Not quite the same issue, but...

A Russian media source just found out that several retired Russian generals were presented with Iraqi medals just days before the current war started. Retired Generals Achalov and Maltsev were presented awards from the Iraqi Minister of Defense, according to Gazeta.ru. The article grilled Achalov, who had agreed to be interviewed.
