According to the American president, Putin weakened after the rebellion of the “Wagnerites” in Russia.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has clearly weakened since the attempted coup by the private military company Wagner. This is what the American leader Joe Biden said in a meeting with journalists on Wednesday, June 28, CNN reports.
The US president initially said it was “hard to say” whether Putin’s position had really been shaken after the coup attempt, “but it’s clear he’s losing the war.”
“He’s losing the war in his country. He’s become an outcast around the world. And it’s not just NATO, it’s not just the European Union, it’s Japan,” Biden said.
Asked again if Putin is weaker today than last week, the US leader replied: “I know that.”
We will remind, Biden previously said that the United States and its closest allies were not involved in the rebellion of PMC Wagner in Russia.
Opinion polls in the United States, conducted before and after the Wagner rebellion, showed an increase in the number of citizens who support providing arms to Ukraine to protect against Russia.
