Also, the founder of the Wagner PMC said that there are traitors in the presidential administration of Russia who want the Russian Federation to lose.
Sharp criticism of the head of Wagner PMC, Russian businessman Yevgeny Prigozhin, is aimed at undermining confidence in the Russian Ministry of Defense and promoting it as < strong>“the face of the Russian “special operation” in Ukraine”.
This is stated in the report of the American Institute for the Study of War (ISW).
Analysts cite one of the latest statements by Prigozhin, where he criticized the new instructions of the Ministry of Defense for Russian troops in Ukraine, which restrict the use of certain personal electronic devices in combat zones actions and set stricter guidelines for male appearance standards. According to the financier, “war is the time of the active and courageous, and not of the clean-shaven, who handed over their phones to the warehouse.”
Also, the founder of PMC “Wagner” said that there are traitors in the administration of the President of Russia, whose goal is to lose the Russian Federation. The ISW notes that “this is one of Prigozhin's most daring attacks on the Kremlin to date.”
There is a struggle for power in the Kremlin between the Ministry of Defense and the Wagner CHIK
Evgeny Prigozhin, the head of the Wagner private military company, is trying to compete with the RF Ministry of Defense and other oligarchs for funding and will not give up so easily in this struggle for power.
According to military expert Oleg Zhdanov, civil wars await Russia, and the Putin regime is doomed. He noted that inside Russia there is a struggle for power between the Ministry of Defense and the Wagner CHIK, that is, between Shoigu and Prigozhin.
As previously written at the Institute for the Study of War ISW, Prigozhin continues to use mercenaries in Soledar, Donetsk region, to strengthen the reputation of their company as the only effective fighting force in the Russian Federation.
