We already reported on Gaston Besson, a French neo-Nazi mercenary in charge of recruiting foreign fighters for Azov battalion, most of them with neo-Nazi affiliations.
Now we know how Besson finds foreign recruits for his infamous battalion.

As the application stresses, "Again - Battalion Azov is a Nationalist Battalion. We are Socialist, Nationalist and Radical."
Of course, Besson mentions that there is a possibility of volunteers dying in Ukraine but, "for sure also great memories and friends for life". Perhaps "great memories of war crimes and nightmares for life" would be more accurate.
Here are some more screenshots from the same Facebook account:
