The event that will put Putin in trouble! Wagner threatened to withdraw his fighters
Wagner founder Prigojin posted an interview with Russian journalist Semyon Pegov on his social media account. Prigojin noted that as a result of clashes with Ukrainian soldiers in Bahmut, they took much of the city under control and drew attention to the lack of ammunition they gave their fighters.
Emphasizing that the Russian army has enough ammunition in its arsenals, Prigojin said: “The current situation brings the end of Wagner. The Wagner company will soon cease to exist. We will be history.” saying.
Prigojin claimed that 80,000 rounds a day are required in conflicts, but they themselves want 4,000.
Prigojin said that the Ukrainian army was constantly sending new soldiers to Bahmut and claimed that they were no longer receiving ammunition.
Underlining that a certain amount of ammunition is needed to defeat the Ukrainian soldiers, Prigojin said that if the ammunition is insufficient, they will lose 5 times the number of fighters they lost today.
“Either we leave or we stay to die”
Stating that it will not be long before he can file an application against those who do not supply ammunition to the Russian Prosecutor General and the Investigative Committee, Prigojin said he wrote a letter to Russian Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu on the issue of ammunition. .
Stating that Bahmut would have been taken by now if they had received support in the ammunition field since the beginning of the year, Prigojin said: “April 28 was the day of decision for us. We will decide if we go to the conflict in Bahmut or not. Will we be here or not? we are patriots As long as we have our last bullet, we will be in Bahmut. But this bullet is enough to last days, not weeks. If the ammunition shortage is not corrected, we either leave or stay to die organized, without fear like mice. We will probably withdraw some of the troops. We have to stop deceiving the Russian people that everything is fine.” he said.
Prigojin also stated that the Ukrainian army would launch a counterattack against the Russian forces on May 15.
Since February, Prigojin, the founder of the Russian security company Wagner, has sought the support of the Russian Defense Ministry, claiming that “they are no longer supplied with ammunition.” (AA)
