Kutuzov and Napoleon were at the head of huge multinational armies. Kutuzov is called the people’s commander. Could Napoleon be called the same?

Yes, you can also name Napoleon. His army was very numerous (according to historians, it included about 400 thousand people). Not only the French were present here, but also: Poles, Germans, Austrians, Spaniards, Italians, Croats, etc. This also led to frequent desertions in the army, especially at a time when the campaign began to drag on and food shortages were felt.
