The political figure of Yevgeny Prigozhin in Russia is quite specific. As long as he is beneficial to Vladimir Putin, he does whatever he wants, but when he becomes unnecessary, they will kill him without hesitation.
A political expert and Valeriy Klochok, Head of the Center for Public Analytics “Tower” According to him, Prigozhin went public, which testifies to his political ambitions.
Back to news content In fact, he and Vladimir Putin will compete on the same political field.
Putin is a classic Nazi who today propagates that Russia is the highest nation on the planet and it must fight the entire Western world to prevent the spread of democracy because the West brings democracy, and Russia is totalitarianism and dictatorship. – said Klochok.

The expert and head of the Center for Public Analytics “Tower” is convinced that fate Prigozhin is completely in Putin's hands, and at the right moment “collective Putin” will decide whether Prigozhin is needed further or not.
