Prigozhin claims recruiting Peskov's son to Wagner PMC at his request

Russian media reported the information. 

According to Prigozhin, Peskov's son allegedly was loading Uragan MLRS as part of his service, and his documents were issued under a different name.

"I took him in, changing his surname, name and patronymic. Only I and the head of the personnel service knew about it. He was assigned to the Uragan MLRS crew . He was loading a transport and charging vehicle. Their vehicle worked very well," Prigozhin said.

He added that Dmitry Peskov "asked for advice last summer, as his son was going to go to war against Ukraine and "no one could dissuade him."

In September 2022, Russian hosts of the Popular Politics channel called the son of the Russian presidential spokesman, Nikolai, live on air and, under the guise of a military commissar, asked him to report for examination the next day, to which he refused. 

Peskov's son said that he would not agree to go to war as a volunteer, but was ready to fight at the request of Vladimir Putin.
