And, look, coup d etats aren t military-only events. they re political events with military components. and prigozhin provided the military component of this, but he couldn t come through with the political side. he didn t have political support. and the fact that nobody gave him that support in moscow is indicative that putin still has control, control of the security services, and he has the control and the loyalty of at least enough of the elites. i want you to listen to the u.s. secretary of state, antony blinken, on how he sees the bigger picture here for vladimir putin and for russia. listen to this. 16 months ago, russian forces were on the doorstep of kyiv, ukraine, thinking they were going to take the city in a matter of days, erase the country from the map. now they have to be focused on defending moscow, russia s capital, against mercenaries of putin s own making. so this raises lots of profound questions that will be answered, ....

Lot of questions about whether or not yevgeny prigozhin, when he goes to exile in belarus, will retain any sort of control over that or if other solutions will be found by the russian leadership. fred pleitgen, cnn, berlin. professor matthew schmidt teaches national security at the university of new haven and joins me now from connecticut. it s good to see you. good to see you, john. prigozhin military fighters c clearly prigozhin lost his nerve. he was, as you noted earlier, roughly two hours drive within the outskirts of moscow where they were starting to prepare defensive positions. this rebellion didn t appear to be generating the kind of support that he had hoped it would. so in other words, if you re ....
