Abstract

FEATURES THE dramatic but short-lived mutiny by the Wagner mercenary group, on June 23-24, has left Russia in disarray. According to NATO estimates, in the battle of Bakhmut, in which Russia gained territory with frontal assaults, Russia lost five men for every Ukrainian killed. According to the Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, Prigozhin met with Putin in the Kremlin on June 29, five days after the mutiny collapsed, and assured him of Wagner's unconditional support. In a June 23 video released by his press service, Prigozhin said that the Defense Ministry deceived both Putin and Russian society when it claimed, in February 2022, that the country faced an imminent threat from Ukraine.
