    nah even natopedia doesn’t attempt to draw this strong of a distinction. They’re composed of the same people (give or take casualties and new recruits), they are the same

    They were folded into the official armed forces as a special operations battalion all the way back in 2014 (and even before that they were sanctioned by the interior department for a while). So all this guy is claiming is “we didn’t give them guns before 2014”, really.
