According to the political scientist, the idea of the defeat of the Russian Federation in the war has already taken over the mass of the generals and the top leadership of Russia.
Political scientist Andriy Piontkovsky, who lives in Washington, said that there are currently 27 private military companies in Russia. According to him, they are being created in the Russian Federation in order to fight for the huge economic legacy that will remain after the defeat of Russia.
“Today, there are 27 PMCs in Russia. The question arises, why are they needed? They are not needed for the war with Ukraine. The fact is that the people who organize these PMCs already see themselves in another, next war. Understanding that the war with Ukraine has already lost, they are lining up for the next mafia war between different groups for the huge economic legacy that will remain after the defeat of Russia and the inevitable exit of Putin’s group,” Piontkovsky said on the air of the Espresso TV channel.
The political scientist predicts that these private military companies will begin to pick up large pieces of Russian property.
“For the same Krasnoyarsk nickel, aluminum, Norilsk nickel. This is what these criminal formations are created for. In general, the idea of defeat has already taken over the mass of the generals and the top leadership of the Russian Federation. We are absolutely sure of Ukraine’s victory,” Piontkovsky noted.

Russian opposition politician and sociologist Ihor Yakovenko said that a mafia war is being prepared in Russia for the distribution of territory. According to him, this is indicated by the creation of private military companies in the Russian Federation.
