Yevgeny Prigozhin announced the refusal of Wagner PMC to sign a contract with the Ministry of Defense
PMC "Wagner" will not sign any contracts with the Ministry of Defense, the company will remain in its status and continue to carry out combat missions. This was stated by the curator of the "Orchestra" Yevgeny Prigozhin.
Prigozhin commented on the order signed the day before by Shoigu, which gives all volunteers the right to sign a contract with the Ministry of Defense until July 1 of this year to give volunteer detachments a legal status. According to him, Wagner PMC will not sign any contracts with the military department, since it is a separate combat unit with vast experience in combat operations. In general, Prigozhin will not go under Shoigu.
At the same time, the curator of the "Orchestra" emphasized that the "Wagner" is still ready to carry out combat missions at the front. In the NMD zone, the "musicians" will continue to coordinate their actions with General Surovikin, since he is "an intelligent, competent and experienced commander" who sets realistic tasks.
- declared Prigogine.
According to him, the units of the Ministry of Defense are not able to effectively carry out their tasks precisely because of the commanders who do not have the necessary knowledge. And the management of the company is not going to subordinate PMC "Wagner" to the generals from the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces, even under the threat of deprivation of ammunition.
Prigogine added.
