Prigozhin's Visit to Belarus Raises Intelligence Concerns

The leader of the Wagner PMC, Yevgeny Prigozhin, is expected to visit Belarus but will not use the country as a permanent base, according to the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine. The representative suggests that Prigozhin may use Belarus as a logistics hub or for transferring personnel to other destinations. The choice of Belarus is likely due to limited options, as countries with democratic governments are unlikely to agree, and North Korea is not a viable option. Prigozhin's visit comes after a demarche against the Russian military leadership, and talks with Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko.
