Hello Team!
Jonathan shares some interesting remarks from Wagner Group financier Prigozhin, who denied Kremlin claims that Russia is fighting NATO in Ukraine and questioned whether there are actually Nazis in Ukraine. Prigozhin noted that Russia is fighting exclusively with Ukrainians equipped with NATO-provided equipment and some "Russophobic mercenaries".
