The split in the ranks of the Russian occupiers is intensifying. Prigozhin’s press service published an audio recording in which the founder of the Wagner PMC claims that the Russian Defense Ministry twice tried to physically destroy his militants. Once in Syria, and the second – in Bakhmut. In addition, Prigozhin said that his mercenaries would not sign contracts with the Russian Ministry of Defense, contrary to Shoigu’s order and Putin’s statement. According to Prigozhin, the PMC ‘does not want to go down the path of shame again,’ and, in his opinion, the Wagnerites should receive social guarantees from the state automatically. About the conflict between the Ministry of Defense and Prigozhin – in our story.
