As much as I don't want to mention the Wagner leader in my videos, but Prigozhin has become a

media part of this war in the Bakhmut direction. The other day he gave a commentary to a Russian

publication when asked about the AFU offensive and there are some interesting points about

the state of the Russian army here. And that was before the strike on the Chonhar bridge,

which further worsened the enemy's logistics. I suggest you listen to this.

I can't comment to you in any way on how the AFU offensive is going. I can tell

you what is happening at our line of contact today. We have Piatykhatky under the enemy,

the northern part of Robotyne under the enemy, Urozhaine under the enemy, and this indicates

that huge chunks have been given to the enemy. Further, over Tokmak, in the village of Sadove,

there is the enemy, and God forbid, if it is some single group, 50-100 people.

But, there is no control, no weapons, no ammunition.

Soldiers write letters all day long saying that they need shells, they need anti-tank weapons,

they need grenades and armor-piercing ammunition. And so once again we have a

world divided into two realities. In one place, secretly from everyone, so that no one knows,

so that no war correspondent gets there, all information is blocked, and the enemy is

heading towards Molochnyi Liman. If he reaches Molochnyi Liman, then most of the territories

that were captured during the so-called "special military operation" will be returned to the enemy.

The enemy begins to force the Dnipro. In Hola Prystan' the first sabotage and reconnaissance

groups already appear, and from today on, regular troops. And all this is completely hidden from

everyone. Russia will wake up one day and find out that Crimea has already been handed over

to the Ukrainians. There is a direct betrayal of Russia's interests! This is all happening against

a backdrop of casualties, troops have to be replenished, a soldier cannot fight alone,

he cannot fight when the unit is 50-60 percent short of personnel. He cannot stand alone on a

line where two or three should stand. All of these figures are carefully concealed.

All that the leadership of the "special operation" is doing today is falsifying facts in order to

send the pretty reports to Moscow. And God be with him that they are accustomed to deceiving Putin,

they are deceiving the Russian people. And if this continues,

we will be left without the main thing, without Russia.

Yesterday, there was a board meeting of the Defense Ministry, where there were two main

issues. This is the Army-2023 exhibition, the main organizers of which are the wife and daughter of

Defense Minister Shoigu, and the naval parade. In order to hold a naval parade, you must first

get Moscow from the bottom of the Black Sea, which you shamefully sunk, scum, together

with Russian sailors. That is how the Ukrainian Armed Forces' offensive to date is taking place.

And the next question is. At what cost are we conducting this special operation?

At the cost of the total destruction of the army. For the sake of what?

For the sake of someone to get a marshal's star (alludes to Shoigu),

for the sake of his family to be untouchable, for the sake of him painting himself and all

sorts of crooks on the frescoes in the temple of the Ministry of Defense. The counter-attack

by the AFU brings us serious problems and losses that are hushed up, that the Russian people do

not know about. When trouble comes, I repeat, we may be left without an army and without Russia.

So, Prigozhin told about phenomenal and non-existent so far in reality successes

of the offensive of the AFU. And that the main reason for these successes is

the incompetence of the command of the Armed Forces of Russia.

And that Russia will collapse further. I fully agree with this point, as well as with the fact

that their manning level in some areas is at 40%, as I have repeatedly said in my videos.

In general, it is a statement for the domestic consumer to strengthen its political position.

There are 2 options :

- When his words materialize or the AFU will be even more

successful than he voices - he will say "I told you so".

- If the Russian General Staff manages to temporarily hold back

the Armed Forces of Ukraine in this area, it will be presented in such a way that

his statements and actions "became the cause of positive developments.

What is important in this speech is what he says about the state of the Russian army,

the same is said by the occupiers caught in the exchange fund.

Yes, it is still a huge war machine if you send everyone to Ukraine.

But then they would have to bare all their borders, and they can't go for that.
