Quote: "I can't [comment – ed.], but it looks like another hoax. Unfortunately, even respected publications in recent times quite often do not disdain it. "
The newspaper states that two Ukrainian officials confirmed that Prigozhin spoke several times with representatives of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine.
In particular, one of the officials allegedly said that Prigozhin made a proposal regarding Bakhmut "more than once," but Kyiv rejected it because officials didn't trust Prigozhin and believed that his proposals could be insincere.
