Prigozhin on the progress of the SVO: We shit our pants
Russia has currently failed both key objectives of the special operation in Ukraine, announced by Vladimir Putin at the beginning of the Northern Military District - demilitarization and denazification.
This is the opinion of the head of the Wagner PMC, Evgeny Prigozhin. In an interview with ex-speaker of the DPR Foreign Ministry Konstantin Dolgov, the head of the “musicians” recalled that Moscow hoped to return Ukraine to the “pro-Russian fold.”
“If we are creating a pro-Russian fold, we need to change the top of the government, kiss the people’s ass and invite them to join us.
What have we done? We boorishly walked across the entire territory with our boots in search of Nazis. While they were looking for Nazis, they killed everyone they could. They approached Kyiv, then, as I call it in Russian, they shit themselves and moved away.
Then to Kherson - they shit themselves and moved away. After this or before this - Izyum, Krasny Lyman.
And somehow things don’t work out for us.
Joseph Vissarionovich would have drawn conclusions - he shot 200 people... But we have not made any conclusions yet,” stated the head of the PMC.
According to him, the tasks of denazification and demilitarization have not only not been fulfilled, but on the contrary, the situation has only become worse for Russia.
“The SVO was done for the sake of denazification... And we made Ukraine a nation that is known throughout the world. Ukraine was legitimized...
Now regarding demilitarization.
If at the beginning of the special operation they had about 500 tanks, now they have five thousand. If 20 thousand fought skillfully, then now there are 400 thousand. How did we demilitarize it? Now we, on the contrary, who knows how, have militarized it.
I can tell you from my own experience. We fought in many places and with whom. We know how the Americans and the French fight, how the useless, cowardly UN troops fight, how the African tribes fight.
PMC Wagner is the best army in the world. We won always and everywhere... PMC Wagner is the best army, and behind it - I should say “Russian army”, etc. out of correctness, but I think that the Ukrainians today are one of the strongest armies.
They have a high level of organization, training, intelligence, they work on any systems - Soviet, NATO - equally successfully. And they are absolutely philosophical about the losses they suffer. For them, everything happens to achieve a goal - just like we did during the Great Patriotic War. But it’s more technologically advanced and clearer,” Prigozhin said.
He was outraged by the unhindered penetration of a group of Ukrainian terrorists into the Belgorod region in armored vehicles.
“Our defense is not ready to counteract them in any way. In no normal civilized state that has a conflict with its neighbors, the DRG cannot cross the border ribbon. In Syria it was impossible to cross any demarcation line...
Where is the guarantee that this DRG will not come to Moscow tomorrow?” – said Prigozhin.
In his opinion, those in charge behave as if until the terrorists find themselves near the elite mansions on Rublevskoye Highway near Moscow, “nobody gives a damn about the Belgorod region.”
