Vladimir Putin says he “avoided great bloodshed”. The Russian president spoke for the first time since Wagner’s brief rebellion. “From the beginning of the events, measures were taken on my direct instructions in order to avoid a great bloodshed”affirmed the Russian president in a short televised address to the nation.
Wagner members can join the army or “leave”. Vladimir Putin proposed to the militiamen of the group of Evguéni Prigojine who took part in the rebellion to integrate the regular army, to “to return to their families and loved ones” or of “to go to Belarus”according to the Kremlin.
Evgeni Prigojine justifies his actions. On Monday, Wagner’s boss said he started the rebellion to save his organization, not to seize power. He claimed that his actions had brought to light the “serious security issues” in Russia.
