Putin after the rebellion of Prigogine signed a record number of secret decrees - Roszmi

Journalists noted that the last such activity of the authorities was in 1999, when at least 64% of documents were classified. In July 2023, the President of the Russian Federation has signed a record number of secret decrees over the last 24 years in the country's history. About it writes the Russian edition of "Mediazon" on August 3.

According to journalists, the signing of secret decrees after June 24, when the head of PEC "Wagner" Yevgeny Prigogin together with mercenaries staged a military rebellion. Already in July, the share of such documents reached 62% - this indicator is an absolute record over the years that Vladimir Putin is in power. In the Mediazon, they looked at the list of decrees that were issued, and they all have their serial number since January. If the number is missed, the decree was secret.

From July 27 to July 31, 12 such documents were approved in the Kremlin, which is the maximum indicator not only during the war, but also since 1999. The share of such documents was higher only in January 1999, when the authorities classified 64% of decrees. "Secret decrees are often related to the awarding of combatants, including posthumously.

At the very beginning of Russian aggression in March 2022, the share of secret decrees reached 54%, now it rose even higher against the background of a large -scale Ukrainian counter -offensive," the statement reads. We will remind, on July 31 it was reported that Vladimir Putin increased 10 times the penalties for failure to appear to the military enlistment office, which is allegedly an incentive for citizens of the Russian Federation to go to fight against Ukraine.
