Embed
- Published on Jan 30, 2023 veröffentlicht
- Yevgeny Prigozhin has lurked in Vladimir Putin’s shadow for years, and now he’s fighting Russia’s war in Ukraine with his ruthless 50,000-man mercenary army called The Wagner Group. CBC’s Terence McKenna breaks down what’s known about Prigozhin to uncover a dangerous ex-criminal playing a high-stakes game for control.

Prigozhin looks like an archvillain right out of central casting. Ian Fleming could never have imagined a guy like Prigozhin for Bond to fight.
@Steven That one guy with the glasses that seems like Putins "Number two" is basically #2 from Austin Powers. 😆😂
Is kind a mix between Joe Bastianich and Albrecht von Wallestein
@Ghostlight X If he had no neck he'd rather resemble one, but the Sontarans would have a long way to go before they could match his level of evil.
@Tom Whittaker Not everyone else is "bad guys," but there are some who definitely are, and Prigozhin fits the mould. I would actually say that most countries and their leaders are not "bad guys". Sometimes their agendas differ from those of that of the US, but that's okay. Everyone has a different world view, and different goals, and different needs for their people. Thing is, Russia's leaders are kleptocrats. That's not true of the people as a whole though. They are for the most part just like everyone else... trying to find a way to make it through this life in the best way they possibly can. It doesn't help when your leaders are lying to you and aren't permitting you to view any outside source of information.
This world is full of brutality.
As a human being, how should one deal with the fact that these people actually exist?
You talking about murica right? Idk bro
Idk, they still celebrate Columbus day lol
Run a better system overall and have more of them on your team than your opponents have.
I would like to see him leave Russia to any nation in Europe for even a hour
Criminals used as cannon fodder is the best idea yet of how to deal with them. United States and Canada need to take notes from Prigozhin on how to make use of their own criminals as cannon fodder.🤠
@Jerrell Holder "we" implies you pretend to be from US or Canada which I do not believe for a second. Better luck next time Igor or Sergei or Ivan or Kirill ...
@Francois Leveille we already are u think we're holy?we have the same thing
So you suggest we too should become some sort of mafia state with no respect for human rights or the rule of law?
He likes taking risks - which eventually will be his downfall. His weakness is his hands-on approach to doing 'business' because he trusts no one but himself.
@retlm guess not, as I don't process a slave mentality.
@AK 74 have you seen African hyena's deal with prey...
other than the somewhat subtle subjective narrative, this is a great report cbc! so the only thing i gotta ask is why not give this fyzer video any coverage at all?
Truth Will Not Be Tolerated On This Platform. ❤
this is like the pinguin from batman , he has its own army of criminals.
@Anna Lee I absolutely LOVE it.
Wallow in it.
pinguin from batman is the most accurate villain that looks like prigozhin
If he’s the most dangerous henchman then I would love to see his old lady. 😅 😅😂😂
Sounds like a patriot to me.
prigjozhin is very effective. He is ruthless and no nonsense kind of guy.
@Radical Mind I remember Nicolai Volkov and Boris Zhukov. Those guys were scary dudes
Russia produce those types of guy. Did you ever heard Nikolai Yezhov, and Blokhin
From Bulgaria 🇧🇬 with Love
He looks more like a villain than Putin lmao
Mr Prigozhin is brand ambassador of Wagner. Western media raise its capitalization with every such video and fictional horror stories.
Да, тоже забавно наблюдать, как они ему ореол создают. Начинаю понимать, как они изображают других русских в исторических опусах
But you can even know if this reports are true; like where they shows solders lying down circled with red ink; you can not know if these guys are dead because it is just a still picture, you can not know if they are Russian etc
Prizoshin will get pooton out by any means so he can take over his role.
He is teaching those soldiers 🇷🇺 to behave correctly, some of them said that he is like a father.
Probably because they never had a father and have no idea of what a father is.
“Henchmen” 😂😂 you guys are something else.
noun
noun: henchman; plural noun: henchmen
derogatory
a faithful follower or political supporter, especially one prepared to engage in crime or dishonest practices by way of service.
I don't understand your laughter. Perhaps you watched too many children's superhero shows and have an image of "henchman" tied to those memories but by the actual definition, it was the appropriate word.
Yevgeny Prigozhin : Military operation VS War. An operation involves the 'Attacked' only retaliating, it does not attack and none of its actions are considered 'Offensive'. Any retaliatory response from the resistor that neutralizes attacking weapons, disrupts or incapacitates their movement such as taking out bridges, railways, ships, submarines, Aircraft carriers or airfields are considered a 'Resistance' or also 'Preemptive Self Defense'. Therefore regardless of where the attacking assets in Russia are located (even next door my dining room), they are vulnerable to be neutralized by the 'Resistor' to achieve self defense and are not construed as offensive in any way. Implicitly, I need to also optimize my personal safety as a result, this is indeed distressful.
If you want to get job done, you do it like Prigozhin...
Just put him alone in a room with Trudeau. Prigozhin will come out realizing the soft and gentle truths that Justin would impart.
Wow it looks like such a nice demon. Who could have imagined?
Get this guy. Come on snipers

Russian Defence Ministry Report for Tuesday 31st January 2023
Nearly 8000 tanks" destroyed ",,🤣 Someone should tell these writers to at least tone it down a little to make it believable for the fanboys. Ukraine never even had that much tanks in it's whole history. The best part really was when they announced several challenger tanks destroyed recently when they are at the earliest delivered in March. good old Russian press releases. Nothing changes.
The orks in black bags - 130.000+ according to the Ukrainians
The European commission knows better, according their calculations is up- to 250.000+
I wont be surprised if putin makes him defense minister
He is the one Putin will have to look out for
There is no crime, no cruelty, no abomination that the mind of men can conceive of which the Russian has not perpetrated, is not perpetrating, and will not perpetrate if he is allowed to go on…
Putin is the main character of Wagner
Hope CBC does a similar video on mercenary companies like blackstone of USA to show they are not biased.
"Sontar!" ~ Prigozhin
Wagner recruiting prisoners isn’t the biggest concern. What are all the former Spetsnaz, GRU, SVR and FSB doing for Wagner…💀
Zelenski visits his soldiers at the front, Prigozhin visits his men on the front too, so where is Putin?? People are paying attention!
@Jane Doe i figured your Russian speaking and your already aware many Americans aren't in geopolitics when I speak to them about the subject thier eyes glaze over, American minds are more geared on domestic issues in politics. I'm surprised you look at geopolitics it's my understanding Russian speakers stay out of politics?
@Rolanzo Hill i m nearby and i m russian speaking. I m subscribed to all military bloghers with their online combat videos. And i read both sides' news. The everyday amount of videos from there is huge (soldiers from both sides, locals, everything and everybody). It s quite easy to understand the true situation with such circumstances
@Jane Doe your obviously in the east dah Moscow or St Petersburg? In the west a leader visiting your troops is motivation for how "WE" fight and btw we trained the Ukrainians pretty good yeah!
Zelenskiy is a pr clown. All these venetian festivals and vogue covers... there is more harm of putin visiting battlefield then usefullness. No need. Prigozhin is direct head of wangner, of course he visits frontline
The real passed away in 2008. Were many info from different sources, bloggers.
Heartless man

"Most dangerous?" Maybe. Ugliest? Definitely!
In the mighty name of Jesus is justice and Judgement is coming upon them. Terrorism genocide, crimes and destroying infras. Ge got surprise for what he had done. You can't hide. Isn't normal. Clear and distinct, you can understand what personality he has. He learn to fight and don't care just because of interest. But God is greater than above all. In the mighty name of Jesus is justice, wrath and Judgement.
