He partially voiced the real state of affairs: Yusov on Prigozhin’s statement on withdrawal from Bakhmut
The founder of the Wagner PMC, Yevhen Prygozhyn, partially voiced the real state of affairs when he spoke about the lack of ammunition and the need to withdraw troops from Bakhmut, Donetsk region, for this reason.
This was reported by Andriy Yusov, a representative of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine, on the air of the United News.
– “As for the plans to withdraw (Wagner’s troops – Ed.), I think we will see the concrete consequences of these words on 11 May and assess them. As for the problems raised, Prigozhin partly voiced the real state of affairs, because there are two aspects. First, in general, the racists have certain problems with the BC, in particular with artillery systems.
But in the case of Prigozhin, this is a continuation of the long-standing conflict between Prigozhin and Shoigu, Prigozhin and Gerasimov. There are many aspects, but this confrontation continues. In fact, the aggressor’s armed forces, the aggressor’s army, cannot even show the results that Wagner’s men demonstrate during assault operations. And this is how they continue to compete,” he said.
Yusov noted that specific dates for the withdrawal of troops should not be discussed, as this information message can be very different from the actual plans and state of affairs.
– Therefore, it should not be taken too seriously. They say 10 May, well, we’ll see on 11 May. If they do, they will make a wise decision to save the lives of the remaining personnel,” he added.
On 5 May, Yevhen Prygozhyn said that Wagner’s PMC terrorists would “leave Bakhmut” by 10 May due to a lack of ammunition.
At the same time, the Ukrainian Armed Forces believe that Prigozhin made the statement about “leaving Bakhmut” because the Wagner PMC was running out of fighters.
