Became dangerous when he started demanding weapons: WSJ found out who killed Prigogine

This is stated in The Wall Street Journal from December 22. Western scouts said that the murder of Prigogine was preparing for two months. However, the "grounds" to eliminate the chief "Wagner" arose long before. Back in the summer of 2022, Patrushev warned Putin that Wagner had too much military and political influence. He was convinced that it was a threat to the Kremlin. However, the leader of the aggressor country ignored the reservation, watching the successes of the PEC on the front line.

Everything changed when Prigogine began to complain about the insufficient provision of his fighters. One day he personally called the President and rudely demanded weapons. Later, Patrushev used this conversation as an argument that the head of mercenaries became dangerous. When, at the end of June, Prigogine dreamed of rebellion, sending his armed fighters to the territory of Russia, his fate was decided. Patrushev saw the opportunity to finally remove the head of "Wagner".

In the Kremlin, few people have believed that the organizer of the "march" against the command would be able to avoid consequences. After the rebellion and successful negotiations with the leader of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko, Prigogin was alarmed. He understood that he had acquired enemies and could be liquidated, but adhered to the agreement. At the same time, he was closely monitored. In early August, Patrushev called an assistant to his office.

On that day, it was ordered to start preparing the operation to eliminate Prigogine. Later, the plans showed Putin himself, and he did not argue. On the day of his death, the Chairman of the Wagner PEC was waiting at the airport when security inspectors would complete the aircraft check. According to intelligence, it was during this delay that a small bomb appeared under the wing. A few days after a plane crash in Russia, the DNA tests had confirmed Prigogine's death.

Nine more killed with him, including the commander of the Wagnerivtsi Dmitry Utkin. We will remind, in Roszma informed that Yevgeny Prigogin planned a speech in the State Duma of the Russian Federation to return the commitment of President Vladimir Putin. The head of PEC "Wagner" sought permission from the podium, but received a refusal. The FSB Exo FSB and Russian terrorist Igor Girkin shared that he was afraid of liquidation. He suggests that they were arrested to "amnesty" as a prison later.
