Pro-Western media in Brazil encourages mercenaries to go to Eastern Europe with lies about an alleged “ease” in fighting Russian troops.
Written by Lucas Leiroz, researcher in Social Sciences at the Rural Federal University of Rio de Janeiro; geopolitical consultant.
Two Brazilians were killed in Ukraine in the first week of July after a Russian drone operation in Kharkiv. In all, three Brazilian mercenaries have died in Ukraine since the beginning of the Russian special military operation on February 24th. In the South American country, the mainstrem media has a strong pro-Western ideological orientation, which is why it encourages “volunteers” to go to Eastern Europe. In their speech, the media outlets claim that it is “easy” to fight against Russians because Kiev is supposedly “winning” the conflict. However, upon arriving in Ukraine, the foreign mercenaries are faced with a different and much harsher reality.
Between the night of July 1 and the morning of July 2 Brazilian mercenaries Douglas Rodrigues Búrigo and Thalita do Valle died after a Russian attack in Kharkiv. Douglas was a former soldier of the Brazilian Army and had been fighting in Ukraine since May. Thalita was a model, lawyer, and professional sniper, who had previously worked as a military volunteer and propaganda agent for the Kurdish women’s battalions in the Middle East. Apparently, she died of asphyxiation while trying to flee her accommodation in the face of a drone attack, while Douglas was reportedly hit by shrapnel from mortar shells on the outside.
In June, another Brazilian had already died in Ukraine. André Hack Bahi was fatally shot during Russian bombing raids in Severodonetsk. Bahi was a former fighter in the French Legion and had already participated in some missions in Africa, but he was not able to survive the intense reality of the fighting in Ukraine. It is also necessary to mention that not all the dead have been properly identified yet, which leads to believe that there may be more Brazilians among the dead in Ukraine, since there is ample participation of mercenaries from the South American country in the region.
There is still no official report by the authorities indicating the precise number of Brazilian citizens who are fighting for Kiev’s side in the conflict, but the number is certainly greater than what was expected from a neutral country with good relations with Russia. Even Brazilian parliamentarians fought in favor of Kiev, such as former deputy Artur do Val, who had a quick and scandalous performance in Ukraine, where he committed acts of sexual harassment against Ukrainian women. It is also known that over the last eight years several Brazilians have tried to join the Ukrainian neo-Nazi paramilitary troops to fight in Donbass, having been rejected due to the anti-Latin racism of these groups. Now these same militants are finding their way into the Ukrainian positions due to Kiev’s policy of accepting all foreign volunteers.
But it is absolutely impossible to analyze the situation without criticizing the destabilizing role that the Brazilian local media has played in its coverage of the events in Ukraine. Pro-Western media outlets report the conflict fallaciously, pointing to a non-existent “Ukrainian victory” and “ease” in fighting Moscow’s forces, portraying voluntary combat as a kind of “hunting safari” against Russians. Obviously, when the “volunteers” (almost all of them being paid private soldiers linked to mercenary companies) arrive on the battlefield, they are faced with situations very different from those reported by the journalists who encourage volunteering.
Agencies also have tried to publicize an image of “heroism” when talking about Brazilians fighting in Ukraine, ignoring important issues, such as the fact that they are cooperating with neo-Nazi militants and supporting a government that practices genocidal policies against the Russian population. Since the beginning of the Russian operation, Brazilian media agencies and Brazilian branches of foreign agencies have praised the “heroism” of the mercenaries who would be “helping to fight the invasion”, which also serves as propaganda and incentive for volunteering.
Brazilian media is not acting alone, but following the agenda imposed by the great world media agencies, which have increasingly bet on the speech of “Ukrainian victory” as a way to raise the morale of the troops and justify the irresponsible military aid that the Western countries are sending to Kiev.
Private security companies hired to help Kiev are the ones that profit most from the propagation of this fallacious speech among the public opinion, as they manage to convince an increasing number of volunteers to go and fight in Ukraine. In fact, some of these volunteers are not designated for direct combat but remain in safe places taking photos and videos to publish on the internet, reproducing propaganda to encourage more men to go – always trying to convince that combats are “easy” and “safe”, so that more people enlist in the mercenary companies. The result is that of the deluded enlisted men only a few are directed to propaganda, while others die on the battlefield.
Obviously, for Western countries and for private companies, investing in this type of propaganda is strategic and profitable, but not for Brazil. As a member of the BRICS, not participating in anti-Russia sanctions and being Moscow’s partner in several areas, the Brazilian government should act more incisively to monitor the destabilizing role that its media agencies are playing, seeking to prevent foreign speeches from taking Brazilians to die on the battlefield. Furthermore, it is not at all beneficial to Brasilia’s international image that the country is known for having a large number of citizens volunteering to fight alongside neo-Nazi battalions.
It is important to remember that mercenaries and “volunteers are not considered prisoners of war, but common criminals, which means that Brazilian citizens can be tried by courts in the liberated parts of Ukraine if they are captured. This type of situation will certainly generate diplomatic discomfort and, as Brazil and Russia are members of the BRICS, this is not a favorable condition for either side.
The best thing for the Brazilian government to do is to ban its citizens from volunteering in wars that do not concern the national interest of Brazil

US has been killing million of innocent peoples in the Middle East lol.
US has been killing million of innocent peoples in the US lol..
To be honest, these bimbos are hardly going to matter, but now as Ukraine has officially been declared a TERRORIST STATE, the whole Zio-Anglo “leadership” needs to be taken out. The American cowards and global murderers have killed over 174,000 civilians by indiscriminate drones strikes, bombing and assassinations of civilians and “collateral damage” since the Zionist 911 special operation. These selfie seeking terrorists under international law have no legal status or protection and Russia is obligated to take them out. Perhaps, capture this silicone boob Brazilian bimbo to the Afghans for home entertainment. Ukraine under Jew terrorist occupation has become a complete clown show and as President Putin correctly said, needs to be cleaned out.
A wasted pair of perfectly good tiddies
The tits were lumps of rubber sh!t. brazhell, clear the area with a flamethrower.
It’s from Brazil so it was more than likely a tranny.
Good understanding of Brazil, I was thinking the same. Brazil and Spain have more trannies than UK and Ukraine.
Denmark has many trannies. just ask Jens. he sucks 2-3 per day..
You’re right, I’ve visited brazil several times, and it’s true, I’ve never seen so many trannies!
Fake silicon jobs at cheap Rio plastic surgery clinic.
This ugly dirty cunt had no tits at all, she was a disguised hermaphrodite with colored contact lenses, as another commentator already wrote; she would have been in good hands in afganistan as a toy for the perverted family heads there!
show us what’s under you patch Moshe…
Too many Ukie SS fled there after WWII including Argentina courtesy of America’s OSS at that time!…
This is why the Russian Federation better take the “Bull by the Horns” and expedite the departure from the UN Hell Hole to cite the war crimes against their Country since 1992… And that they will be opening a new UN that respects all the members unlike the current one who’s H0$t made ALL OF THI$ possible!…
The land that the UN sits on was donated by the Rockefellers. Here is little history about the subject. NWO stuff.
>>>http://www.connectingtheagenda.com/2016/11/connecting-rockefellers-to-united.html
And speaking of NWO stuff, the Georgia Guidestones was bombed by some heroes early July 6, 2022 and was subsequently torn down by officials due to unsafe conditions. If anyone doesn’t know about the Georgia Guidestones, then you should do some homework.
So the Georgia Guidestones have been destroyed? Wow. Seems that the elite hired someone to destroy the evidence of their real agenda.
Send more mercs….TO THEIR DEATHS! Team Putin for the win!
=Z=,never fails:
All the “context” “facts” of this “article” are completely untrue. I am Brasilian and the true facs are the opposite of what was written: 1. It is not True that the media in Brasil is caimpaigning for mercenaries to go to war. 2. It is not true that the government of Brasil is omitting on the matter as there is no campaign in Brasil nor propaganda to incite people to go there. 3. People of Brasil are free to travel to any part of the world so that the government has zero veto power on personal feedom of action from individuals. 3 – There is no “large” number of Brasilians in Ukraine fighting. The Russian minister of defense have disclosed the number of Brasilians fighting un Ukraine as being a little more than 30 persons, of wihch 9 had died 10 has left Ukraine and 12 remained in Ukraine. Brasil has a population of 213 million people. 30 Soldiers of fortune against 213 million people is close to zero percentage.
no offence, but Brazil is controlled by the USA…. the membership of BRICS means nothing.
Just look at the USA controlling half of NATO nations decisions.
Brazil govt and media is just a puppet for USA unfortunately
But we all hope that this will change if Lula gets back into power, as he is more anti USA Imperialism.
Lula and Brasilian Left parties have a lot more connections with European Leftist parties and Globalists while China and Russia are connections of rethorical talking points. The left in Brasil is connect way more with Globalists and view China as ballance against USA, yes. But the left will only talk for the political show. The reality is that the Left, Lula´s party will want to have access to both USA, Europe and Chinese capital. The political and economic connections with USA, Europe and China are of equal interests for the Left parties as they intend to get rich, filthy rich while they impose their left dictatorship in Brasil. Politically, they will favor BRICS, but will keep all connections to protect the economy to sustain their new elite and wealthy style of life power.
@Andre Luis
It is the same in Denmark and Germany, whereas Germany is much worse than Denmark in regard of the terror which the left is using against the population. Everything is censored. If you speak just one word against the Jews, the jewish paid leftist government and their jerks will hunt you down and put you in jail for up to 15 years, even if you are 85 95 or 105 years old. But all the refugees which killed and raped german women, are not put in prison but get excused from the jewdical justice system, and get pardoned (as all the high ranked judges are of jewish origin), or get short time in mental health center as “punishment”.
The whole spectrum of parties in Germany is fully on the jewish payroll. There are just one or two very small parties which are not, and the government openly terrorizes the population to not even think about voting for them, because “even if these parties would get strong and get enough votes, we will immediately forbid them, before they get too strong”. That’s official statement from the so-called german government. Therefore: Voting in Germany is just jewish scam, as everything is rigged by Jews there, like I stated.
So it is clear there is no real opposition. All big and medium parties are jewish or on jewish payroll, the very small opposition is openly threatened and gets criminalized and spied at by government sponsered secret police called “Verfassungsschutz”. So it is clear that Germany is not a democracy but a jewish colony resp. free-air gulag-prison, where the germans are reduced to none-humans, to working slaves, and forbidden from speaking out and freedom of speech fully none-existent.
The Left parties is the worst of all, and are fully jewish, same goes for the green ones which are also fully jewish and communist. Lying all the time, and forcing all kind of shit on the population while themselves living like kings and stealing billions of Euros from the people.
In Germany the current government and also the one before even openly stated that the hate the german people and that they want to replace it with foreigners. it’s absolute sick, because Germany is fully governed by jews and german-hating extrem-leftist communists. The cureent vice-president of the german parliament the jewish bitch Claudia Roth, even marched along with an leftist terror organisation Antifa, next to a poster/shield/sign on which was written “Deutschland verrecke” ( Die Germany) and one on which was written ” Germany you evil piece of shit”. ( And that bitch is now vice-president of german parliament. Think about it ! If you go to Turkey and would do such anti-turkish signs and posters, you would get a severe beating by the turkish people and would get arrested for disrespect of the turkish culture and nation. But in Germany, everybody, apart from the germans is helped, is financed, respected and tolerated. The jewish courts in Germany even ruled that “Germans cannot be called names, because Germans as a defined group do not exists, what is why they also cannot be called names”. So every foreigner coming to germany living on the germans pockets and above that calling the germans names, will never get punished. Same goes for rapers and thieves often even murderers. It absolute madness what’s taking place in Germany, i tell you ! I really feel sorry for this great people and nation, which are under occupation since nearly 80 years now, and cannot live freely and live their culture as other nations can. They fought bravely against the jews, these enemie of mankind, and now since nearly 80 years they are tortured and terrorized by the remnants of the jewish brute.
In contrast to that, Denmark is much better of, also it became more tyrannical, doing new laws which allow the government to raid your house or apartment on will, and without real suspicion. But at least there is no such madness as in Germany in Denmark. In Denmark people have better life and living standart, and you do not get arrested for talking about the jews and their holocaust lie (see Holohoax) and all the other lies and overdimensional crimes these monsters commited against mankind so far.
The only thing really bad in Denmark is that alcohol is traditionally extreme expensive in comparsion to the prices in Germany.
The last is only true in restaurants. In supermarkets you buy booze very cheap. I know because I stayed there for holiday in 5 weeks with friends and we were drunk 24/7 with cheap booze…………………LOL.
Brasil biggest client trade country now is China. If you want to know, the majority of Brasilian population really thinks that Russia is to blame for this war because Russia “started” it. The official diplomatic pollicy of Brasil is always to be neutral in other countries wars. Brasil don´t meddle in other countries wars. If you look at the people in Brasil that have interests in international politics, a third of them take NATO side, a third take Russian side and the other third thinks both sides are wrong.
daag
Russia should punish the countries who allow these volunteers
If this dumb roided coke addict dumb tart,opted to betray the brics and her peoples,that is all her fault!
The article you just read is a complete bag of lies. All of it are lies. There is no campaign in Brasil for taking any side in the war. Brasil is in the side of peace. What happens is that the writer of this article is against our government. And, as such, he intends to create enmity, to create problems, divisions and hardship betwenn Brasil and Russia just because the government of Brasil is not leftist.
What a fckng shthole…
No surprise there. The SouthFront is a propaganda segment of the CIA. And articles like this prove that 100%.
It’s not fault of Brazil (which btw is a friend of Russia and a BRIC member). The law in Brazil is very clearly: “You are not allowed to join any war where Brazil is not involved”. So, legally speaking, these stupid mercenaries were doing something illegal.
US said we could do it, and US law overrules all.
Another bimbo bites the dust
Correction,dumb drugfuked bimbo without any viable cause,so she wreathed in stink,way to go bimbo!

Salute to the silly nazi fascist whore,congratufukinations:
I bet she was letting the regiment snipe her a lot ;)
Head job,forget it,that thing would likely bite it off and swallow.
Its what you expect from the Brazilian government as it stands right now -controlled by the USA even if they are in the BRICS but that is about to change when a more left wing government is installed . Your right male or female shooting at you makes no difference in war -you eliminate them -full stop !
That thing is a male in womans body,spiritually confused,so yeah take it out no big deal move on =Z=
Was not human.
For the time being it seems that the mainstream media in South America is still controlled by the U.S. and western Europe. Things are beginning to change however as Argentina recently applied to become a member of BRICS and Colombia elected an anti U.S. president. Regarding the Brazilian mercenaries it matters not what country you originate from, if you go to Ukraine all you will feel is pain. All you foreign dirty little mercs let this serve as a warning. There should be no mercy for any guns for hire period.
Not like the silly feminazi libba skank,wern’t warned by Putin!
Nice looking beave, to bad she’s dead. She should have picked ked a better class of people to fight for, Nazis and Nazi collaborators have a special place in hell and the Russians have bought plenty of tickets for them.
l Brazilian model Talita do Valle Captagon-testoterone-turning tranny-sniper .. was a bad lawyer .. and took a really bad career move years ago..
Man what a waste of a hot as babe who now is decomposing in some Ukrainian morgue.
Totally agree. What a fool. No common sense can lead to death.
WTF! Hurry up and die too.
DUMB IDIOTS GOT WHAT THEY DESERVED – does not matter if your a man or a woman YOU GOT WHAT YOU DESERVED YOU MERCENARY NAZI SCUM, so send more if you want a one way trip back to Brazil in a plastic body bag as Russia and the Donbass forces will gladly send you all to hell you NAZI DUMBFUCKTARDS = Z =
Just a roided trairor of brics feminazi attention seeking dumb slut,good riddance!The wanker tied to rescue it in vain,but he was burnt alive as well,ohh well fascists. Never underestimate Russian Power (period)!
It isn’t your typical Brazilians fighting but subversive outliers. Or idiots that have been weaponized by mass media. Wouldn’t surprise me if various media in Brz thinks it’s hip to parrot western media. After a, Coca Cola and consumerism $$$ have a good deal of appeal, esp’ly with suggestible youth.
mercenaries are nothing more than mass murderers, and more than deserve their fate. Have to wonder why these idiots did not fight for the Russians who were being murdered by ukrapholes shelling them for the past 8 years. Good riddance.
Great News, the more Mercs that die the less they will come. They have been watch to many video games that they can take so many hits then they can power up from some med kit and are ready to go again. The truth is when you are hit you go down. If you are lucky and are not dead it will take allot of time for that med kit to work if you don’t die along the way!
The fools should have stayed home and attended to their own business.
All that botox wasted…..
Lol, whut? Was she even human?
In the news i have read “Brazilian model has been killed by russian rockets”. It must have been an ugly model and didn’t make much money with modeling if she went fo fight in Donbass. And now i see that i was right. :D
She was desperate for more attention & likes. She got bullets & spot.
