Prigozhin Says It Will Take 1.5 Years For Russia To Capture Donbas, 3 Years To Reach Dnieper

Yevgeny Prigozhin, the owner of the Russian private military company (PMC) Wagner, believes that for the complete occupation of the Luhansk and Donetsk Regions of Russia, it is necessary to continue the war for at least another year and a half.

Prigozhin said this in an interview with Russian propagandist Semyon Pegov.

The owner of the Wagnerites believes that Russia is able to reach the Dnieper, but to do this, a full-scale war against Ukraine must be continued for about three more years.

"If we need to go to the Dnieper, then for three years, If we need to close the DPR and LPR, we need to work at least one and a half or two more years," Prigozhin said.
