Sergei Mironov spoke about the fate of the sledgehammer donated by Prigogine

The leader of A Just Russia (SR), Sergei Mironov, will not hide the sledgehammer presented to him in January by Yevgeny Prigozhin, the founder of PMC Wagner. Mironov’s comment was circulated by the press service of the party.

“Here, fortune-telling began among the political scientists: where will I hide the sledgehammer presented to me by Yevgeny Viktorovich Prigozhin. My answer is: don’t wait! And secondly: do not judge everyone else by yourself,” said the leader of the SR.

Mironov called the armed rebellion that took place on June 24 “absolutely unacceptable.” “But this does not cross out either the former relationship with the person, or his former merits. And the fact that the Wagner columns stopped and did not cross the fatal line means that they still have the interests of our country and subordination to the president in the first place. I hope that the Wagner fighters will write many more glorious pages in the military history of Russia, ”the politician said.

On the day of the rebellion, the leader of the SR noted, “the country demonstrated unity around the president and readiness to act for the main goal – the victory over neo-Nazism.” “Only victory guarantees the future of Russia. And the inner front did not flinch! In this sense, the point where the Wagner columns stopped became the point of unification of the patriots and all the sane forces of the country. We managed to prevent the main thing – bloodshed, which our enemies in Kyiv and in the West were so counting on, ”Mironov added.

He believes that this was made possible primarily due to the actions of President Vladimir Putin, who took a “very balanced position.” “Vladimir Putin called white white and black black. Recognizing the heroism of the “Wagnerites” and their services to the Motherland, he called what was happening a rebellion and a stab in the back of this Motherland. He was heard and agreed with, including those who criticized the actions of the Russian authorities, and the “Wagnerites” themselves eventually obeyed the will of the commander-in-chief,” the leader of the SR noted.

He expressed confidence that “the unique experience and knowledge of the Wagner PMC fighters must be taken into account and demanded by the country.” “For this, we have advocated and will continue to advocate the adoption of a special law that would regulate their activities,” Mironov added.
