Russian coup fears: Wagner Group creates unrest in Moscow | LiveNOW from FOX
A Russian government agency is opening a criminal investigation into Wagner Group chief Yevgeny Prigozhin after he called for an armed rebellion on Friday, which was aimed at removing the country’s defense minister.
In a series of video and audio recordings, Prigozhin angrily accused Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu of ordering a rocket strike on the private military contractor’s field camps where the group is fighting on behalf of Russia in Ukraine.
LiveNOW’s Andrew Craft spoke with national security expert Hal Kempfer about the fears of a coup growing in Russia.
