Yevgeny Prigozhin in a letter asked the head of the US Treasury to open a branch of Wagner PMC in the USA

The founder of the Wagner PMC, Yevgeny Prigozhin, once again reacted to the decision in the United States to include the military company in the list of so-called "transnational criminal organizations". Yevgeny Prigozhin, in his usual manner, as they say now, "trolled" the US Treasury, which stated that the funds of PMC "Wagner" "are conducted through gray schemes" and will now be "under American sanctions."

The head of the Wagner group wrote an open letter to the head of the US Treasury, Janet Yellen, in which he asked the American official for "permission" to open a branch of the Wagner PMC in the United States of America. The open letter, published in Russian, says that this will serve "better interaction with the US Treasury."





Earlier, Yevgeny Prigozhin had already sent an open letter to the White House with a request to clarify what kind of crime the private military company had committed. For obvious reasons, Washington did not respond to Prigozhin’s letter at the time, because pointing to any “crime” by the Wagner PMC, one could get an answer about a similar crime committed by American PMCs or regular army servicemen from Yugoslavia to Afghanistan and Syria.

            To comrades who are very far from the army (well, to the majority who saw the military either on TV or in a telegram) I will tell the following story, in fact, the only rear military school in Soviet times, they naturally trained future logistics officers (heads of food and clothing services), but in a diploma each diploma was written with a military specialty - Command-tactical, and then .... food (clothing) support for the troops, so each rear cadet studied army tactics and topography, etc. ... and fired from all types of weapons. .. so be careful with the cooks, when the commander is wounded and died, the rear will become operational and will be both a commander and a tactician .. and one annual release of lieutenants was big ...

          Yevgeny Prigogine in his usual manner

          Something recently, Mr. Prigogine has become noticeably more active. Not only the victories of PMCs on the battlefield, but also in the media space. I would even say that it is slowly starting to bully. In my opinion, sometimes to the point, and sometimes not so much. The understanding that his PMCs in the NMD have no alternative so far and their positions are strong, somewhat "brings" him.
          But this is my personal couch opinion, and perhaps Evgeny Vladimirovich in this way simply relieves the stress that has accumulated during the battles. hi

          more and more it reminds me of the punctuation of Rogozin-cosmonaut with Mask on Twitter

          In the same way, Rogozin was unable to establish a relationship with Russian engineers and designers, so Prigozhin quarrels with Strelkov, who made an undeniable contribution in 2014 when he took the blow of the best Ukrainian forces in Slavyansk during the difficult defense of Slavyansk and fettered them for several months. Rogozin painted rockets in Khokhloma, squealed about flights to Mars and the Moon, filmed a blockbuster in orbit, created a cool PR service with his secretariat. But he did not bother to search for the effective use of Russia's capabilities in space technology to implement its plans on Earth and did not direct the efforts of the design and research team to find the effective use of resources for the good of Russia. In the USA, they will simply laugh at this letter when they see that Rogozin is distracted by correspondence with his enemy. Stalin did not allow contacts between Shtemenko, Shaposhnikov, Zhukov and Rokossovsky with Goebbels. Gerasimov, who has a channel of direct communication with the US military, is not promoted in this way. Therefore, under him, Russia has been fighting for a year only on foreign territory with its enemy, although Stalin and Zhukov waged war on their own territory until the end of the war with Hitler.

          Well, why not make fun of it?
          There are no questions about this particular statement. But this is not Prigozhin's only statement. There are too many of these statements and they must be considered not only separately, but also in the aggregate.
          Separately, it looks like this:
          “They constantly try to steal victory from PMC Wagner and talk about the presence of someone who is not clear, just to belittle their merits,” Prigozhin said.
          A hint at the Russian Defense Ministry. Many publications (including VO) pick up and trumpet that only Wagner is fighting, the Russian Armed Forces are doing nothing.
          The head of the PMC "Wagner" Yevgeny Prigozhin pointed to the betrayal of one of the "Kremlin towers". He stated that some Russian officials are just waiting for Russia to lose.

          Surnames should be called, and not abstractly about the towers.

          And there are up to and more such statements, plus the replication of various online publications.

          And all these statements, in their totality, can be considered as the accumulation of patriotic energy and giving it a destructive direction.
          For example, to direct its energy to strike at the structure of the state (the Russian Defense Ministry, the "Kremlin tower") and this during the war.

          I am silent about how and on what the image of Prigozhin was created for a long time through the meme "Putin's personal chef". Although this is an absolute lie, well, it walks around the Internet like the truth. Although Putin himself stated that all his cooks are employees of the FSO and he does not have other cooks.
          However, the idea is circulating on the Internet that Putin instructed his "personal chef" to head the PMC and, accordingly, any statement by Prigozhin is Putin's position.

          Which is complete nonsense, but many on the internet interpret everything that way.

          Question: who and for what it imposes? And without an answer to this question, it is impossible to find out whose plan "Putin's personal chef" is implementing.

      Alexander, what constitution are you writing about? In "Stalin" and "Brezhnev" this is not by definition, but in the "Chubais" of the 90s, even more so. I can recall that the concept of "mercenary" was formulated in the First Additional Protocol, or rather in its 47th article, to the Geneva Conventions. The first to understand the benefits of PMCs was Britain. In 1967, Colonel David Stirling organized the first private military company called Watch Guard International.
      And one more thing ... not "in" the Russian Federation, but "in" the Russian Federation .... we are not on the outskirts.)

        Actually, not really. Volunteers. All contractors are volunteers. They came to the draft board and voluntarily entered into a contract for a certain period of military service. Or now they voluntarily go to military service in the NVO. BUT!!! All of them should serve in the ranks of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, and not create separate military formations. The legal status of the Wagner group is unclear.
        Some consider them to be mercenaries, again not so. There is in the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation Article 359 mercenarism, it is clearly written there who is recognized as mercenaries: -
        A mercenary is a person who acts for the purpose of receiving material compensation and who is not a citizen of a state participating in an armed conflict or hostilities, who does not reside permanently in its territory, and who is not a person who is sent to perform official duties.

        That. all volunteers do not fall under the definition of a mercenary.
        In order to stop all misunderstandings associated with PMC Wagner (unofficial name) to the leadership, lawmakers should confirm their rights by law.

      In 2010, the United States initiated the adoption of the International Code of Conduct for Private Security Companies, which is advisory in nature and is an attempt to create a legal framework for the legalization of mercenarism based on self-regulation of this activity. The code was signed by about 600 PMCs from 70 states, including 62 from the US and 199 from the UK
      Yes, and recently, volunteers from Wagner have been talking more often about PMC "Wagner" on Russian TV. or assault troops of volunteers. And volunteers are a little different, they are like militias, or partisans ...

    Something I don’t remember is that the Ministry of Finance of Mattresses would show the same zeal and zeal to take control of the payments of the ISIS and bring them under sanctions, as it does with respect to the Wagner PMC.
    You might think that the sponsors of ISIS were transporting American babos on donkeys and camels in caravans. Although why be surprised if the bearded barmaley were a product of the mattresses themselves.

      But what if the Sunnis of Iraq were slaughtered by the Americans, and not by the Iranian Shiites and their puppets, provoking a large-scale conflict in society? ISIS is a product of the expansion of Iran's zone of influence in the first place, everyone knows perfectly well what the Shiites are doing.

        Mattresses provoked this massacre in the first place by intervening in the affairs of Iraq and hanging their leader Hussein. Prior to that, they coexisted relatively peacefully and, in principle, there was no basis for the emergence of ISIS. The expansion of the influence of the Iranian IRGC on the territory of Iraq is already a consequence of the fact that the mattresses, by their actions, destabilized the situation in this state. So do not turn events and consequences upside down. No.

            And I wrote about the fact that they "coexisted relatively peacefully", but however, the intervention of mattresses and the Western coalition aggravated the situation + created conditions for the development of ISIS. By the way, what is there to hide, Israel also had a hand in this and unofficially supported the bearded terrorists in Syria. The former head of Israeli military intelligence, Major General Herzi Halevi, did not hide this, which he openly stated at a conference in the city of Herzliya. Whatever you struggle with drafting a wording that denies this fact, I will provide you with a link confirming what General Halevi said.

            Saddam was just an idiot who even quarreled with Saudi Arabia and surrendered the country to the modern Safavids (Ayatollah and the IRGC)

            So yes, because he was a fan and liked to sit on two or even three chairs at the same time, which let him down. Of course, if he had an atomic bomb, he would still be in prison. So maybe Iran, taking into account the mistakes of Iraq, will still have time to assemble its "atomic shield" from the shadow of which it will affably wave to the United States and Israel. I understand that the well-being and regional leadership of Israel is also largely based on chaos, wars and chaos in the neighboring countries of the B. East, which is supported by it in every possible way, but the peoples of the BV are already tired of this policy.

    The founder of the Wagner PMC, Yevgeny Prigozhin, once again reacted to the decision in the United States to include the military company in the list of so-called "transnational criminal organizations". Yevgeny Prigozhin, in his usual manner, as they say now, "trolled" the US Treasury, which stated that the funds of PMC "Wagner" "are conducted through gray schemes" and will now be "under American sanctions."

    in general, amers both in the tail and in the mane ....

    Is private military companies allowed in the Russian Federation according to the constitution?


    But is it in Russian in the Russian Federation, and not in the Russian Federation? And the constitution, not the Constitution?

    I respect people with a sense of humor and sarcasm. By the way, he also pinned Strelkov clearly .. Tipo stop talking strategist, come to our PMC, we will give the position of conductor of a small assault group, and then we'll see .. Strelkov answered, I'll think .. Well, well.
    In general, Prigozhin would need to be very careful .. The Anglasaks, and even more so the Ukrainian Reich, he was very angry .. I think the kills have already been sent to him!

    And you are laughing in vain .. This is a business, but no banter ..
    Americans, too, may need the services of a third-party private company around the world, in some distant part of the world .. Again, staff can be hired, a US Marine also knows how to fight, you can take him to work ...
    Estimate yourself .. hypothetically, the protection of some American oil rig, in a country unfriendly to the United States, entrusted to the Russians, who have normal relations with the local population ...
    This is a subtle move, and a reasonable offer for the US to get into the client base of this PMC ..
    And for PMC Wagner, there is a bottomless market of orders.
    But most likely nothing will come of it, no one has canceled the lobby in the United States, and there is a carriage of their own PMCs.
    Although a variant is possible, tacit agreements with the State Department, without exceptions from the list with secret cooperation, but with looking through the fingers at some of Prigozhin's actions around the world.

    The Chinese, too, their services may come in handy .. It's time to open an office in Beijing.

    The head of the Wagner group wrote an open letter to the head of the US Treasury, Janet Yellen, in which he asked the American official for "permission" to open a branch of the Wagner PMC in the United States of America.

    As in the joke:
    Israel is in a difficult economic situation. There is a discussion in Parliament. “The country that lost the war is best of all, it receives help. Take, for example, Germany. We need to declare war, lose it, and then large investments will flow into our economy. They put forward a proposal to declare war on the United States. Start voting. All for, only one against. He is asked to speak in explanation of the vote.
    An old Jew gets up and slowly walks to the podium, everyone waits patiently, he rises to the podium and says: “What if we win the war?”

    In response, he received an invitation to come to discuss the details. The American side prepared a suitable hotel for him. I wonder if he'll go?

    Yevgeny Prigozhin removed grease from the wheel of the enemy Ministry of Finance. Now the enemy Ministry of Finance will drive his cart with a creak and low speed.
