Moon of Alabama \u2013 Nov 8, 2022<\/strong><\/h1>\n

A number of news outlets are spreading this nonsense:<\/p>\n

Russian oligarch Yevgeny Prigozhin admits interfering in US elections \u2014 and promises to do it again<\/a> – Nov 7, 2022 – NYPost<\/em><\/p>\n

Russian oligarch and Kremlin ally Yevgeny Prigozhin<\/a> said Monday that he had interfered in US elections in the past \u2014 and intends to keep it up.<\/p>\n

Prigozhin, the money-man behind Moscow\u2019s brutal Wagner Group paramilitaries<\/a>, made the admission in a statement released by his business, the Concord catering firm.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have interfered [in US elections], we are interfering and we will continue to interfere. Carefully, accurately, surgically and in our own way, as we know how to do,\u201d read the statement posted to Russian social media platform VKontakte.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring our pinpoint operations, we will remove both kidneys and the liver at once,\u201d the statement added, without further explanation.<\/p>\n

The post, made one day before mid-term elections in the US, was in response to questions put to Prigozhin from Russian news outlets.<\/p>\n

Prigozhin \u2014 colloquially known as \u201cPutin\u2019s Chef\u201d due to his catering firm\u2019s Kremlin contracts \u2014 is also thought to be the financier behind Russian internet troll farms.<\/p>\n

The White House even remarked on it:<\/p>\n

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Monday that the oligarch\u2019s comments \u201cdo not tell us anything new or surprising.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s well known and well documented in the public domain that entities associated with Yevgeny Prigozhin have sought to influence elections around the world, including in the United States,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cYevgeny is a known bad actor who has been sanctioned by the United States, the United Kingdom and also the European Union,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe also know that part of Russia\u2019s efforts include promoting narratives aimed at undermining democracy and sowing division and discord \u2014 it\u2019s not surprising that Russia would be highlighting their attempted efforts and fabricating a story about their successes on the eve of an election,\u201d Jean-Pierre said.<\/p>\n

This is of course great nonsense. Prigozhin remarks did not admit anything but were pure sarcasm.<\/p>\n
