Deep dives
Retreat of the Russian coup attempt
The leader of the Wagner group, Progosion, announced the retreat of their armed uprising, effectively ending the coup attempt. There were indications of a deal between Belarus and Progosion, but no official confirmation from the Kremlin. The Russian military's reliance on mercenaries like Wagner in the Ukraine war played a role in the coup attempt. While the immediate danger to Putin's regime might have passed, it remains a humiliating and existential crisis for him, with potential implications for the war in Ukraine.
