Prigozhin Harshly Criticized PMCs Set Up By Russian OligarchsSouth Front

April 26, 2023


The Wagner PMC is not the only one operating on the Ukrainian front lines. Inspired by Prigozhin’s example, some representatives of the Russian elite created their own private armies. Their units are already deployed in the Donbass, including in the Bakhmut region, ordered to secure flanks of Wagner fighters who are advancing in the city. However, the effectiveness of the new Russian PMCs turned out to be low.

Prigozhin gave an interview revealing the truth about his ‘colleagues’, their true goals and incompetence, which does not help but put obstacles for Wagner fighters:

Prigozhin Evgeny Viktorovich: Today we went to deal with the newly created PMCs (Private Military Companies). The whole country has decided that they are able to save their homeland as the Wagner PMC does. As a result, instead of giving us the opportunity to recruit people, command them and fight, they create different, obscure companies. Therefore, we figured out why they are needed, what is happening to them today and how to deal with them. There are many PMCs but the problems are still the same, nothing is changing at the front.

Prigozhin to fighters of other Russian PMCs: So, guys, the main question is, why did you leave your positions?

Soldier: We had no communication, no ammunition.

Prigozhin: This is clear, no communication and no ammunition. The main question that I have already asked to myself and that I responded: you have the same legs and hands are we do. For example, this tall guy, your a call sign?

Soldier: Miron.

Prigozhin: If Wagner takes Miron now, sends him to Molkino, trains him there for three weeks, tests him here for two weeks, puts him in an assault unit, gives him a bulletproof vest, a helmet, feeds him, gives him water, gives him a walkie-talkie, explains everything, he will be a strike fighter in a month and a very fucking good fighter!

This morning, a “big man”, who took you all there, called me and said: Fuck, give me a “Lumberjack” to еtake out the wounded! Is “Lumberjack” here?

Wagner fighter: No, he is not here.

Prigozhin: So, give me a “Lumberjack” to take out the wounded! I told him: fuck, put on your body armor, bitch, put on your helmet, go to the position and find your wounded and find “Lumberjack”.

PMCs: We’ve already taken out all our wounded.

Prigozhin: They are sitting there, goofing off. As a result, they need to report to the Kremlin, that they are so cool that they created their PMC.

In total, what do you have? There is no aviation, there is no artillery, there is no communication, there is no electronic warfare, there is no electronic reconnaissance, there are no drones, there are no doctors and this is half the trouble! The main trouble is that there is no control.

PMCs: We agree!

Prigozhin: For the country to fight, you need commanders and tactical commanders. Right? One who can take a company task group or a battalion task group and lead it into battle! I counted; we have 6 thousand such team commanders. Wagner has 6 thousand, and there are 6500 in the country. I honestly say, if our 6,000 from Wagner were proposed to fight in the army on a salary of 1 million rubles a month, they would say: fuck off!

I think you were recruited the following way: you were told a sad story how you would come to Lugansk and guard the plant.

PMCs: Yes, sure!

Prigozhin: General shit, right?

PMC: Yes! When we were sent here, we were told not to take any belongings; we only took dry bags for a day, that’s it! We went somewhere on a training ground. Our things should be here in a couple of days. We’ve been here for two weeks now, and they haven’t even brought us our stuff.

Prigozhin: Right! Because if they tell you: bro, take dry bags for three days with you and we will give you more for two weeks, take two tubes of painkillers with you, better four, right? Here you think that something is going wrong, fuck! We are not going to guard a plant, right, and therefore, you were taken to the firing ground.

PMC: They brought us dry bags and money for the company. The foreman did not come, the commander temporarily appointed me foreman of the company. They brought cash, and said to buy food ourselves.

Prigozhin: How do you think, the one who sent you there and made you PMCs, will he miss at least one day his dinner with delicious tuna?

PMC: Well, they brought us money only for five days but we are here for what day.

Prigozhin: Everyone has their own truth, someone was not given food, someone was not given ammunition. Maybe this ammunition was laying nearby, but the one who brought them, he should have coordinate you and say: here is your ammunition. This is called command, when in the tactical link there is a managing head, the commander. Right?

PMCs: There are even no personal tokens.

Prigozhin: Moreover, there are no personal tokens!

PMC: You know, they told us: write a call sign on all your clothes, right down to your underpants.

PMC: There are those here who have never shot with an assault rifle or a grenade launcher, although they are grenade launchers and their fate is already unknown.

Prigozhin: All of our guys know to use a grenade launcher. Well, what are we going to do with them?

Wagner fighter: We’ll take them out. We will deal with your commanders but we need to find them first.

***

Prigozhin: Today the main problem with the PMCs is that in order to somehow dilute PMC Wagner, so that it is not a strong force that can play any role in domestic politics. Secondly, everyone is told that once there will be a struggle for power, everyone needs his own private army.

That is why people who have money believe that this is cool today to create a PMC. They spawn, Gazprom’s PMC Stream, which we call the Blue Stream, kind of PMC Bokarev, PMC Redout, and so on. Of every living thing of all flesh two of every sor!

At the same time, these PMCs are first financed by someone but then they are abandoned, so the state should begin financing them. Of course, there is a huge number of generals, officers, and so on, who will gladly line their pockets on those funds.

Then, it seems that you are having a great time playing with you soldiers, sitting in the office. These soldiers will look beautiful; they will wear Multicam like Wagner fighters. A kind of a brutal military romantic. That is why this spawn of PMCs is a crime against their own people.

In order for this process to start working, it must be under control from the very beginning to its end. To do this, you need to put on a bulletproof vest, go to the front line and figure out who is wounded and who is not.

Today according to my rough estimation, there are about 6,000 people in the PMC Wagner who can take combat command. In the country, there are at best 6,500 and 6,000 more people in PMC Wagner. Is it better to let people join Wagner or to try to pull your dick to the nose in order to become another commander of something somewhere?

These 6,000 fighters will never go to the army at no point. If I tell them today: that is all, guys, the work is over, then they would better go and guard a garage than join the army. Therefore, these 6,000 people are the last reserve of this country to win the war.

I have repeatedly offered our leadership at various levels to give me 200 thousand people, give me mobilized servicemen, give me convicts, give me anyone. 100 thousand to the North, 100 thousand to the South. I will straighten the front line, push the enemy 100 km away from Donetsk, and in the North I will reach the front lines which were lost six months ago and by the way, I’ll close the Donbass ring, so that we are not ashamed and so that we could explain why this special military operation was launched. Other decisions were made. They decided to create micro-PMCs.

***

Prigozhin: So come on, what happened? Don’t be afraid!

Russian PMCs: We were at the edge, me, “Naum”, “Butuz” and “Odinoky”. We were in the front position. We came out only at 6 am, when we realized that we were alone in the forest area, we were at the very forefront.

Prigozhin: The question is that the servicemen should secure our flanks. The servicemen, instead of putting their own forces, sent you there. You stood on the flank and then it did not matter if you ran out of ammunition, there was no control, you ran away, and if you escaped, you left this position and the control must be restored again. We have a hundred people who died while we were getting there.

PMC: We were told.

Prigozhin: Yes! That’s not the question. Why did I come here to clarify this? The fucking story that I want to show to the outside world, bitch. The main problem is that there is no fucking command!

PMC: The front position was lost because we had no batteries and there at 8 a.m. there was no communication. We do not know what is going on behind us, who is there.

Prigozhin: Right! Because some douchebag has to make sure that you have batteries, a diesel generator, so that you have a connection and teach you what to do when your connection is lost, right?

PMC: We almost killed our guys. It is good that he saw his friend, otherwise we would open fire on ours, because we thought we were surrounded.

Prigozhin: Well, you do not have any communication?

PMC: No! We only got a walkie-talkie today. We had it before but there were no spare batteries for it. It ran out of battery on the first day.

PMC: We were dressed by volunteers. This is humanitarian aid. We did not receive anything. Only volunteers helped.

PMC: The problem is that we have no communication, no thermal imagers, and no night vision system. We do not have anything.

Prigozhin: This is just a specific situation. This story, fucking films on the Internet, mobilized, this is all the alleged work of the Ukrainian special services, which show the truth as it is! Volunteers dressed people. They did not give them walkie-talkies, did not say them what to do, where to go. They did not give food. They do not know where to take a combat kit. There are no night vision devices, there is nothing!

PMC: We had a thermal scope but we wasted all our batteries to charge it.

Prigozhin: Our batteries last sat down in 2014.

PMC: One day, we gave our batteries to charge them and that is it, we did know where they took them.

PMC: 12 days here. Our clothes are wet; we slept in the water in the rain.

Wagner fighter: The commanders did not give you an oilcloth?

PMC: We asked your guys (PMC Wagner) for food, water. When your guys left the positions, they left us their cartridges. Ours only brought us new cartridges yesterday morning. So we had one combat kit for 6 assault rifles, and by two zinc on the forest belt.

PMCs: They told us a beautiful story about MLRS, tanks, etc. They began to train us in a sniper group, without rifles. Since October 21, 2022, I have not seen an SVD (rifle). I have an RPK. I pay with my salary to by gunstocks etc. Now, I’m lucky.

***

Prigozhin: We have just seen the guys from the PMC Alexander Nevsky. They are fucking dirty, wet!

When they were sent there, they could not give them waterproof suits, a piece of oilcloth, which they talked about! As a result, how they will perform combat missions when they think about one thing: how to warm up a little?! They shake from the cold, mitts or gloves are wet, there are no weapons, fuck, there are no batteries, there are no devices, no one understands what is going on. As in 1941, we determine who is in our position with shots. If there is a shot, they are still alive, fuck! This is just the destruction of the Russian people! Nothing less than a genocide, fuck!

When the meeting is held 300 km from the front line, you will not see anything like this. A soldier will be washed, shaved, brought to report to you that he is going well. In fact, absolutely not fucking well!

Doctor: This is an operating room.

Prigozhin: Are you doing all the main operations here?

Doctor: Yes.

***

Prigozhin: We went to the medical post to look at the wounded, who were fighting with the PMC Stream, aka Blue Stream. It turned out that there were no wounded. Their health was stabilized. They all were taken to Lugansk. Things are under control. We will later add a video with the wounded so that everyone understands, that the wounded were treated like children. The commander with the call sign “Lumberjack”, handsome, took everyone out. Honestly, I thought he would take out only those who survived but he pulled everyone out.

It is impossible to simply build a building and buy professors’ hats to create Harvard or Oxford University! This takes years and needs specialists! Similarly, the PMC Wagner is a private army of a new generation! A private army with ideology! It is impossible to just take PMCs, recruit people, dress them up and create the same effective structure.

It is clear that my people already secured all those parts of the battlefield, from where these so-called PMCs came. If Alexander Stanislavovich Syrsky (Commander of the Ground Forces of the AFU) decides to launch a combat reconnaissance operation and sees naked asses running away, then first I would like to warn that those are not mine fighters! Secondly, once again I warn you, that everything is fine there and better not to go there, so as not to get punched in the fucking head.

In order to make a military structure, it is not enough to dress and put on shoes on people and pay them salaries. By the way, in the Stream PMC for example, they are paid such high salaries that the boots fly off. This is also bad, because everyone else does not understand why they are paid, and those who are on the front line, they are not paid as much as those PMCs. On the other hand, if those who are on the front line are paid as much as these PMCs are, the country will not stand it, it will crack in half.

Therefore, “the fun with fat” and playing soldiers in this war, it does not work! It requires the deflation of all possible bubbles, the complete mobilization of themselves and only in this case we can achieve anything. Everyone thinks that they can continue their past lives. If you live your past life, you should not start the war! If started, then everything is turned into dust outside the window; and if all is turned into dust, then you need to understand and accumulate all your efforts, especially since practice has shown that we are not the strongest state in the world, unfortunately! Therefore, we have to become such the state, having gone through all these tests!

Once in 2014, one of my acquaintances, a hero of Russia, told me with all confidence that I was flogging a dead horse. Deripaska (Russian businessman) has 5000 guards at his enterprises. These guards will put on body armor take assault rifles and they will bust the fuck out of everyone! But no.

For the first time I will say about the following. Of all my acquaintances, one person, Dmitry Sergeevich Peskov, who was once considered a complete liberal, and whose son lived part of his life in America or in England, came and asked to take his son as a gunner to our ranks. By the way, he worked normally, as a usual gunner, knee-deep in the mud, in shit, with the Hurricane system. Few people know about this!

We also launched the PMC Wagner with forty people. Today we have aviation, airplanes, helicopters, artillery, tanks, we have electronic warfare, electronic reconnaissance, satellite reconnaissance, we have absolutely everything that is required for a normal army and we use all this for the benefit of our fighters. Therefore, when our fighter is storming a stronghold, then believe me, first we study in detail what is happening there, from satellites, from drones, after that we get radio intercepts, data from agent and everything that we need.

When a Gazprom fighter from PMC Stream is thrown into the mud, he can deal only with his own problems!

***

The entire system is working only for one thing, so that no information is leaked anywhere! If at least any information that we are doing nothing is leaked, immediately the whole story is recognized as a fairytale of a foreign agent or some other enemy of the people!

They are fattening for their own pleasure and do not care that they stirred themselves the pot, while the Russian people is forced to take the rap! How do these guys, who were dragged into PMC Stream, who cowardly abandoned their positions, framed a lot of people and, in fact, left our Russian land? They are not different! Despite the fact that those who sent them there are jackass and degenerates, who cannot do anything themselves and think that the plundering of public money is endless and this is the most important job in the world!

I can say that the requirements are really high. No one gave anyone the right to violate discipline and desert. These are two main pillars of the Wagner PMC, which allow us to go forward; but the losses, they do not result from some difficult tasks, in general, but from the complete sloppiness of those subcontractors who should work with us! Including from the amount of ammunition. I have already given a calculation that let’s say if you use 6,000 shells per day, then you lose 20 people. If you use 3,000 shells, then you lose 120 people! Therefore, in general today, the high losses, and I have no doubt that they will be even higher, due to the lack of organization and due to snobbery, which infects a certain number of people, who think that having reached a certain level, they become Gods!

What is the problem of the army? The problem of the army is that our main thing is servility and roughly speaking, ass licking. No wonder the joke was that the officers have buttons in front and buttons in the back on their overcoat, because when you are the youngest in rank, then you unbutton the back, when the senior in rank, then in front, and when you become a general, the buttons on the back disappear. In my opinion, only a couple of people do not have buttons on the back, everyone else has them as well as in front.

Therefore, the main problem of the army today is global servility and because of this, no one wants to hear what is happening from below. Those who are closer to the next level grow, but not those who are competent and know something. Because of this, those who can do something, who know their worth, who want something, they go to the Wagner PMC!

I can say that during the shame, near Izyum and Krasny Liman, some of generals called me and asked to take them as commanders of the assault detachments. In my turn, I’ll take. Mid-level commanders say: listen, well, let him sit nearby, how can he be a commander of the assault detachment? To become the commander of an assault detachment, you must first run through the mud with an assault rifle in order to understand how this is happening. Therefore, almost everyone who commands in Wagner, they themselves had run through the mud with an assault rifle. I am also climbing through the mud to understand this from the inside!

When you create a PMC, remember the most important thing, fuck, this is not at all the same as creating Zenit football team! The main injury in the football team Zenit is when someone is hit in his nuts. Here you will be accountable for your fighters who lost their legs, fuck, who died, in front of their mothers and wives! Remember right away, there should be a law: if you take a military unit under your responsibility, you should report to their wives and mothers on the deaths; and explain to everyone why he died. Was he defending his Homeland or because of you, asshole, who left him fuck knows where! Go, drag the corpses yourself, and after that, tell sad stories about the war!

Until your kids, your fucking kids from Rublevka go to this shit, fuck, you will always think you are playing soldiers. When you go to them on the cemetery and open a zinc coffin and you see the coals inside, then you will feel all the things you do, fuck!

***

– Sergeev Vladimir Mikhailovich. Wagner fighters are treating us at the highest level. They supply food, water, everything! They help to “cover” the enemy with artillery. Our wounded was taken out; I know for sure, his call sign is “Boar”.

You see, I have no underpants, no socks, nothing!

I am ready to fight, perform combat missions. I am ready, but give us three days to wash up, wash. We’ll all get sick here. Look, we are looking for medical supplies in this pile.

***

– Hello everyone, call sign “Mazai,” we are holding the 55th position for the 5th day. Wagner guys are fucking cool! I always have water and food. In their turn, my commanders, bitches, they threw us here in summer clothes. I can no longer stay here. All our guys got wet and frozen. In the evening, we will have pneumonia.

I enjoyed staying here. Guys from the PMC Wagner are cool, starting with communication, ending with help. I ask for fire, the target is already covered! They work like this!

***

– PMC Stream?

– Yes, I am from the PMC Stream, I was evacuated today by guys from Wagner.

– Are they treating you well?

– They provided me with the first aid and now continue to provide.

– The Wagner PMCs will take him to the hospital.

***

– As they say, no emotions, only slobber. Guys, my respect to you!
