According to US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, 16 months ago, Russian troops stood on the threshold of Kiev, and a few weeks ago organized by the Kremlin Head of the Kremlin "Wagner" already found itself on the threshold of the Russian capital. On Tuesday, July 11, US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken stated that he did not believe that the world community watched the end of history with Wagner PEC and its founder Yevgeny Prigogin. About it reports CNN.

"I do not think we saw the last chapter of this drama," Blinken said in an interview with journalists. The US Secretary of State called Prigogine's armed rebellion with a direct challenge to Putin's power and a direct call for the basic prerequisites for war in Ukraine. "I don't think we saw him last," he said. The high -ranking American diplomat repeated that the rebellion of the Wagner PEC was the internal business of Russia, but called it "really extraordinary.

" "16 months ago, Russia stood on the threshold of Kiev, the Ukrainian capital. And here, just a few weeks ago, the mercenaries, which Putin himself organized, already found themselves on the threshold of Moscow," he explained. We will remind that on Monday, July 10, in the Kremlin reported that Vladimir Putin met with Prigogin after the rebellion. In the US, both criminals were named.
