“WRONG”

Just telling you that you are WRONG again.
I sent documented facts.

You really should check the info sent. Then, perhaps you will realize just how corrupt Putin has made Russia into a VERY corrupt nation, e.g. from ignoring the Russian Constitution to murdering his opposition.

Wagner Group founder Yevgeny Prigozhin is back to humiliating the Kremlin and threatening to sabotage Vladimir Putin’s war effort.
Allison Quinn - News Editor
Apr. 29, 2023 5:07PM ET

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/stop-deceiving-the-population-russia-s-mercenary-boss-threatens-full-blown-mutiny/ar-AA1axip9

“Russia is on the brink of catastrophe,” he said in an interview with a pro-war military blogger on Saturday, openly calling B.S. on the Kremlin’s repeated claims that all is going according to plan in Ukraine.

“We need to stop deceiving the population and telling them that everything is fine,” he said, accusing Russia’s top military brass of deluding themselves about the war or “not giving a damn.”

Prigozhin blamed his foe, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, for a lack of ammunition that he said could cost Russia the war.

In the nearly hour-and-a-half long video interview—apparently filmed days earlier—he read out a letter he said he’d sent to Shoigu on Friday, in which he issued a brazen ultimatum threatening to pull his mercenaries out from Bakhmut if the defense ministry does not immediately provide the required ammunition.

Apparently for added effect, he also threatened to tattle on Shoigu to Putin personally.

“The bell is already ringing, we’re sounding the alarm,” he said.

The group, he said, has enough rounds of ammunition left only “for days, not weeks.”

When asked if perhaps the military didn’t want to provide weapons to Wagner out of a fear that the mercenary group “might storm the Kremlin” and seize power, Prigozhin conceded that the idea is “interesting” but said he wasn’t focused on staging a coup.

But he made his scorn for military leaders abundantly clear, admitting that the Russian army’s military gains in Ukraine have been laughable.

“What have we even done [since Feb. 24]? We’ve turned the Russian army – the second army in the world – into what? Who the hell knows. … What kind of army are we if we couldn’t even manage with itty bitty Ukraine?”

“It’s a complete mess everywhere, there’s no discipline. The army has everything, but there is absolutely no control, while there is an absolute paranoid gap between that which is happening in the trenches, and that which they know and think about in headquarters.”

He went on to warn that Ukraine’s counteroffensive is right around the corner, but said that among Russia’s military brass, “nobody gives a damn.”

Wagner, he said, is recovering “thousands and thousands” of bodies of its dead fighters “every day.”

According to him, it won’t be long before he will hold “those accountable who are responsible for the deaths of thousands of Russian guys.”

Prigozhin’s latest outburst follows a string of earlier public criticisms of Shoigu and defense ministry officials. The Wagner boss’s repeated—and very public—rants against top military brass have sparked some speculation that he’s angling for political office, a cushy job in the government, or simply preemptively laying blame for future embarrassing war losses.

Yevgeny Prigozhin has said that the Wagner group may soon cease to exist as Wagnerites are running out. Prigozhin made the remarks in a video made and posted on social media by Russian blogger Semyon Pegov. The remarks come days after he launched another scathing attack on the Russian Defence Ministry over lack of ammunition. Watch the video to find out is Prigozhin trying to blackmail Putin?

Prigozhin: ‘Kiev’s counter-offensive will begin by May 15’
4/29/2023, 9:14:32 AM
https://newsrnd.com/life/2023-04-29-prigozhin-—kiev-s-counter-offensive-will-begin-by-may-15-.ByMxr_q9mn.html

‘Drones over Crimea, burning fuel tanks in Sevastopol’. The complaint of the governor of the province annexed by Russia. Zelensky: ‘Our offensive provides for the liberation of Crimea’ (ANSA)

The Ukrainian army is ready for a counteroffensive which will be launched by May 15th. This was claimed by the
head of Wagner, Yevgeny Prigozhin, in a video interview with journalist Semyon Pegov quoted by Tass.

“The Ukrainian army is ready for the counteroffensive. It was hampered by bad weather and perhaps some internal problems it had to solve,” Prigozhin said. “Maybe they will give us some rest on May 9, but the offensive will 100% start before May 15,” he concluded.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called on Western partners to make the decision to supply Ukraine with F-16 fighters, underlining however that the lack of modern aircraft will not affect the start of the counteroffensive: “To be honest, it would be very useful (have the F-16s). We are aware that we will not delay that much, so we will start the counteroffensive even before we have the F-16s or other aircraft. We will start and we will continue”.

He said this in an interview with Finnish, Swedish, Danish and Norwegian media representatives, as reported by Ukrinform.

The counteroffensive that the Ukrainian military is planning to liberate the Russian-occupied territories also includes the liberation of Crimea, which Russia annexed in 2014, Zelensky said. “We want to save as many lives as possible, so the number of weapons is important,” he said. According to Zelensky, Russian troops lose motivation every day and at the same time fear the consequences of their retreat.

While Zelensky declined to reveal any details or timetable for the counterattack, it is believed to be planned for late spring or early summer. Despite his hopes of success, he also warned that the war could continue for years or even decades.

“It is more convenient for other countries to support Ukraine now than to increase the risks of a third world war,” Zelensky said in the interview.

A fuel tank is on fire in the city of Sevastopol in Crimea following a probable drone strike last night. This was stated by the governor of the province annexed to Russia, Mikhail Razvozhayev, writes Kyiv Independent.

“A fuel tank is on fire, according to initial information the fire was caused by a drone,” the governor said, reports Tass.

According to Razvozhayev, the flames have spread to an area of ​​1,000 square meters and photos and videos have begun circulating on social media of what appears to be the entire oil depot and a huge black cloud of smoke above the city.

The fire does not represent a risk for the civil structures of the Black Sea city since it affected only the premises of the port, Razvozhayev’s spokesman specified later. The governor of Sevastopol then said that no one was injured in the accident and the evacuation of residents of adjacent neighborhoods is not planned either. As many as 18 fire crews are currently working to put out the blaze.

“Wagner may soon cease to exist.”
This was stated by the founder of the Russian private militia, Yevgeny Prigozhin, in a video posted on Telegram by Russian war blogger Semyon Pegov and taken up by various international media.

During the war in Ukraine, Prigozhin has repeatedly criticized the way in which Moscow is conducting military operations, accusing the leaders of the Russian army of treason for the lack of support for his men, currently leading the campaign to conquer Bakhmut.

It was unclear how seriously Prigozhin was now speaking and Wagner has not commented at the moment.

“At present - said Prigozhin -, we are reaching the point where Wagner will cease to exist. And it will happen shortly. We will become history, but I don’t worry about that, these are things that can happen,” he said.

Russian war blogger Pegov later posted the clip on his Telegram channel. Prigozhin, known for his fighting style and sense of irony, said on Thursday that he was joking when he said his forces would stop shelling Bakhmut to allow Ukrainian forces to show the city to American reporters visiting.

Prigozhin threatens to withdraw his mercenaries from Bakhmut if they lack ammunition
The New Voice of Ukraine

https://english.nv.ua/nation/prigozhin-threatens-to-withdraw-his-mercenaries-from-bakhmut-if-they-lack-ammunition-50321152.html

Infamous Russian warlord Yevgeny Prigozhin has threatened to withdraw his Wagner company mercenaries from the front-line town of Bakhmut in Ukraine’s Donetsk Oblast if they continue to suffer a shortage of ammunition.

Prigozhin appealed Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, asking him to provide ammunition immediately.

“I am appealing to Sergei Shoigu with a request to immediately provide ammunition,” Prigozhin said.

“If this is refused, I will consider it necessary to bring the information about the current problems and the expediency of the continued location of Wagner units in the town of Bakhmut to the supreme commander-in-chief,” said Prigozhin, apparently threating to bring the matter to Russian dictator Vladimir Putin himself.

Prigozhin said his mercenaries have only a few days-worth of ammunition left, so they will either leave the city or “be left to die”.

Prigozhin added a warning that “then, as much as our bureaucrats would not like it, everything else will crumble.”

Previously, Prigozhin complained that his mercenary company would soon disappear, as “there are not many Wagner fighters left.”

Russian-speaking residents in Riga call on Putin “not to protect” them after Russian State Duma statement
EUROPEAN PRAVDA
SUNDAY, 30 APRIL 2023, 13:30
https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/04/30/7400059/

Several dozens of Russian-speaking residents of Latvia on 29 April held a rally near the Russian embassy in Riga calling on Russia “not to protect” them.

SOURCE: Latvian news websites Delfi and LRT, reports European Pravda

DETAILS: The rally was organized by the Russian Voice for Latvia union. The impetus for the meeting was the statement of the State Duma of the Russian Federation “on the inadmissibility of the repressive policy of the leadership of the Baltic states towards the Russian-speaking population”.

GRANDFATHER, TAKE PILLS
People gathered near the Russian embassy in Riga around 14:00 with slogans against Moscow’s interference in Latvia’s internal affairs and the use of the country’s Russian-speaking residents in the interests of Russia.

The participants of the action unfurled the poster “Grandfather, take pills”, people also brought the flags of the EU and Ukraine and hand-made posters with the slogans “We need Europe, not the Russian peace”, “Latvia is the motherland, Russia is the occupier”, “Don’t poke your nose into Latvia”, “Get your hands off our country”.

“We need Europe, not the Russian peace”

“Don’t poke your nose into Latvia”

Martin Levushkan, Head of the organisation, explained that they want to convey the position of those Russian-speaking Latvians who oppose Moscow’s policy towards the Baltic states and are outraged that the Russian Federation uses them for its political purposes and division in society. “We don’t need to be protected, protect yourself in The Hague. Our homeland is Latvia,” he concluded.

One provocateur approached the participants, but overall the rally passed without incident.

Czech President Petr Pavel has left a message on military vehicles while visiting Ukraine, urging Russians to get out of Ukraine.
European Pravda
Sunday, 30 April 2023, 11:37
https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/04/30/7400051/

SOURCE: Pavel on Twitter, as reported by European Pravda
LINK TO TWEET: https://twitter.com/prezidentpavel/status/1652344338406416385?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1652344338406416385%7Ctwgr%5E7ed55a79adf907c1a38f3bf507af8fbe36026522%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.pravda.com.ua%2Feng%2Fnews%2F2023%2F04%2F30%2F7400051%2F

DETAILS: Pavel’s post suggests that this is a fleet of Ukrainian vehicles that will take part in the upcoming counter-offensive.

QUOTE: “I know this feeling. Your unit is moving to the contact line, and you want to go with it; you want to lead and set an example. As a commander, I was always there for my soldiers. And now, this is no longer my role. I came here to encourage them.

We are with you. You will avenge the fallen, you will uphold freedom. Russia, go home,” the Czech president wrote.

General Pavel is best known for his tenure as Chairman of the NATO Military Committee, the second highest position in the Alliance after the Secretary General. No Czech national has ever been so high up in the Alliance’s ranks before or since.

BACKGROUND:

-The Slovak president arrived in Ukraine on the morning of 28 April together with Czech President Petr Pavel, who is making his first visit to Ukraine as a head of state. On the evening of 28 April, they had to hold one of their meetings in a shelter because an air-raid warning had been issued.

-After the first day of travelling to the north of Kyiv Oblast and critical meetings in the capital, the presidents stayed overnight, a rare occurrence for top foreign officials during a full-scale war.

-On 29 April, Petr Pavel travelled to Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, where the Czech Republic will focus its support. And Slovak President Zuzana Čaputová visited Chernihiv Oblast and saw the infamous basement in the village of Yahidne, where the occupiers held several hundred people for almost a month.

-According to the Czech media, the president crossed Ukraine’s west border at around 09:00 on 30 April and will hold a press conference in the Czech Republic in the afternoon.
