Wagner head warns of revolution unless elite gets serious about war

- Yevgeny Prigozhin, the founder of the Wagner mercenary group, warned that Russia could face a revolution similar to those of 1917 and lose the conflict in Ukraine unless the elite got serious about fighting the war.

Prigozhin said there was a so-called optimistic view that the West would get tired of war and China would broker a peace deal, but that he did not really believe in that interpretation. If ordinary Russians continued getting their children back in zinc coffins while the children of the elite "shook their arses" in the sun, he said, Russia would face turmoil along the lines of the 1917 revolutions that ushered in a civil war.

He's got a point regarding the fortunate sons, you could apply that to any country's senator's sons
It ain't me.
Wait, is that what the song is about? About how rich kids don't have to go to war while poor kids do?

This man is the greatest motivator for Ukrainian soldiers..... and he is so brutally honest.
He's their death sentence, not a motivator.

Its a show you f**cking clowin HOW MUCH $ THEY PAY YOU SO YOU CAN PUT UP A SHOW LIKE THIS
@@tomwhittaker9461 Wrong, he is the death sentence for the Russian people.
I mean, how is this dude still alive after all that he has said towards the Kremlin?
Because they need him. Prigozhin is their only somewhat competent commander on the field right now, and his mercs are loyal to him and him alone. If it weren't for him, the Russian army would have had to push through the Bakhmut meat grinder themselves.
@@samg.5165they wouldn't have took it if it wasn't for Wagner PMC
He’s a Caesar-esque figure, he’s relatively competent compared to the other brass, always close to his troops, popular with the populace back at home, etc.
If the Kremlin wanted him dead he would be already, like Givi, Motorala, and Zakharchenko.
prigozine is most powerfull man in russian after putin...... he will still alive....none millitary general can really touch him cz he have massive oligarcs power in russian and even he have hes own army, also hes putin's confidant and putin hand to do dirty jobs ,and in fact prigozin and wagner's experience in war is very much even the group is one of the largest mercenary groups in the world, only prigozin can really become dictator after putin cz hes power and influence....
He speaks the truth in order to use it to prop himself up as Russia's next leader.
will vote for him
🇷🇺Prigozhin 2024🇷🇺
🇷🇺Make Russia Great Again🇷🇺
Like that guy
Will he be a better leader?
How will he prop himself up as Russia's next great leader
if he falls out a window before their next rigged election?
Trust me, there are so many elite fortunate sons not fighting for Ukraine as well. It never ever changes.
Except Ukraine didnt declare the war and seal the fate of the young of both countries, thats the difference.
@@heartpaid6767 So? Ukrainian men were still forced to stay and fight. The Ukrainian elites children should as well. They're cowards fleeing Ukraine while leaving all the commoners to fight
@@heartpaid6767thats exactly what Ukraine done by setting nato bases near Crimea , they wanted to attack
@@claudiomiklasevic9468 yeah, right... smaller weaker country would definitely start a full scale invasion into a bigger nuclear weapons wielding country. Sounds believable.

I wonder if Macron knows about this?
@@MrCshx This is hilarious but true unfortunately :D
He's preparing himself as next Russia President

I've thought the same thing. All the people here who want regime change and Putin gone would do well to pay attention to this guy.
@@ianboard544 who wants regime change lol, Russians?
@marcusfanning7513 even war supporters
:) a little bit wrong. Part of fsb and svr is preparing him as the next lider.
Has anyone considered that this is a deception? Like him claiming wagner was out of ammo but went on to capture bakhmut soon after..
I think its possible that the regular army, that hates him, didn´t give him their ammo
It’s just that the European media didn’t tell you that they gave him these cartridges later.
@@marie8872 regular army loves him
He's plays psychology game. When Ukranian thought Wagner out of armor, actually it not. Its a mind game.
@@feline3462 but it's a very weak mind game, because the probability of this video backfire is high,
For example, while Prigozhin asked for the "f*cking ammo" to Kremlin, Zelenskyy is doing the same but to NATO. Obviously NATO has much more weapons and stuff to send to Ukraine than Kremlin to the Wagner group. But because Ukraine has no business to attack region inside Russia, they don't even need to expanding to the east; they can just rely on Russia's Freedom Legion instead to do that.
Prigozhin's complain can be used for Zelenskyy to ask even more weapons, which without any doubt NATO will keep on giving.
Thus, at the end of the day, Ukraine army still has more weapons, Russia army get less weapon, and the bad ol' Prigozhin will either keep complain or overthrow Putain.
Out of all russian crime lords no one is more aware than Prigozhin of how badly lost and unsalvageable the Russian annexation of Ukraine really is. The former hot-dog seller probably see a slim possibility of becoming the new Boss if he play his cards just right.
They have never tried to annex all of Ukraine and badly lost? They will most likely end up with the eastern part.
Bot
Or fed
Why're you making fun of him for having sold hotdogs?
@@Johnsmith99663 he didn't make fun, he just described it. No insults or made fun of
It’s weird to think a this guy used to be a chef.
"chef"
imagine buying a hotdog from this guy... i could actually see him as a street vendor, stuffing sweaty meat into some buns )) lets hope someone puts a contract on him
@@paladro google it: simpsons russian version.
will find him before becomes mercenary
Putin used to be a taxi driver.
He’s not a chef, he’s the owner of a bunch of restaurants and “catering” businesses. He got his start running a hotdog stand in St. Petersburg, hence why it some defence circles he’s referred to as “the hotdog man”.
Man idk even though hes fighting in a different side, he gives a very respectable opinion. He is right
He's not fighting though, he's sitting in a comfy office. With a nice cup of coffee, on a nice saucer. I'd bet he didn't even make it himself. All those Russian boys and Ukrainian boys should be on a beach in Greece, enjoying the sun and their youth sipping bears and talking about football, girls etc... a shameful waste of life.
It applies to all the elites everywhere. US, UK, EU, Asia...
Not true

Russia is messed up.

@@Infinite_AM the history of russia is to fail every generation or two... cursed with terrible leaders.
And the West isn't?
This is a real leader. I've never seen a military general at one agree with his job but have a conscience for the fighters that die under his allegiance. The main thing about this is that he is reporting this from a position of strength, not weakness.
Never seen a general in the West, nor leader in the West, be this real.
He got very clear points about the élites. That applys not only for Russia but for allí countries. Élites aré not willing to sacrifice themselves
RIP to this absolute legend. balls made of brass.
Now he did it, he start it
And now it end soon as it start
For anybody who thinks Wagner is an "elite" group, just Google "the battle of Kasham" where the Wagner group fired at U.S troops in Syria and the U.S responded by obliterating over 250 of their soldiers without a single U.S casualty and no response form the Russian military. The Wagner troops didn't even know where the fire was coming from.
Offcourse 😂😂 That Big war champ USA needed 3 months against thiny Serbia and nobody sent one bullet to Serbia military. And Offcourse brave Americans did that From the air as every brave soldier do. Shut the f...up
Aren’t we Talking about US fighter jets,bombers,AC-130,Apache,MQ-9 reaper,RG-7B shadow,M777 howitzer,HIMAR. Against 500 Wagner and syrian Ground troops. With NO war gear whats so ever. Of course they are geting slaughter Lol
Yes google searches are always accurate because google is company from USA
@@SomeFknGuy- ya thats silly example to show whether wagner are competent or incompetent.
The problem is you believe everything from your government, Google, BBC, CNN and You Crane.
Anybody else noticed how Putun has gone suddenly silent? Normally he is always quite quick with his PR replies, but not since those Russian Ukranians crossed the border... something is going on, imho...
he has medvedev for that kind of stuff.

@@cool06altNo, that's literally Biden.
@@Cotac_Rastic can you explain the meme? Im not familiar with Medvedev.
Oh boi he was right
How is it that this man can speak like this and still live when others get poisoned?
Because militarily Prigozhin and his army are more powerful and far more manly than that lame duck Army called the Russian Army. Also, he is possession of land and natural resources in Africa and the middle East were Russia intervened. And if he and his mercenaries revolt or even if just go into strike, Putin and his Army would be quickly ejected from all Ukrainian land. Putin would have to recur to Nukes, which would be suicidal, of course.
The others didn't own their own military force and didn't spend their time on the frontlines of a war zone.
He has the antidote.
Of course, his private army will protects their boss. Common sense.
Putin need him.
speaking truth this close to a window is a feat per se
Well this aged well

seems a nice chap

This man is up to something
Same for all wars!
If the elites, Kings and Queens, Presidents and Prime ministers sent their own children off to die, they probably wouldn't start these wars in the first place.
This guy is plain honest although he is notorious.
Russia should get serious about war and withdraw troops back to Russia.

Subtitles are useless when the backgrounds the same colour....the basics.....no?
Hahaha, this is true art of deception. Separating Wagner Group from any links to the Russian army. He does not own the Wagner Group, so Moscow's silence means it has given consent. If not, Prigozin will not survive the summer as head of Wagner Group. That's a guarantee.
Yeah, and his job is to follow orders - not whine about losing. Those dead soldiers (and, uh, prisoners) that he's propping up as straw men, their blood is on his hands. His job is to be responsible for the execution of their operations, they are a private contractor for the sake of removing liability from Russian government and supplementing Russian military forces.
I thought about this too
Why would he record such a message?
@@MalukuPL maybe a pysop , but tbh many russian leaders share his views, they think putin hasn't been hard enough

Probably their soldiers are stationed there or were once there.
And he died after video right ?
prigozine is most powerfull man in russian after putin...... he will still alive....none millitary general can really touch him cz he have massive oligarcs power in russian and even he have hes own army, also hes putin's confidant and putin hand to do dirty jobs ,and in fact prigozin and wagner's experience in war is very much even the group is one of the largest mercenary groups in the world, only prigozin can really become dictator after putin cz hes power and influence....
Opps he fell from a window
of course he died, XD.
so funny to see comments like this
He's got big ol' cajones, i'll give him that.
Have you seen those movies with russian bosses? Prigozhin is the final one
The same reason the British royal family all spend time in the military.
the man speaks like a side villain
Bro literally took matters into his own hands
He is indirectly saying "go have a revolution, you can do it". ;)
How'd that turn out for him?
Wow man, he is saying just some facts over there
So even by the time it hit 2021, Wagner alone killed 50k soldiers. 🤯
Just imagine how many lives lost from Russia's warmongering since 2010 :(

Keep in mind, he's still very much pro-war.
@@TransistorLSD Everyone must be pro-war in Russia, or they will be accused of treason
If he is really in favor of the war, it is something we do not know
The least naive westerner:
@@matiasrodriguez7408 You don't have to explain it to me, i'm myself a Russian living in Russia. Prigozhin is a bandit like Putin, but smarter. If he somehow replaces Putin, the world is in big trouble.
@@TransistorLSD I'm sorry, but with the oligarchies in Russia, I don't expect there to be transparent elections for a long time, so if Prigozhin were to take office, I would be "okay" that he won't try to provoke the third world war like Putin does
He's right about that.
Now show me a single high ranking general or politician or even journalist in "democratic" west, publicly saying the truth about their side. Is. Not. Allowed.
This inadvertently is a message to the West as well, because many people are tired of politicians making decisions without reaping the consequences of their actions.
Man your username is so butchered it's got me wondering if it's Macedonian.
Cmon Prigozin!
Step up and be that guy!

Sure he cares..but only about money

Did someone forget to close that window?
I am a Ukrainian. Our entire army is now 400 thousand. If they killed 70,000 and wounded 300,000 only near Bakhmut. Why are they leaving Bakhmut and not entering Kyiv or Lviv?
That's not true, Ukraine's army was 400,000 pre war it became 700,000+ post mobilization. He said 50,000 was killed with an estimate of another 50,000 - 70,000 wounded. Multiplying Kia by 3 to find wounded is a bs rule the media keeps following, it is misleading people. If you were to do the same math with Russian kia you get a number almost as large as the total forces they deployed to Ukraine.
as i understood, he said
50.000 Eliminated
50.000-70.000 wounded
so its around 100.000 to 120.000 ukrainian soldiers out of combat "for 3 months".
Its probably an optimistic number. I'd say its around 70 to 80 thousand ukrainians Killed/wounded.
But my only "Source" for this estimative is multiple sources saying Ukrainian reinforced and lost around 500 soldiers daily in Bakhmut. In 120 days of the fiercest combat, it'll round up to that number.
Bit oftopic, but can you understand him without translations? Or is Russian quite different then Ukrainian? I do pray for your country, and that justice will prevail.
@@TheMugenVideos Everyone in Ukraine understands Russian though the languages are different. Close but different.
Maybe they have bad memories of their previous trip to Kyiv?
And maybe Lviv is too dangerously close to a NATO country.

Prigozhin is one of the most ruthless and heartless sotb ever in history...
But he too got fed up with Putain's mismanagement of his so called 'special military operation', thus somewhat make his complains more deserving. Very ironic indeed...
Priggy says a lot of things. Take this with a grain of salt, as always.

You are probably right. But its still refreshing to hear some truth from a russian. I dont mean only this video but overall his statments in last months.

Prigozhin and Putin are very close friends. They must be, or Prigozhin would be gone now.

I was in Goa/India in January, I saw so many Russians doing well, having fun. Not just that many Russians couldn't even afford to go to the seaside in India in January, when weather is -20 or -30 in Russia, but other Russians are sent to trenches in Ukraine.

He is right.
Prigoschin is not the head of Wagner and Wagner has nothing to do with Russia so what?
What’s the point when everything is just scorched earth after?
Man's office looks like a class room
Rip Prigo
No regard for human life in Russia, he speaks about the zinc coffins without blinking his eyes, as if it was not him who played the key role in sending those individuals to death.
Putin didn’t listen
David Blaine is trying to work out how he’s alive.
He’s right, the limit is close.
Wagner lost 40k in bakmut and 40k wounded. When you attack a city you lose far more men than the defenders who slowly ceded ground over time.
Not when you're Wagner.
Some wars through history shows contradiction to this rule. Be it because of attacker's technological advantage or defender's poor organization/morale.
100k well trained and equipped Ukrainian defeted by 50k poorly/ untrained prisoner (who were forced to fight) with only 20k casualties. Sounds a bit off. Either he's parshly lying, or he fails to add other military casualties unrelated to the wagner force 🤷
Wow, how did you get these numbers? Surely you must have been there , LIVE ACTION!
@@aqwaqw9990who tell you that wagners are bad trained? You know nothing about that. Wagner was the best organised and most effective war organisation in the world.
