Wagner’s boss’ catering business is said to have lost its contract with the army, which had depended on his services for more than fifteen years. Moscow will have to quickly organize another supply of food for its soldiers.
Wagner’s headquarters at 2 Zolnaya Street in St. Petersburg is now just an anonymous 23-story office building. The white letters that formed the name of the company on the glass doors were peeled off on Saturday by maintenance workers. The large sign on the roof disappeared the same day and the employees left. The private military company, owned by the mutineer Evgueni Prigojine, announced “suspending its recruitment for a month”.
Across Russia, the Prigozhin economic empire is being dismantled. On June 30, watchdog Roskomnadzor blocked the news sites of Patriot Media Group, the billionaire’s media conglomerate, which includes his agency RIA FAN and the notorious troll farm Internet Research Agency. Wagner’s chief did not limit his business to mercenary and influence operations. It sits at the top of a tangle of companies, difficult to disentangle and trace but whose ramifications extend into the field of finance, construction, the exploitation of natural resources and logistics.
