"Prigozhin's Betrayal Puts Putin Under Pressure: MI6 Leader"
TL;DR Summary
MI6 leader Richard Moore suggests that Russian President Vladimir Putin is likely feeling the pressure after Yevgeny Prigozhin, leader of the Wagner Group, staged a mutiny against Putin's military leaders. Prigozhin, who was once considered Putin's creation, turned against him. Putin made a deal with Prigozhin to avoid charges for inciting an armed rebellion, allowing him to live in exile in Belarus. Prigozhin's actions and criticisms of the ongoing war in Ukraine are seen as undermining Putin's reputation as a ruthless leader.
