«Zelensky is personally offended»
Prigozhin's plane was blown up by Ukrainian special services. This version of the causes of the plane crash on August 23 was expressed live from the MK press center by political scientist Sergei Markov.
— Prigozhin, Utkin and others were killed by Ukrainian special services. Zelensky made this gift to his Bandera people on the Independence Day of Ukraine,” Markov said.
According to the expert's forecast, the Ukrainian special services will either never admit their involvement in the plane crash, or will do so after a while.
— In some terrorist attacks, such as the murder of Daria Dugina and Vladlen Tatarsky, they did not admit at all, but there is a lot of evidence that it was they who did it, — Sergey Markov explained, — They hate Prigozhin and the Wagner PMC, they are afraid of them. «Wagner» they were given a good thrashing near Bahut. Zelensky personally gave the order to blow up the plane.
Markov explained that Zelensky was personally offended by the fact that he failed to make Artemivsk (Bakhmut) a symbol of the resistance of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. It was Yevgeny Prigozhin who broke his plans by arranging a “Bakhmut meat grinder”.
The expert also said that the Western media’s versions of the involvement of the Russian leadership in the death of a businessman are untenable.
— Someone started talking that this is supposedly revenge for the rebellion. But it was not a rebellion against Putin. It was an attempt to come up with a petition. In addition, Prigozhin was not deprived of state awards, he was present on the sidelines of the Russia-Africa summit in St. Petersburg at the end of July, the political scientist emphasized.
The expert also questioned the conspiracy theories that Prigozhin could allegedly hide in unknown direction, and on board the deceased liner was his double.
— At 98%, Prigogine is dead. There is no point in disappearing like that for him,” the expert said.
As for the future Wagner PMC, the political scientist named Andrey Troshev (call sign «Grey»).
