There is tons of EU countries troops in Ukraine, but officially they are all "volunteers" and "mercenaries" but there's also some more or less official NATO soldiers serving as military advisors, trainers etc. There's also events like the Polish general Marczak suddenly dying in sketchy circumstances coincidentally on the same day when Russia heavily bombed one of the mercenary bases.
