Revealed the request of the West to Kyiv against the backdrop of an attempted rebellion in Russia

CNN: The West talked Ukraine out of striking Russia in an attempted mutiny by PMC Wagner

Allies from a number of Western countries dissuaded the Ukrainian side from using an attempted rebellion in the Russian Federation, organized by the head of Wagner PMC Yevgeny Prigozhin, to strike inside the country, reports CNN with reference to a Western official.

According to the publication, Kyiv’s partners feared that Ukraine and the West would look like allies of the founder of a private military company that threaten the sovereignty of the Russian Federation. An anonymous official noted that the message for Ukraine was sent at the level of foreign ministers, deputies, as well as through ambassadors.

“The message was not to rock the boat there, this is Russia’s internal affair… The allies warned the Ukrainians not to provoke the situation. Use the opportunities on the territory of Ukraine, but do not get involved in internal affairs and do not strike at offensive targets inside Russia, ”the source of the American TV channel shared the details.

The head of Wagner PMC Yevgeny Prigozhin announced the beginning of the rebellion on the night of June 24. Prigozhin accused the RF Armed Forces of hitting the company’s rear camps and promised to respond. On the morning of the same day, the Wagnerites occupied the building of the headquarters of the Southern Military District in the center of Rostov-on-Don, and the presence of columns of a private military company in the Voronezh and Lipetsk regions was also reported.
