The two presidents spoke on the phone less than a week after the Russian government stopped the Wagner Group, a private mercenary army led by Yevgeny Prigozhin, from staging a significant coup.
After seizing control of two significant south Russian cities, the private mercenary army halted its advance towards Moscow after the Kremlin, with the assistance of Belarusian President Aleksandr Lukashenko, was able to negotiate a settlement with Prigozhin.
Later, Prigozhin denied wanting to depose the Russian government in a Telegram video message. He said that the march was in support of justice. Following the rebellion, concerns about Putin’s ability to lead are being voiced, and the West predicted that the Russian leader was no longer “invincible.”
