When you're fighting an invasion of your country, its a bad time to quibble about the ideological purity of the other people on your side of the line.

It really is possible to find shared goals and cooperate on achieving them with people who do not totally agree with you. Once the immediate threat is addressed, those people might be the next item on the agenda; but this is "stand together or fall separately" territory.

That may be reasonable; I think it's important to consider how any party's involvement will be remembered as well, though. What groups will be glorified? Will that affect the way that those groups behave, what they feel proud about, and how they are treated in future?

There are a lot of roles required in successfully defending against an invasion -- maintenance, transport, heavy lifting, fighting, cooking; to name a few. Effective task assignment can be a resilience multiplier in the moment and also has a long-term echo.

Unless who is trying to propagate this information, works together or for Russia.
