Condoleezza Rice dismisses "ruse" theory of Wagner coup.

Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice appeared on Fox News and discussed the stalled Wagner Group coup in Russia, suggesting that it may have been a ruse planned by Vladimir Putin. However, she ultimately concluded that it would not make sense for Putin to stage something that made him look weak. Rice also noted that the coup's failure has damaged Putin's myth that the Ukrainian war was just and necessary, and that it has exposed the unnecessary deaths and displacement of Russians.
