On the afternoon of June 24, Russian President Vladimir Putin had a telephone conversation with his counterpart from Kazakhstan, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, about the situation in the country. According to the press service of the head of the republic, Tokayev noted that “the constitutional order and the rule of law are an indispensable condition for maintaining law and order in the country.” In addition, Putin held talks with Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko and Turkish leader Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
On the evening of June 23, Yevgeny Prigozhin accused the army of shelling the Wagner PMC camp, which he founded.
