The West has interpreted Wagner's failed June 23-24 mutiny as a challenge to President Vladimir Putin's rule that illustrates the weakness of the 70-year-old Kremlin chief and the strain of the Ukraine war on the Russian state. In the video, the authenticity of which Reuters could not immediately verify, a man whose voice and Russian sounded like Prigozhin's, is heard welcoming his men."We fought honourably," said Prigozhin."You have done a great deal for Russia. What is going on at the front is a disgrace that we do not need to get involved in."
