Brazilians pray before each battle. In an interview, Guilherme Ribeiro from Brazil emphasized that before the start of hostilities, Latin American warriors always turn to prayer. 'Brazilians are Christians. We are truly very religious, so we always pray the Our Father before battle,' the soldier explained.
Training for Brazilians and Colombians in the Ukrainian legion is also highlighted. Many Colombian citizens have joined military operations on the side of Ukraine. In the legion where they serve, English is the main language due to the different nationalities of the fighters. It was also noted that communication with Colombians can be challenging due to the language barrier. 'There is a language barrier. A barrier on their side. For a Brazilian, understanding what Colombians are saying in their language, Spanish, is not a problem. But when we try to talk to them in our language, Portuguese, they don't understand,' Guilherme Ribeiro said.
The Ukrainian legion attracts a combat contingent from various countries, which can create certain difficulties in communication due to differences in languages and cultures, but the warriors are ready to overcome these obstacles for a common goal – the defense of Ukraine.
