“You may recall when you asked me about Prigozhin, I said that if I were him, I would be careful what I drink and what I drive. I don’t know exactly what happened, but I’m not surprised,” Joe Biden first reacted to the news of Prigozhin’s death.
The first reaction of the US president to Prigozhin’s death
The United States called inaccurate the version that Yevgeny Prigozhin’s plane was shot down by an air defense system. The option of explosion directly on board the aircraft is also being considered.
It should be noted that on Wednesday, August 23, 2023, a business jet RA-02795 carrying the owner of the Wagner PMC, Yevgeny Prigozhin, and his assistant Dmitry Utkin, crashed in the Tver region of Russia. In addition to them, other passengers and staff were killed.
