After Wagner’s private army revolt in Russia, US President Joe Biden denied any responsibility on the part of the West. “This was part of a struggle within the Russian system,” Biden said at the White House.
After the weekend’s events, he videotaped key US allies to make sure everyone was in agreement, the US president said. Biden first publicly commented on the events on Monday.
“Made it clear we weren’t involved”
It was agreed that Kremlin chief Vladimir Putin would not be given an excuse to blame the West or NATO. “We made it clear that we were not involved. We had nothing to do with it,” Biden said. It was crucial that the Allies act in a coordinated manner.
A smoldering power struggle between the regular army and the private mercenary group Wagner escalated in Russia over the weekend. Led by their boss Yevgeny Prigozhin, the Wagner mercenaries occupied the southern Russian city of Rostov-on-Don on Saturday and advanced towards Moscow. Surprisingly, on Saturday night, Prigozhin put an end to his rebellion again.
