Political scientist, expert on the countries of Central and Eastern Europe, candidate of political sciences Ivan Preobrazhensky, in an interview with Radio NV, said that in Dagestan, where a number of shootouts and the burning of a synagogue recently took place , there are very strong separatist sentiments, and the Russians themselves do not consider this region to be the territory of the Russian Federation,
“It must be recalled that after the rebellion of [the now dead head of the Wagner PMC] Yevgeny Prigozhin, [Russian dictator Vladimir] Putin first came to Dagestan. Because, as they say, an analysis of social networks showed his administration that Dagestan was almost completely on Prigozhin’s side. He was for the central government to fall, and they would take care of themselves, relatively speaking,” Preobrazhensky said on Radio NV .
