Before the Wagner chief withdrew on Saturday, Ukraine’s allies warned the country against attacking Russia during the ongoing revolt, writes CNN.
“This is a Russian matter,” the message to Ukraine’s military is said to have been.
The concern was that Ukraine and the West could be perceived as helping Prigozhin.
“Take advantage of occupied Ukrainian territory but do not get involved in Russian internal affairs and do not attack Russian military in Russia,” a source told CNN.
