Russian President Vladimir Putin

Yevgeny Prigozhin, head of the Wagner mercenary group, which is part of the support group for Russia in the war, broke with the Putin government and exposes this Friday (23) his dissatisfaction. The leader’s positioning made the organization’s fighters mobilize against the Russian president.

This morning, Prigozhin claimed that the Russian Ministry of Defense was responsible for the attacks against the mercenary group’s camps and assured that it would strike back.

“Those who destroyed our boys will be punished. I ask that no one offer resistance. We are 25,000 and we are going to find out why the chaos is happening in the country”, he said. “This is not a military coup. It is a march for justice. Our actions in no way interfere with the troops.”

The position reverberated in Russia and the Ministry of Defense released a note to say that the accusations of Putin’s former ally were lies and “an informative provocation”. The agency also reported that the country’s president was aware of the case and was taking action.

One of Russia’s security services opened a criminal case against Prigozhin. He is accused of encouraging an uprising against the Russian government. If he is convicted, he faces 20 years in prison.

Mercenaries advance against Russian government

Mercenaries began to mobilize in the streets of Russia and Moscow ordered security reinforcement.

The deputy commander of the Russian campaign in Ukraine, General Sergei Surovikin, ordered the militiamen to return to their bases and remain loyal to President Vladimir Putin. “The enemy is just waiting for the domestic political situation to deteriorate in our country,” he said.

“We call on the fighters of the Wagner group not to commit an irreparable mistake, to stop any energetic actions against the Russian people, not to carry out Prigozhin’s criminal and treacherous orders and to take measures to stop him,” added one of Russia’s security services. .
