Ukraine should only defend themselves: the event does not want to change the current regime in the Russian Federation -

According to German Chancellor Olaf Soltz, the rebellion of the head of PEC "Wagner" greatly weakened the Putin regime in Russia. German Chancellor Olaf Scholtz said the West was not interested in changing the current political regime in Russia. Europe and America help Ukraine only to protect itself from Russian aggression. About it reports Sky News.

In addition, according to the politician, he did not hope that the head of the Wagner PEC would be able to overthrow Russian President Vladimir Putin during the rebellion. He stated that it is unknown what policy would be pursued. "Wagner's troops are a military unit that operates very aggressively around the world, and very specifically - in the war of Russia against Ukraine," Scholt said.

However, according to the Chancellor, the rebellion of mercenaries was able to greatly weaken Putin's regime and show that cracks are in autocratic power structures. "I really believe that he (Vladimir Putin, ed. ) Is weakened. This shows that the autocratic power structures have cracks, and he does not stand as firmly in the saddle, as he always states," Solz said.

According to him, it is unclear whether this will increase the likelihood that the Kremlin will decide to withdraw their troops from Ukraine to start real peace talks. Recall that US President Joe Biden also said that Putin's regime was weakened by the Wagner PEC. According to him, today Vladimir Putin is weaker than last week. According to him, the President of the Russian Federation has become an outcast all over the world.
