Or Putin said soldiers could also sign a contract with the Russian Defense Ministry. He did not mention Prigozhin himself. Earlier the mercenary leader said his actions had highlighted weaknesses in Russia's security.

In it, he said he wanted to protest the Russian government, not overthrow it, and that his actions had highlighted the weakness in Russia's security.
