British TRF in Ukraine?
Glancing at this Reuters photograph of President Zelenskiy of Ukraine, the helmet of the soldier to his left caught my eye immediately.
Is that some form of British TRF on his helmet? |

Not sure on the TRF but it looks like a Ukrainian Police badge on it , so possibly one of the "Special Tasks Patrol Police" or "Rapid Operational Response Unit" (KORD) ?

Thanks. It would have been strange if it was British but the style of the star and flash did look so familiar, I wondered if it was a volunteer sporting an emblem from his former service.

This is Zelenskyy posing with police and army, not his bodyguard.
Maksym Donets is head of the President’s Security Service and is seen in a lot of photos where he's within four to five metres of Zelenskyy. He was a bodyguard for a former Ukrainian oligarch before becoming Zelenskyy's bodyguard in 2019. Apparently, Zelenskyy's party has a contract with a company that deals with security and safety. All gifts of food and drink are sent to be tested before being given to Zelenskyy. I have no idea what Maksym Donets' military background is. medium_2022-06-24-91cbe032f3.jpg |
