Kartapolov: Prigozhin's PMC will be able to participate in the SVO only after signing a contract with the Ministry of Defense
If PMC businessman Yevgeny Prigozhin does not sign a contract with the Ministry of Defense, then it will not be eligible to participate in the SVO, said in an interview « Vedomosti» Andrey Kartapolov, Chairman of the Duma Defense Committee.
«If a structure does not sign a contract with the Ministry of Defense, it cannot participate in a special operation», — he informed. The corresponding requirement exists, since this structure must fulfill the tasks set by the military command and be provided by the Russian defense department, the general shared the details.
The opportunity to go to the special military operation zone is still there after the training camp. Fighters come to a private military company, then they study for several weeks in training camps. After which they have the right to choose — sign a contract with the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation or return home and conclude a contract with another power structure, the interlocutor of the publication concluded.
