After the constant failures of the Russian troops on the battlefield over the past two weeks, more and more different representatives of the Russian regime have united in criticism of the leadership of the Russian Ministry of Defense. British intelligence reports.

In particular, critics include Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov, as well as Wagner PMC owner Yevgeny Prigozhin, TV propagandists, celebrities, and an increasingly active community of ultra-nationalist military bloggers..

Kadyrov and Prigozhin are likely to be perceived as unofficial figures, the heads of the “pro-war” bloc, whose criticism is based on arguments about a greater readiness for escalation.

Both likely gained some credibility based on the significant deployment of both Chechen combat units and Wagnerists in the war against Ukraine, UK Defense Department analysts say..

Criticism continues to focus on the top military command, not the top political leadership of the Russian Federation. However, according to British intelligence analysts, it reflects a trend of public expression of disagreement with the Russian establishment, which is likely to be difficult to stop..

According to information obtained by US intelligence, one of the representatives of the inner circle of Russian President Vladimir Putin in recent weeks expressed disagreement directly with the head of the Kremlin about how he is waging war against Ukraine.. The Washington Post writes about it.

This criticism is the clearest indication of the turmoil in the Russian leadership over a war strategy that has worked disastrously wrong for Moscow and led Putin to announce a partial mobilization last month in a desperate attempt to make up for recent losses at the front..
