Wagner Chief Was Informed His Troops Wouldn't Receive Funding Without Contracts With MoD
16:23 29.06.2023 (Updated: 16:43 29.06.2023) Russian President Putin described the actions of the Wagner Group PMC as an armed mutiny and treason, at a time when the Russian comrades-in-arms were fighting at the frontline in Ukraine.
Wagner chief Yevgeny Prigozhin failed to comply with the
Russian Defense Ministry's decision on contracts, and had been informed even before the
June 24 events that Wagner troops would not participate in
special military operation in Ukraine, according to Russian lawmaker Andrey Kartapolov.
"Several days before the mutiny attempt, the Defense Ministry announced that all formations carrying out combat missions must sign a contract with the Defense Ministry. Everyone started to carry out this decision, an absolutely correct decision — except Mr. Prigozhin. He had been informed that in that case, Wagner troops would not take part in the special military operation," Kartapolov told Russian journalists on Thursday.
