The revolt by Russia’s Wagner mercenary group against President Vladimir Putin over the war in Ukraine has revealed divisions within the Russian leadership, French President Emmanuel Macron said Sunday, AFP reported.
The abandoned march on Moscow “shows the divisions that exist within the Russian camp, and the fragility of both its military and its auxiliary forces,” Macron told the Provence newspaper.
He added that “the situation is still developing” and that he was “following the events hour by hour.”
“All this should make us very vigilant, and fully justifies the support that we are giving to the Ukrainians in their resistance,” he said.
