There was a certain bafflement with the mouthpieces specially in UK that I was monitoring with rushed propaganda that they were producing every second. It went from changing the terminology they used for Wagner group from "terrorist" to "freedom fighters" to crazy fake news they reported from the usual "unnamed reliable sources" about how Russian government has fallen and Putin has fled the country because Moscow is occupied by the Wagner group!!!
Did any media said that Wagner Group people were freedom fighters? Cause I haven't heard that but I heard that they were happy because there was an inner escalation in Russia between two powerful people, Prigozhin and Putin.
If anyone was really thinking that Prigozhin and his group Wagner are freedom fighters, then that person is seriously dumb and lacks critical thinking. To be honest, it will be far more dangerous if we see Prigozhin instead of Putin. By the way, it's still a mystery, what actually happened and why. Prigozhin and Putin make a deal, then day(s) after the pentagon states 6.2 billion missing in an accounting error.
Such a high level of confusion with rushed propaganda where their contents are all over the place and even contradicting each other at times, is very rare in Western Propaganda agencies which are the leaders of brainwashing techniques.
Historically speaking such a situation only happens when they are too desperate and all their previous plans have failed (clear from the increasing number of anti-NATO protests across Europe) so they have to go back to old schemes they've already tried in the past or in other countries.
There is no one as successful in Brainwashing as Russia is and has been since the existence of Soviet Union. C'mon, they have a Lenin's Mausoleum, people still pray for Stalin and wish him to be alive despite the fact that Stalin brutally killed their father or mother or siblings for no reason.
To be honest, one can't really understand what is right and what is wrong via media. The best way to understand is to be in that area in that moment, otherwise you don't really know what happened. Not even reading of news from tons of different media is going to help you in this case.
Regarding PMC "Wagner", in fact, this is actually a structural military unit of Russia. It was created to conduct military operations on the territory of foreign states, when it was necessary to hide its belonging to Russia as a state. The sign of a private military formation was best suited for this. But recently, Putin was forced to admit that only from May 2022 to May 2023, 86 billion rubles were allocated from the budget for the maintenance of members of the Wagner PMC and incentive payments and another 110 billion rubles for insurance payments.

In Russia under Putin, everything is usually built on lies, and lies cannot be hidden for long, because the situation is constantly changing. It is interesting that Prigozhin, during his riot on June 23-24, opened up that there was no danger to Russia from Ukraine, she was not going to attack Russia. In addition, Ukraine has not fired at the population of Donbass for the past 8 years, but, defending itself, hit the positions of Russian soldiers who occupied and plundered the regions of Donbass. But it was precisely this lie that was the official reason for the attack on Ukraine in February last year.
