“Put bold full stop”: Wagner Group founder calls on Putin to declare end of war

Yevgeniy Prigozhin, leader of the shadowy Wagner private military company, asks the Russian authorities to declare the end of the war.

The founder calls to concentrate on gaining a foothold in the occupied territories of Ukraine, his press service reports.

"For the authorities [of the Russian Federation – ed.] and for society as a whole, it is necessary to put some kind of bold full stop in the 'special military operation'.

Announcing the end of the war would be the ideal option, Prigozhin says. Russia has to inform everyone that it has achieved the planned results. The state has eliminated a "huge number" of Ukraine's troops and "can report to ourselves that our task has been completed:".

Theoretically, Russia has already received this full stop by destroying a large part of the active male population of Ukraine, by intimidating another part of it that has fled to Europe.

Russia has cut off the Azov Sea and a large chunk of the Black Sea, seized a fat chunk of Ukraine's territory, and created a land corridor to Crimea." the founder added.

The terrorist claims that Russia can only "gain a firm foothold, cling to the territories that already exist".

Prigozhin believes that there is one problem that the war caused: "If earlier Ukraine was part of former Russia, now it is an absolutely national-oriented state".

The militant wrote an entire article where he reflects on the importance of Bakhmut, the leak of Pentagon documents, and the upcoming offensive of the Armed Forces.

Prigozhin stands against any negotiations with Ukraine and wants Russian and Ukrainian forces to meet in the battle.
