Businessman and founder of the private military company (PMC) “Wagner” Yevgeny Prigozhin asked French President Emmanuel Macron to ensure the protection of the son of the head of the “House of Russia” in the Central African Republic, Dmitry Syty. The corresponding letter is published by the press service of Prigozhin.

“Dear Mr. President! (…) Dmitry Sytyi’s son is a French citizen and lives in France. I ask you to give instructions to provide Dmitry’s son with worthy protection from the terrorists who tried to attack Dmitry Sytyi “, indicates the document.

Recall that on December 16, 2022, the head of the Russian House, Dmitry Syty, was hospitalized in Bangui (the capital of the Central African Republic) after an assassination attempt: a package addressed to him exploded.
