World Leaders React to Potential Rebellion in Russia, Raising Questions About Stability and War in Ukraine

On Sunday, world leaders reacted to a potential rebellion in Russia, as the Wagner Group, a mercenary force, attempted to take control of the Russian military headquarters in Rostov-on-Don. Rep. Mike Turner said the conflict between Wagner Group leader Yevgeny Prigozhin and President Vladimir Putin was "inevitable" given Prigozhin's public criticism of the Russian government. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the world is seeing "cracks emerge" in Putin's Russia, raising questions about the stability of the Russian government and the future of the war in Ukraine.
