THE FUNERALS OF PRIGOZHIN AND PUTIN
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov defined “an absolute lie” the ”many speculations in the West” about the Kremlin’s involvement ”in the tragic death of the plane’s passengers” which crashed on Wednesday in the Tver region, ”including Yevgeny Prigozhin”, the founder of Wagner. As for Prigozhin’s funeral, Peskov says, “it is too early” to say whether Russian President Vladimir Putin will attend. ”We don’t know how long the necessary investigations and investigations will last”. In the press conference Peskov said that ”since we don’t know how long the necessary investigations and the necessary documents related to the investigations will last, now we don’t know what the date of the funeral will be. Therefore it is impossible to speak” of a possible participation of Putin. “The only thing I can say is that the president has a pretty busy work schedule right now,” Peskov added.
THE WORDS OF BIDEN
“I don’t know for sure what happened, but I’m not surprised,” US President Joe Biden said in response to a question about Russian President Vladimir Putin’s role in the death of Wagner founder Yevgeny Prigozhin. Biden said that ”Nothing happens in Russia without Putin being behind it”. After all, the United States was so clear that something could happen to Prigozhin a couple of months ago. “If I were him, I would be careful about what I eat, I would keep the menu under control,” said the US president. Words that Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov called “unacceptable”. “It is not for the president of the United States to talk about tragic events of this kind,” Ryabkov said, quoted by the state news agency Tass, adding that a such an intervention demonstrates Washington’s contempt for diplomacy.
