A copy of Prigozhin's calendar obtained by Die Welt and shared with Insider shows just how deeply enmeshed he was with the Putin regime.
Putin's name appears in Prigozhin's calendar only twice, and neither entry records a one-on-one meeting.
Wagner employees typically identify themselves and sign documents using three or four-digit employee numbers, and most Prigozhin's meetings with Wagner Group employees are presented this way.
These rows of data extracted from Yevgeny Prigozhin's private calendar show Wagner Group personnel identified solely by their employee numbers.
In the end, his demands for a slot on Putin's calendar went unanswered.
