Putin may have ended the Wagner Group rebellion by conciliation, but it has also taken a toll on his image. Putin has often spoken out against Putin in his own country over the Russia-Ukraine war, and now former world champion Garry Kasparov, a veteran chess player, has also targeted Putin for Yevgeny’s coup. He has clearly said that the illusion that Putin is invincible is gone.
Kasparov’s tweet
Kasparov tweeted that Russia has long turned into a mafia country and that Russia collapsed years ago. He said, ‘The mafia is what the mafia does. Whatever agreement was reached today, there has been bloodshed and Putin’s illusion of invincibility has been dispelled. He and his comrades have understood what fear is. Moscow was threatened.
There were earlier tweets against Putin
Earlier on Saturday when Yevgeny rebelled, Kasparov tweeted, ‘I said no political system works in Russia and the complete failure in Ukraine has exposed that. Who will follow the order now?
Garry Kasparov said, ‘As successes on the Ukrainian battlefield mount, uneasiness in Russia grows. Failure is always an orphan… a scapegoat will be found and their assets will be confiscated. But ultimately only those responsible will be held responsible. This is not the first time Kasparov has been openly critical of Putin, having raised questions against his own government on several occasions.
Yevgeny went down in rebellion
Let us tell you that during the Ukraine war, Yevgeny Prigozhin alleged that Russia had attacked the fighters of the Wagner group. For this he criticized the Russian military leadership. Yevgeny Prigozhin was known to be a confidant of Putin, but as soon as Yevgeny rebelled on Saturday, Putin was furious. After mediation by Belarus, a compromise was finally reached and the rebellion ended. The agreement stipulated that Russia would not take action against the rebel troops and that Yevgeny would remain in Belarus.
