The leader of the mercenary group has become more and more vocal in his criticism of the Russian military.
No evidence has been provided on the claims of a plot to assassinate Yevgeny Prigozhin. Pic: APRussian mercenary group leader has Yevgeny Prigozhin appeared to laugh off claims of a plot to assassinate him, describing it as"a very good idea".
Russian politician Vladimir Rogov has claimed - without providing evidence - that Volodymyr Zelenskyy and the director of the CIA have discussed killing the oligarch. Once dubbed"Putin's chef", Prigozhin is head of the Wagner Group which has been recruiting convicts to fight in Ukraine.Mr Rogov, chairman of a Russian organisation in occupied Zaporizhzhia, told state-owned media on Tuesday:"Prigozhin is effective, and his killing would make a lot of sense, given the media component and how they spin their victories.
"Zelenskyy's inner circle and a fairly large number of people are aware of this request to ask, and even demand, that the Americans kill Prigozhin." It comes after Mr Prigozhin clashed with his long-time ally Vladimir Putin over the capture of Soledar in Ukraine.
