Peskov says intelligence assessments of Prigozhin’s mutiny are ‘nonsense’

Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov told The Washington Post that European intelligence assessments of the situation around the mutiny that was recently attempted by the private military company Wagner are "nonsense."
The Washington Post has run a story, citing intelligence assessments, alleging that Russian security services had warned Russian President Vladimir Putin at least two or three days ahead of time that Wagner founder Yevgeny Prigozhin was preparing a possible rebellion. Steps were taken to boost security at several strategic facilities, including the Kremlin, but otherwise no actions were taken, sources told the newspaper.

Peskov told The Washington Post that the intelligence assessments were "nonsense" and shared "by people who have zero information."
