Russian Soldiers Encourage Wagner Fighters to Defect to Ukraine

The Russian Volunteer Corps (RDK), a military volunteer group that has fought for Ukraine's sovereignty, is urging fighters from the Wagner Group, a Russian paramilitary organization, to switch sides and join their cause against the Kremlin. This comes after the presumed death of Yevgeny Prigozhin, a prominent member of the Wagner Group, in a plane crash. The RDK leader, Denis Nikitin (Kapustin), called on the Wagner fighters to seek revenge and join their ranks, offering security and decent conditions. The appeal highlights the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the potential for regime transformation in Russia through Ukraine's battlefield and Western military support.
