Yesterday a real information bomb exploded. Russian billionaire, Putin's authorized person and founder of ''PMC Wagner Group'' Yevgeny Prigozhin made a sensational statement. In an interview with journalists from the Finnish newspaper 'Helsingin Sanomat', Yevgeny Prigozhin said that many professional army men from NATO countries, including the US Marine general are fighting on the Side of PMC Wagner Group. At the same time, He also stated that a large number of Finnish citizens are fighting in the so-called British battalion as part of the PMC Wagner Group, the commander of which is a US citizen - retired U.S. Marine Corps general. It should be noted that Yevgeny Prigozhin rarely makes such sensational statements, especially for the Western media. Hardly anyone doubts that foreigners, including Americans, are present in PMC Wagner Group. In any case, it is no secret that a large number of volunteers from all over the world have been fighting in the Donbass for all these eight years on the side of the Russians.

“They’ll never say because it could then be easily disproven.”

You mean like when the West/UK/US/EU/NATO steadily pumped out and is pumping out articles based upon ‘unnamed official’, or some other ‘unnamed’ source and you and your cohorts lap it up as Scripture, huh?
Lulz.

You characters are hilarious safe within your bubbles of hypocrisy.

I would not be at all impressed - I have seen more than a few useless excuses for General Officers during my time in the Corps.

Idiots, to be honest - including our current Commandant.

Doesn't explain why the Russians are in Ukraine killing folks - but thanks anyway.

No electricity, water and functioning sanitation in winter isn’t winning.

No, winter comes every year and those at latitude 50° can deal with it

That is unless they are Russian conscripts not provided adequate winter gear and clothing and calories and living in trenches

I find this hard to believe. Unless the General is working for the CIA or State, he could even lose his USA citizenship fighting for a foreign government as a mercenary. That is why names are kept secret. You can work as a contracted trainer or something of that nature. But to be a fighter would be insane especially for a Flag Officer.

Russia has a last laugh as West-supplied Howitzers are breaking down in Ukraine - report

https://youtu.be/kVhs_WJUSuM

“Ukraine is facing technical problems with western artillery amid war with Russia. According to New York Times, one-third of the howitzers sent to Ukraine have developed snags. A U.S. official said that a third of the 350 howitzers sent by the west to Ukraine are out of action. The New York Times reported that the United States Department of Defense is concerned over the development. The U.S. reportedly set up a repair facility in Poland to fix “faulty” weapons, the NYT reported.”

Putin’s war empties arsenal of 20 NATO nations after U.S; Setback for Ukraine | Report

https://youtu.be/b4dfPrvdkrc

“In a huge setback to Ukraine’s fight against the Russian offensive, most NATO members have run out of weapons. According to a report published in the New York Times, at least 20 of the alliance’s 30 members are “pretty tapped out.” A NATO official also said that smaller countries have exhausted their potential. Even the U.S. military is rushing to replenish the arms stock it has supplied to Kyiv.”

US falls short on weapons, will not divert exports from South Korea

https://youtu.be/cjPxraf8Hmg

“The war in Ukraine has now lasted for almost 10 months. The Western allies remember before the beginning of the war simply had not anticipated the scale of this conflict but today it is the primary cause of domestic and international wars.”

👉 U.S. looks to supply older and cheaper weapons to Ukraine.

NATO plans on restarting old weapons factories to boost prouction.

Ukraine is firing 7k rounds per day of which the U.S. only produces 15k per month. 👈

Libtards: WION put out Putin propaganda in this report!

Libtards: Hindustan Times also put out Putin propaganda even though they are citing the New York Times!!!!!

The so-called “Wagner Group” is Putin’s special toy of actual Nazis and fascists that are more of a special off-the-books group - paid by the Kremlin, but not under the full official authority of the Russian military. It’s who Putin sends in when he wasn’t not-so-plausible deniability.

It is a battalion from this Wagner group that US military actually fought a battle against in Syria several years ago.

Ukraine has pushed Russian troops out of almost 1/2 of the territory Russia thought it had soundly taken. In response, Putin launched massive rocket attacks across Ukraine against the power grid- specifically to terrorize civilians.

And Russia is still trying to dig in in the face of ongoing Ukrainian counter-offensives.

Bottom line, we stop funding it, Russia successfully invades a neighboring country, expanding its borders.
And it will wish to do so again.
NATO was created to defend against Russian expansion.

Actually, NATO was created to defend against military aggression by the SOVIET UNION (and later Warsaw Pact). Russia is not the former Soviet Union - in fact, Russia spends less on their military than the Brits do:

Because Russia economically just doesn’t have it. Gone are the days of the Soviet Union, who owned the plants, owned the mines, and owned the workers - They actually have to pay for weapons now.

US Military spending is very high - yes. But the procurement regulations force those prices higher. The days of $600 hammers and $2000 toilet seats never really ended - they just got more creative in how to hide those prices.

Not trying to justify - just clarifying.

—”Because Russia economically just doesn’t have it. Gone are the days of the Soviet Union, who owned the plants, owned the mines, and owned the workers - They actually have to pay for weapons now.”

From the Soviet era, “They pretend to pay us, and we pretend to work!”.

Some things never change.

You having nothing of substance to bolster your contentions against HT/WION other than just sheer dismissive words shows how stupid you are.

It’s baseless, dismissive crap against non-western media like that from you that is causing a rift between the U.S. amd India. Grow up and prove where they are wrong in their articles if you aren’t too stupid to be incapable of it. Prove it now.

Secondly, the New York Times has been a big cheerleader for Zelensky and Ukraine, hardly Putin propagandists.

Buy yet you and other trolls here act as if HT/WION are Putin propagandists while simultaneously now acting as if the New York Times is now a Putin propagandist.

You all have cognitive dissonance based upon emotion, not logic, and Russophobia.
