Wagner Group founder Yevgeny Prigozhin has said his soldiers will not sign any contracts with Russia’s defence ministry. Prigozhin said the ministry might use the failure to comply with the order as a reason to deprive Wagner of supplies. His blunt refusal is a response to an announcement made by the Russian Ministry of Defence on June 10 that directed “volunteer formations” will be asked to sign contracts directly with the Ministry of Defence. Meanwhile, The Akhmat paramilitary group, considered to be a private army of Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov, has signed the contract.
