Russian military commander calls on army to overthrow Putin  - 1

The owner of the Russian private military company “Paladin” Georgy Zakrevski called on the Russian army to remove Vladimir Putin from power because, in his words, he has turned Russia into a third-rate military power.

Confidence in the leadership of Vladimir Putin is no longer as great as it was at the beginning of the war in Ukraine. The Russian leader's plan to capture Kiev in three days failed completely, and the war has already spread to Russian territory with the invasion of the ZSU in the Kursk region.

Zakrevski is the leader of a private military company “Paladin”, one of many in the country. She has participated in military operations in Syria and other parts of the world. It is not as powerful as “Wagner”, but Zakrevski's words may be an indication that a new rebellion against Putin is being prepared in Russia, express.co.uk reported.

Zakrevski argues that Russia is on the brink of catastrophe and great trouble. Drones fly all over central Russia, as far as Moscow and St. Petersburg, attacking even the Kremlin. The Russian Black Sea Fleet has been kicked out as if Russia were a third-rate country, the military commander said. He also added that the Russian military aviation practically does not work, and the population is dying of poverty and drinking itself to death. And the so-called “great Putin” brought Russia to this state.
