Yevgeny Prigozhin, head of the private military company Wagner, commented on the message of Russian President Vladimir Putin, who called the military uprising he started a betrayal.
"The President made a terrible mistake regarding the betrayal of the Homeland. We are patriots, we fought and we fight. And no one is going to surrender at the request of the President, the Federal Security Service (FSB) or anyone else, because we do not want the country to continue living in corruption, deception and bureaucracy," Prigozhin said, according to the media.
