Mercenaries of the Russian PMC Wagner after leaving Bakhmut will continue to fight in Ukraine. This was said by the Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council Alexei Danilov in an interview for the BBC, published on Saturday, May 27.
Yes, when asked if the “Wagnerites” would really come from Bakhmut, he confirmed.
“Yes, this is happening. But this does not mean that they will stop fighting us. They will focus more on other fields … they will regroup on other three points,” said Danilov.
The Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council supported the decision of the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to defend Bakhmut for several months, as it is Ukrainian land.
“If we start leaving every settlement, it could lead to our western border, as Putin wanted from the first days of the war,” Danilov explained.
According to him, the Ukrainian military continues to control a small part of the city and it is important to remember that “Bakhmut played a huge role in this war.”
Recall that on Thursday the head of the Wagner PMC, Yevgeny Prigozhin, announced the departure of mercenaries from Bakhmut. Until June 1, the bulk of the “Wagnerites” will be transferred to the rear camps, he assured.
Earlier, the Armed Forces of Ukraine said that the PMC Wagner group in Bakhmut was almost destroyed, which is why Prigozhin wanted to leave the city.
