The HinduWagner Group vs Putin | How does India see the fallout of failed mutiny? It’s been a dramatic week in Russia, with what some called a coup against Russia’s top military leadership contained- what’s clear is that the failed mutiny by the Wagner group militia chief had reverberations around the world, not the least in Moscow, where Russian President Vladimir Putin said it was a “stab in the back”. On June 23, Yevgeny Prigozhin, the leader of a Russian militia group fighting alongside Russian troops in Ukraine, said in a video statement that he was launching a rebellion against Russia’s defence leaders, specifically Defence Minister Shoigu and Army chief Gen Gerasimov after his men were killed in Russian strikes. Prigozhin and the Wagner group set up in 2014 helped the Russian army in the Donbass region before the Annexation of Crimea, and now with Russia’s war in Ukraine. By removing Wagner from the frontlines and folding forces into the Russian army, Putin may wish to maintain deniability over any war crimes committed by the Wagner group in Ukraine The outcomes remain mixed- listen in to how Ukrainian President Zelensky and US President Biden saw the Russian revolt- while Biden said, mistaking Ukraine for Iraq, that the mutiny had weakened the Russian president, Zelensky said this is the time for the west to arm the Ukrainian army Finally lets see how India sees the fallout of the last week’s events: 1.
