A bloody hammer as a "gift" from "Putin's cook" for the EU Parliament: Yevgeny Prigozhin's private army shocked with a video.
Estonia answers.
Update from November 25, 9:43 p.m .:
The Foreign Minister of Estonia, Urmas Reinsalu, countered the Wagner Group’s action on Friday: “Terrorists make fun of the victims in Ukraine.
This week Prigozhin sent a sledgehammer to the European Parliament after the Parliament declared Russia a "terrorism sponsor".
I will send these handcuffs to the headquarters of the International Criminal Court in The Hague.
There they will wait for Prigozhin and his accomplices – for the crimes against the people of Ukraine.”
Bloody Hammer from the Wagner Group for the EU Parliament
Brussels/Munich - A symbol that confirms exactly the image that Europe has had of Russia since the start of the Ukraine conflict: After the EU Parliament declared Russia a "terrorism supporter" on Thursday, the lawyer for the Wagner group of Yevgeny Prigozhin ("Putin's cook") then gave parliament a violin case - inside was a bloody sledgehammer.
This is reported by several media unanimously.
Preparations for the handover were announced in a video released by the group on propaganda channels.
"Putin's cook" Prigozhin probably sends a hammer with the Wagner logo - and the words "blood - honor - fatherland - courage"
In the video, a man in a suit brings the violin case into an office and places it on a table.
Then you see the hammer: This adorns the Wagner logo, traces of blood can be seen on the handle.
The words "Blood - Honor - Fatherland - Courage" can also be read there.
So it is fitting that individual MPs have already called for the Wagner Group to be added to the list of terrorist organizations.
"Putin's cook" Prigozhin: Wagner boss apparently threatens Europe with a bloody hammer
In the scene, which could have come from a mafia film, Prigozhin apparently threatens the Europeans with the symbol of the bloody hammer.
According to the Telegram channel
Nexta
, which is close to Wagner, the hammer should represent “information”.
A few days ago, another video made the rounds in which a soldier branded a "traitor" was killed with such a hammer.
Video title: "Hammer of Revenge".
Yevgeny Prigozhin said: "A dog receives the death of a dog."
