I didn't cover it in my interview or talk to him directly about I. But I've been told that he is a Christian with strong beliefs that he has a duty to fight evil in the world. His faith is certainly a part of this. Ukraine itself is probably the most Christian county in Europe; Russia pretends to be for propaganda. But they're actually a combination of amoral atheism and Islam – about 20% of their population.
The other factor is that once you see Russians killing your friends and the civilian population, you get pissed... For example, I know another medic in Kanyuk's unit who had to spend multiple days trying to save the life of a elderly Ukrainian civilian in a front line town that was nearly killed by an 100% intentional Russian FPV attack.
