"Russian Propaganda and Putin's Funding Claims: Unveiling Prigozhin's Trillion Rouble Empire"

Russian propagandist Dmitrii Kiseliov claimed that the Kremlin spent at least a trillion roubles (US$11.2 billion) on contracts with the Wagner PMC and Concord Holding, owned by Yevgeny Prigozhin. The Wagner PMC received over 858 billion roubles, while Concord Holding separately provided services worth 845 billion roubles. This information, distributed by Kremlin media, highlights the scale of business and ambitions of Prigozhin's companies. It is worth noting that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin previously denied any connection to the Wagner PMC but later admitted to paying them.
