Washington: The United States said on Tuesday that Washington would soon announce measures against the Wagner Group over its past activities in Africa. During a routine press briefing on Tuesday, Matthew Miller, a spokesman for the US State Department, said, “I will put it in context – according to the nature of Yevgeny Prigozhin, he is subject to prosecution in the United States. We are prosecuting him here.” Would like to see.” for the offenses with which he has been charged.”
Responding to a media question about whether Prigozhin should be declared persona non grata and Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko welcoming the Wagner chief to his land, Miller said, “I’ll repeat what I said, that Lukashenko The decision to welcome them shows Belarus that it is not acting in the interests of its people, but in the interests of the Kremlin.”
“I will say, I have no United States assessment of the situation. As I said yesterday, and as Secretary Blinken said on Sunday, wherever the Wagners go, there is death and destruction in their wake. Therefore, President Lukashenko’s decision to welcome Prigozhin to Belarus, I think, is another example of Vladimir Putin choosing the interest of the Kremlin over the Belarusian people,” Miller said.
He said the US would continue to support Ukraine and its military to repel Russian troops. “In the context of what happens next, continuing US support for Ukraine and continuing US support for the Ukrainian military’s work to repel Russian troops, whether they are Ministry of Defense troops, or whether they are Wagner Forces, Or whether they are the next iteration of Wagner forces, if any, appears to be withdrawing those forces from Ukraine’s borders.”
“And just as you will see continued action from us in the near future to hold Wagner accountable, you will see continued action from us in the near future to continue supplying essential equipment, military equipment, to the Ukrainian military.” To press your case on the battlefield,” he said during a State Department briefing on Tuesday.
