Wagner chief breaks his silence: Prigozhin releases 11-minute audio file on since halting mutiny

Yevgheny Prigozhin has broken his silence. The Wagner boss has just released an 11-minute audio recording for the first time since Saturday’s failed coup. He says he didn’t want to overthrow Russia’s leadership, but instead wanted to hold those responsible for failures in Ukraine accountable. Officials in Russia are calling for unity two days after a failed coup attempt. Authorities desperate to showcase a sence of normality. In a video, President Vladimir Putin addressed a youth forum. And earlier today footage of the Russian defence minister was released, but the video has no sound and it’s unclear when it was shot. FRANCE 24’s International Affairs Commentator, Douglas Herbert, tells us more.
