No reasons given.
Russian oligarch and Wagner owner Evgeny Prigozhin stopped recruiting prisoners to PIK. However, it is not reported what this is connected with.
This is reported by Prigozhin's press service.
It is noted, they say, that all obligations are fulfilled to those who are now part of the PIK.
“The recruitment of prisoners in the Wagner PPC has been completely stopped. To those who work for us now, all obligations are fulfilled,” the message says.
By the way, according to media reports , the number of “Wagnerites” decreased five times. The number of imprisoned mercenaries amounted to 50,000, and now there are about ten thousand left.
Recall that American analysts at the Institute for the Study of War believe that The Kremlin is afraid of the influence of Yevgeny Prigozhin, a businessman and owner of the Wagner PPK . Moscow continues to deny the legitimacy and power of Russia to the so-called “Putin's chef”.
