Wagner Group Chief Warns of Revolution in Russia if Ukraine War Continues to Struggle

TL;DR Summary
Yevgeny Prigozhin, the head of Russia's Wagner Group private mercenary army, has warned that Russia could face a "revolution" and lose its war in Ukraine unless the country's "elites" fully commit to the fight and put the country "into North Korea mode," with martial law imposed, to achieve results on the front lines. Prigozhin criticized Russia's Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and his daughter Ksenia, and blamed the poorly organized chain of command and corruption for leaving the Russian Armed Forces unprepared for Ukraine's fierce, Western-backed resistance.
