Peskov denied statements about Putin's possible connection to Prigozhin's death, calling it "an absolute lie," reports Russian media.
Speaking about the causes of the plane crash, the Russian president's spokesman said that there are not enough facts yet, and the investigation will work to clarify the circumstances of the incident. According to him, the results of the investigation will be published.
Peskov emphasized that confirmation of Prigozhin's death requires examinations, including genetic studies. So far, there are no official conclusions.
Regarding the possibility of Putin's participation in Prigozhin's funeral, the Kremlin press secretary said that nothing was known about the president's plans.
"We don't know yet how long the investigation procedures will be, the president generally has a busy schedule," Peskov said.
Peskov also spoke about the PMC itself: "There is no such structure de jure, there is a group, I can't say anything about its future, I don't know."
