Wagner boss openly challenges Kremlin narrative on Ukraine
Yevgueni Prigozhin, leader of the Wagner group and an uncomfortable figure for the Kremlin
By Joshua Askew & Euronews in Spanish • 03/25/2023
Yevgeny Prigozhin doubts that the war that Russia is waging in Ukraine has to do with the alleged threat from NATO, and also questions that, as Moscow says, they are fighting to "denazify Ukraine".
The head of Wagner's notorious mercenary force, Yevgeny Prigozhin, continues to wage his personal battle against the Kremlin. The latest "shot" from him, and according to reports from the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), has been to openly contradict key aspects of the Kremlin's narrative on the Ukraine war. Without going any further, Prigozhin would have denied that Russia is fighting against NATO, also questioning whether there are Nazis in Ukraine.
The Kremlin has repeatedly justified the invasion of its neighbor as "necessary" to purge kyiv of neo-Nazis, who threaten Russia's peace and security, despite little evidence of this. At the same time, they have not hesitated to present the war as an existential fight against NATO, which they say is getting too close to Russia's borders.
Prigozhin, according to ISW reports, would have assured that Moscow fights "exclusively against Ukrainians", equipped with material provided by NATO and against some "Russophobic" mercenaries who voluntarily support Ukraine. But in no case against NATO itself.
Likewise, the Wagnerian leader would have expressed his doubts about the objectives of "denazification" in Ukraine, showing his doubts about the presence of Nazis in the country. He has also reportedly "flatly rejected" longstanding Kremlin claims that Russia needs to defend itself against a NATO threat. “It is ridiculous to think that Russian officials did not know that NATO would come to the aid of kyiv,” Prigozhin was quoted as saying by ISW.
