It’s also been refuted repeatedly by the Human Rights Ombudsman in Donetsk - you know, the one operating out of the FSB offices, that was appointed with Putin’s approval.
They said consistently from 2019 to Feb 22 that there was no genocide going on, and that wthe single digit casualties per month that were still being recorded by Feb 22 were ALL combatants.
And Prighozin confirmed that - nothing extraordinary was happening in the Donbas last February; you had pockets of Ukrainian militants firing at Russian/LDPR militants and they fired back. Civilians by and large weren’t anywhere near that action.
You’re right. Prighozin had no qualms doing the fighting while he was getting handsomely paid and had a ready supply of convicts to prop the numbers up.
He’s not on “our” side; he’s a businessman who’s getting nothing out of it despite being in charge of the most competent force Russia has in Ukraine. He sees Shiogu and others getting shiny uniforms, big checks and medals while he’s the only one actually doing any of the donkey work.
Such blatant denial of reality. You’re not even worth engaging.
You’re calling yourself out?!
I just didn’t want to bother with you. Still don’t. Looking forward to you being dragged to the FEMA camps.
