According to the press secretary of the president, "everyone is doing a common cause. Everyone is fighting for the Motherland"MOSCOW, January 16.
/tass/. The fighters of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation and the Wagner PMCs are fighting for their Homeland, the conflict between the founder of the Wagner PMCs, Yevgeny Prigozhin, and the defense department exists only in the information field. This was announced to journalists on Monday by the press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov.
"We think that basically this conflict exists, of course, in the information space," Peskov said. "Everyone is doing a common cause. Everyone is fighting for the Motherland," he stressed.
According to the Kremlin representative, "the country should know and knows its heroes." He made a special emphasis on the fact that this applies both to the heroes serving in our armed forces and showing miracles of bravery, and to the heroes from the Wagner PMCs. "Both of them will forever be in our memory," Peskov said.
Speaking about the alleged conflict between the leadership of the Ministry of Defense and the Wagner PMCs, the press secretary of the president noted that this is "mainly the product of all these information manipulations." He added that it is one thing when they are "sometimes satisfied with our information opponents," but "sometimes our friends themselves behave in such a way that no enemies are needed." "This should be treated calmly," Peskov urged.
