CIA head called Kremlin to assure US had no role in mutiny FMTNews FMTWorld
Yevgeny Prigozhin led the armed revolt only to abruptly call it off as his fighters approached Moscow.
WASHINGTON: CIA director William Burns called Russian spy chief Sergei Naryshkin after last week’s aborted mutiny in Russia to assure the Kremlin that the US had no role in it, the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal reported on Friday. Burns’ phone call with Naryshkin, the head of Russia’s SVR foreign intelligence service, took place this week and was the highest-level contact between the two governments since the attempted mutiny, the Wall Street Journal said.
The boss of Russia’s Wagner mercenary group, Yevgeny Prigozhin, shocked the world by leading last week’s armed revolt, only to abruptly call it off as his fighters approached Moscow. President Joe Biden said on Monday the brief uprising by Russian mercenaries against the Kremlin was part of a struggle within the Russian system and that the US and its allies were not involved in it.
