Wagner convicts train in Belarus - editor of European Radio for Belarus

He shared the information on Espreso TV.

"It is very dangerous that the number of Russian troops in Belarus is constantly increasing. There is already information that the criminals mobilized by Wagner, who were taken from Russian prisons and colonies, are being trained in Belarus. Imagine convicts and criminal elements now armed on Belarusian territory. We have information that there are conflicts between the Russian and Belarusian military, as well as the local population, but this information is not to be disseminated so that Belarusians know less about it. There are not many such conflicts, but they do exist," said the editor of the European Radio for Belarus.

Zmitser Lukashuk noted that an increase in the number of Russian troops on the territory of Belarus could lead to an increase in the number of such conflicts.

• On February 10, ISW analysts concluded that Wagner PMC continues to recruit convicts, but in smaller numbers. 

• On February 11, the British Ministry of Defense reported that Wagner PMC had stopped recruiting prisoners because of their unwillingness to fight and the conflict between its owner, Yevgeny Prigozhin, and the Russian Defense Ministry.
