It's because he just likes the music of Wagner.
this was before the coup.
sry I meant neonazi stuff
Also this is from Rainer Shea https://www.bellingcat.com/news/uk-and-europe/2020/08/14/pmc-structure-exposed/
In that same report, Bellingcat includes a statement which confirms that the famous Dmitry Utkin who’s been tied to Russian mercenary activity is not the same Utkin whose (supposed) Nazi tattoo photo has been widely shared by pro-NATO propagandists on social media. Bellingcat states about Prigozhin’s catering company Concord, whose CEO’s name was also Dmitry Utkin: “the Dmitry Valeryevich Utkin in fact appointed as CEO was not the Wagner Group commander. In fact, this Dmitry Utkin was created just a month earlier – through a legal name change (permissible in Russia) of a little-known St. Petersburg resident, eighteen years younger than the original Utkin and having only three months of prior management experience running his own startup company: Alexey Karnaukhov.” Karnaukhov is the alleged neo-Nazi who these propagandists claim is a mercenary commander. In reality, he’s nothing more than a business partner of Prigozhin, a business partner whose role is wholly detached from mercenary activities. And because he looks vaguely similar to the shirtless, scowling man with Nazi tattoos on his shoulders who’s appeared in a viral photo, the Ukrainian disinformation agents have falsely claimed he’s the same person as this man.
When Bellingcat says that's not Dmitry Utkin, I listen.
If you could elaborate further on the neopagan stuff that isn't from the photo that would be nice.
1: It's based on one photo that doesn't even look like him, this is how he really looks like, compare the 2 photos:
- The wagner name is grasping on straws, he was a famous composer, it doesn't definatively prove that Wagner is nazi.
The guy with nazi tatoos is not Dmitry Utkin, they don't look like the same person.
The picture of Utkin with nazi tatoos is not Utkin, they don't look the same and it's unsourced.
TASS is referring to an OSCE report, OSCE is the Euro-American organization in charge of monitoring the ceasefire. They have been accused of collaborating with Ukraine and arrested after the war started but their reports before show ceasefire violations by Ukraine.

Zelensky has said that he never intended to follow the Minsk ceasefire and said so to Der Spiegel. Other Euorpean leaders like Angela Merkel and Francois Hollande have made it clear they used Minsk just to buy Ukraine time.
Ukraine was practicing to blow up the dam and even hit a valve before.
Ukraine invaded Russian Donbass in February. https://tass.com/politics/1401297

Voice also won't do anything though. If politicians want to hear the voice of the people they can go listen to them.
The companies ruining indigenous land have been financing the voice referendum, an advisory body like that could easily be used to justify themselves. It's gone that way before. "Progressive No" has the best opinions, listen to Lidia Thorpe and those that put treaty first, both sides want to assimilate indigenous people into settler colonial society. Both a yes and no victory will be a success for the racists.
