Prigozhin gets his money back – Belarus

1. Petersburg media report that Prigozhin was returned 10 billion rubles, which were seized during the searches.
Iosif Prigozhin’s claims for money from the Gazelle did not pass. 😀

2. Part of Prigozhin’s structures will continue to fulfill government contracts. Some reorganizations and a formal change of leadership are possible.

3. The reason for the preservation is simple – over many years of work, Prigozhin’s structures have become so rooted in the state tissue that cutting them out at once without serious damage to the state is fraught with serious problems. That is, you can cut it, but the consequences will be serious.

4. Therefore, Prigozhin’s opportunities were seriously limited (the Patriot media group was liquidated, problems began at Concorde, etc.), but they were not nullified.

5. PMC “Wagner” continues to busily settle in Belarus. According to a number of reports, the process of training the Belarusian military and the transfer of combat experience gained by Wagner on the battlefields has already begun.
