Ex-Soldier Describes Trump Assassination Suspect's Troubled Ukraine Stint

Ryan Routh, 58, was seen as a liability in Ukraine during his volunteer efforts, where he proposed recruiting Afghans. Despite his public support, Ukraine confirmed he never fought for its military. Ukrainian spokesman Heorhii Tykhyi stressed the suspect's actions shouldn't be linked to Ukraine.
Ryan Routh, 58, arrested after an assassination attempt on Donald Trump, was seen as a liability by some in Ukraine, where he offered to recruit Afghans.

He supported Ukraine publicly and spent time in Kyiv after Russia's 2022 invasion.

Former soldier Evelyn Aschenbrenner called him delusional, stating he believed only he could aid Ukraine.

Despite his claims, Ukraine confirmed Routh never fought in its military.

Ukrainian spokesman Heorhii Tykhyi stressed the suspect's actions shouldn't be linked to Ukraine.

Routh allegedly compiled a list of Afghan citizens for recruitment but was told to stop acting outside established frameworks.
