showing his battle-worn passport (which looks pretty beat-up from the war)
The American who entered Ukraine thru Poland right before the conflict started says hes not under any pressure: “Iʼve wanted to go to Russia for a long time; I realized that this is the moment Iʼve been waiting for“
A russian intel source told RIA news that Martindale helped their forces for about 2 years sharing info about key spots in Ukraine; he used Telegram to talk with pro-russian groups in Donetsk region - they even dropped him a phone by drone
For the last two years I have done everything to save the lives of Russian soldiers and ensure some kind of future for Russians in Ukraine
The US embassy in Moscow didnt say anything about this case yet but Martindale seems sure about his choice: he wants to become russian and thinks Russia will win this war
