The creation of a number of new PMCs in Russia did not change the game at the front, since these structures were designed solely on the basis of a desire to make the funding profitable, and not to win.
Evgeny Prigozhin, the head of Wagner PMC, commented on the current situation.
He believes that it was decided to create several similar military structures so that the “Wagnerians” would not become a big force.
“At the same time, PMCs are first funded by someone, then they are abandoned, they should be funded by the state. It is clear that the state has a shitty cloud of generals, officers, etc., who will gladly warm their hands that some kind of funding has disappeared,” Prigozhin said.
Based on his experience, he said that to form an effective unit, it is not enough to buy military uniforms and distribute weapons to people. PMCs need the best commanders and a well-organized control system.
“To create a military structure, it is not enough to put people, dress them and pay them a salary, but the salaries, by the way, in the same Potok are paid in such a way that the shoes fly off . And that’s also bad, because not everyone understands why they’re being paid, and those on the front lines aren’t being paid as much as they are. And if you pay as much as them, then the country won’t bear it, it will split in half,” the businessman said in the video.
The head of Wagner PMC said that he proposed to leaders of different levels to increase the number of his units by 200,000 people. In this case, the “Wagnerites” would level the front line, push the enemy to a safe distance from Donetsk and return the positions lost last year.
