The well-known Russian opposition businessman Mikhail Khodorkovsky, the richest man in Russia until his conviction and exile, urged this Saturday to help the head of the Wagner mercenary group, Yevgeny Prigozhin, in his rebellion against the Russian military command, since the real enemy is not is not in Kiev, but in Moscow.
“Prigozhin’s rebellion, despite its lukewarmness and lack of preparation, is the strongest blow to Putin’s reputation,” he wrote on his Telegram channel.
He stressed that the head of the Wagner Group is telling the truth when he said that “the official reason for the war (NATO is preparing to attack Russia) is bullshit that nobody believes in.”
Khodorkovsky noted that the Russian army “was ruined by the hands of robbers close to (Russian President Vladimir) Putin” and “cannot defeat Ukraine.”
“The real enemy is not in kyiv, but in Moscow,” he said. And that, he added, is said by Prigozhin, a person who helped Putin consolidate his power.
“What we can do to help our country now is to help people listen to Prigozhin while he is telling the truth. And if he goes to Moscow, stop him from stopping, help with gasoline and diesel, convince those who will be sent to stop him. that we now have a common enemy,” Khodorkovsky emphasized.
He indicated that “now we must help and then, if necessary, we will fight too.”
The former oil magnate was arrested in 2003, found guilty of various economic crimes, sentenced to 14 years in prison and confined to a penitentiary in Siberia, although he was finally pardoned in 2013 by Putin, his great political enemy.
