What did Putin promise Prigozhin?

Jun 24, 2023

The Kremlin has made concessions, and therefore the leader of the Wagner PMC, Yevgeny Prigozhin, has stopped his march on Moscow. This was reported by Telegram channels close to the Russian special services.

According to the Cheka-OGPU Telegram, the Russian authorities promised Prigozhin and his mercenaries certain "security guarantees." In particular, the criminal case against Prigozhin will be closed, and Wagner's militants will be granted amnesty as members of the IAF. The State Duma of the Russian Federation has to vote for this.

In addition, Moscow has also promised to "resolve the issue" of Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces Valery Gerasimov, who were extremely dissatisfied with Prigozhin because of the occupiers' constant military defeats in the war against Ukraine.

If this turns out to be true, Putin has more than lost. Then there will soon be a second series of raids on Moscow, and even then the Russian president may be ousted himself... After all, it is unlikely that the army will defend him.
