"erin burnett outfront" starts "erin burnett outfront" starts right now. -- captions by vitac -- www.vitac.com "outfront" next, live from ukraine, damage control.

russian president vladimir putin trying to project an image of strength as he faces the biggest threat ever to his authority. is putin still in danger of losing power? his former prime minister says yes, and he will be "outfront" next. plus, where is yevgeny prigozhin? no confirmation that the wagner chief ever made it outside russia. as the fsb keeps its criminal investigation on prigozhin wide open. two moscow reporters who have covered him extensively with be reporting this hour. i'm going to talk to the mayor of kyiv who warns ukraine is not prepared if putin attacks the biggest nuclear plant in all of europe. let's go "outfront." and good evening, and welcome to a special edition of "outfront." i am erin burnett live from ukraine tonight. tonight, putin on defense. the russian president speaking out three days after the armed rebellion led by his former ally yevgeny prigozhin. and make no mistake, a threat to

putin's authority tonight is very well. putin right now is attempting to spin the story tonight. >> translator: an armed rebellion would've been suppressed in any case. the organizers of the rebellion, despite the loss of adequacy, could not fail to understand this. they understood everything, including that they resorted to criminal acts to divide and weaken the country, which is now confronting a colossal external threat, unprecedented pressure from the outside. >> he says the armed rebellion would have been suppressed in any event. there was no evidence of russian troops intercepting or challenging prigozhin in any way, shape, or form. no evidence of any suppression, imminent or anything. putin did not call prigozhin out by name in his speech.

but he did say this. >> translator: it was precisely this outcome, fratricide that russia's enemies wanted. both the neo-nazis in kyiv and western patrons and all sorts of national traitors. they wanted russian soldiers to kill each other. >> that speech was only five minutes. and again, i want to emphasize that it took putin three days to give this five-minute speech. a speech that when you listen to it, broke no new ground, even though the kremlin spokesman dmitry peskov had earlier stated that putin statement would, go, without exaggeration, determine the fate of russia. well, that's what we got. it's unclear if the speech was live or taped. putin spoke from a wood-panelled room. i want to emphasize this is different than normal. it's not the usual backdrop that we so often see behind him. he was angry.

but his delivery was nothing next to what we saw, in an extraordinary 11-minute taped statement by prigozhin, the head of the wagner group also breaking his silence for the first time since the insurrection, and doudge down, saying that he has the support of the people of russia. trance when on june 23rd and 24th, we walked past russian cities, civilians met us with the flags of russia and with the flags and emblems of wagner pmc. they were all happy when we came and when we passed by. many of them still write us words of support, and some are disappointed that we stopped. because in the march of justice, in addition to our struggle for

existence, they saw support for the fight against bureaucracy and other blights that exist in our country today. >> prigozhin's words, his passion, show no sign of backing down. and at this hour, this is an incredible thing. at this hour, it is totally unclear where prigozhin. did he go to belarus where putin says he has to go in exile? is he here in ukraine, is he still in russia somewhere? no one knows, and the uncertain has rocked the region diand the world. according to british intelligence in just the past three weeks, ukraine has recaptured more territory than russia seized in its entire winter offensive. i just spoke to a ukrainian soldier who leads a drone unit along the front lines. he told me the russian soldiers were panicking a bit.

that's the word he used to describe it on saturday. but he says that they have now returned as of today to more normal operations. now, here in kyiv, missile attacks have been happening every few days. we obtained this exclusive video of a strike that happened over the weekend. it's a 25-story building hit by a russian missile in the middle of the night. we could see the large holes in the sides of the building. five people were killed, people sleeping in this strike. and i spoke to vlad, a dental hygienist. he said he and his wife were sleeping and then they heard a deafening sound. >> it was actually unexpected. you thought it couldn't be a bomb. we were not understanding what is happening. i was not ready. it was very unexpected that it can happen in our building. i can never believe that it can be our building.

>> matthew chance is "outfront" to begin our coverage. he is in moscow. and nick paton walsh joins me here in kyiv. what is the very latest there amidst all of this deep uncertainty? >> reporter: err have the course of the past few hours, we've seen a couple of people, vladimir putin, yevgeny prigozhin, sort of emerge from the weekend, and to make their first statement. putin's been notably absent since that wagner mutiny threatened his grip on power at the weekend. but he's now appeared on russian state television. basically saying that he did everything he could to prevent bloodshed and also restating an offer to the wagner mercenaries to either join the russian military or to move to belarus. >> translator: for the first time since the russian rebellion ended, vladimir putin has addressed his nation. a short speech condemning rebel leaders as traitors playing into

the hands of russia's enemies. >> translator: they wanted russian soldiers to kill each other, to kill military personnel and civilians so that in the end russia would lose and our society would split, choke in bloody civil strife. >> reporter: he didn't mention yevgeny prigozhin by name. but the wagner mercenary leader is also now speaking out for the first time since agreeing to call off the armed rebellion that shook the kremlin to its core. denying his aim was to topple president putin. >> translator: the purpose of the march was to prevent the destruction of wagner and the prosecution of those who made a huge number of mistakes in the course of the special military operation due to their unprofessional actions. society demanded this, and all the soldiers who saw us supported us. >> reporter: on russian state

television, damage control has been in full swing after a weekend of mayhem. prigozhin's armed rebellion has failed, the presenter says, russians stood in a united front for president putin, she declares. he's now attempting to claw back some authority by saying his actions had saved russian lives. >> translator: steps were taken to avoid a lot of bloodshed. this took time including those who made a mistake the chance to think again. >> reporter: what will become of yevgeny prigozhin now? whether he will be prosecuted or not remains unclear. though he did appear to confirm for the first time that he may indeed take a kremlin offer to head to belarus and resume wagner's operations from there. but that may no longer be on the

table for a once loyal putin ally who appears to have made a dangerous enemy in the kremlin. >> dangerous indeed. tonight, erin, officials in belarus are refusing to confirm to cnn reports that yevgeny prigozhin is already there, although it has been confirmed that the president or the leader of belarus, alexander lukashenko, will give a news conference tomorrow to answer questions. but belarusian opposition figures that i've spoken to tonight say it would be foolish for prigozhin to feel he is safe and protected in a country where vladimir putin wields so much influence. erin, back to you. >> all right, thank you very much, live from moscow. nick paton walsh is here with me now in kyiv. why this whole thing is happening, this whole attempted

rebellion, and still, tonight, as matthew said, we do not know where prigozhin is. he gives that impassioned 11-minute rant, but we don't know where he is. >> reporter: because of that and because of the fact any time he chooses, he can pick up his phone and deliver a lengthy rant, which, at the heart of it, is still another criticism how badly managed russia's invasion of ukraine has been. he is still a threat to vladimir putin. and you have to remember, 20 years covering vladimir putin, he always gets rid of people who are an opponent to him pretty fast and pretty brutally. and still after this weekend, prigozhin is somehow out there. and you have to get the impression it's hard to imagine putin doesn't have the ability to arrest him, perhaps he might be concerned what happens if he does. and that is fascinating. >> that is fascinating because you would think that if he could have, he would have, and he didn't. nick paton walsh, thank you very much here in kyiv. i want to go now to the former prime minister of russia. he served as putin's first prime

minister, was later dismissed by putin over policy disagreements. he then became a leader of the opposition. he is here with me tonight for his first american television interview since the armed rebellion in russia. and i really appreciate your time, prime minister, thank you very much. let me just start by asking you, as you are watching, as nick paton walsh and i were just discussing, you're watching yevgeny prigozhin march up the m4 towards moscow. were you shocked? >> i was very much surprised because it was very difficult and impossible to imagine that such an event could take place in the fully controlled russia by putin. putin spent over 20 years, and only he could provide the stability. prigozhin just destroyed this image of stability. and the fact that it's a very challenge time for mr. putin.

today he looked very nervous. >> so, why do you think putin did not take prigozhin into custody, kill him? as far as we know, none of those things happened. prigozhin is out putting out 11-minute lengthy rants. why did putin do nothing? is he too weak to? >> there is no exact answer on that. in the morning, he made his short speech in saying that he is a traitor and will be prosecuted, and opened a criminal case against him. and, in fact, everybody thought that they would undertake efforts as a state institution and implement this instruction. but it appeared to be not the case at all. and during the whole day of these mutiny, just no single

state institutions was involved on settling the problem, settling the conflict. it was done on a private basis, not minister of defense, not minister of interior, no one was involved in this. only just on the private basis. that was private people, putin and his friend with arms in the hands with the huge army. prigozhin wanted to achieve three things. he didn't want to change putin power in russia. he wanted first to get the legal status so that the parliament would adopt a piece of legislation, and so that his wagner would be illegal organization. russia right now, in accordance with current legislation, wagner is not legal organization. it is an illegal organization. secondly, he wanted to get ammunition from militaries, and so he wanted to have money. and that is what he started to press putin to get this.

>> so, when we see the speech, obviously we saw prigozhin's speech. and he's angry and he's ranting and he's animated. you see putin, his words are words of great anger. he's not in his normal opulent background where we so often see him. he is in a room which is plain wood behind him and flags. what did you make of his demeanor? you know him, you've worked with him. do you see anything when you look at his face, his delivery, his eyes? >> uh, he looked very pathetic, pathetic and nervous. and, in fact, he, of course, realized that he had been seen by the public as weak. and so he wanted to improve the situation. and right now just people around him, people so-called russian elites working with any government positions started to see putin as not a protector of

their interests anymore, but a weak leader. that's what i'm saying just the process of weakness of the whole putin system started to take place. but the dangerous thing is that -- with such a leader, the system built up by putin that's totally authoritarian could be a dangerous, dangerous state right now because of his feeling at the moment, he's very nervous of what i see tonight. his speech is a demonstration of weakness. >> all right, mikhail, we very much appreciate your time tonight. >> thank you. >> he is the former prime minister for putin in russia. and, next, where exactly is yevgeny prigozhin tonight? two award-winning reporters who

have covered him and putin extensively from moscow are "outfront" tonight with their latest details. plus, new video of russian fighters in disarray and surrendering as ukraine's counteroffensive is rolling on. we're going to take you to the front lines. and ukraine now claiming that russia has drafted and approved a plan to blow up the largest nuclear power plant in europe. my little family is me, aria, and jade. just the three of us girls. i never thought twice about feeding her kibble. but about two years ago, i realed she was overweight. she was always out of breath. that's when i decided to introduce the farmer's dog to her diet. it's just so fresh that she literally gets bubbles in her mouth. now she's a lot more active, she's able to join us on our adventures. and we're all able to do things as a family. ♪ get started at betterforthem.com

vladimir putin accusing the united states and allies of wanting to see russians kill each other during the insurrection. this is a seismic event in this war, one that humiliated putin on the world stage. president biden saying tonight it is too early to know what happens next in russia. he was adamant, though, that the united states had nothing to do with it. >> we made clear that we were not involved, we had nothing to do with it, this was part of a struggle within the russian system. >> jeremy diamond is "outfront" at the white house. jeremy, what are you learning tonight about how closely the white house is watching what's happening in russia and how, in a sense, surprised they were as well. how damaging do they think this is to putin? >> reporter: el, erin, i can tell you that they are watching this extremely closely. there is a sense when you talk to officials inside the white house that the final act of this story may not have yet played out. and that is part of why the

white house has been so, so cautious in describing the events that took place over the weekend, and what may happen in the future. now, in terms of their assessment of how they think this impacted vladimir putin, you heard the secretary of state tony blinken yesterday saying this insurrection revealed cracks in putin's hold on power, but asked today what the impact would be on putin going forward. the national security spokesman john kirby wouldn't even say whether or not this has left putin weakened. again, this speaks to this kind of cautious strategy by the white house, in part, because of the fast-moving nature of these events and the uncertainty going forward, but also because this is a continuation of the white house trying not to weigh in here, trying to avoid the appearance of putting its finger on the scale or trying to take advantage of the instability inside of russia. the president today said it's too early to know exactly where this is headed, and so u.s. officials are going to continue to monitor this, the president's going to continue to be speaking with allies. we're told he is going to speak with the ukrainian president once again some time in the near

future. and tomorrow, erin, we're also expecting the u.s. to announce $500 million of additional security assistance for ukraine. erin? >> jeremy, thank you. "outfront" now, the eastern european correspondent for derspiegel. i'm really glad to have both of you with us because you have covered moscow, russia, covered putin, covered prigozhin more than anybody, both of you. christian, let me start with you. you know putin's been deeply humiliated. you heard his former prime minister saying that he looked pathetic and nervous in that five-minute speech today. what impact did that speech have at home on the russian people? >> i find it difficult to imagine that anybody would be satisfied with a speech like that, because after the speech he had given on saturday, which was quite an emotional and

dramatic speech, we would expect him to say something important. the tv program on russian channels was interrupted. and then he says basically nothing apart from prigozhin is bad, the wagner guys are not bad, they are good, you're free to do whatever you choose, fight with the army, go back to your families, or go to belarus. so i took it as kind of like him personally again telling them that's the deal we made, you don't hear it from other people, you hear it from me directly. >> so, max, what's interesting, and you point the time line out here, right? you first, today, had prigozhin an 11-minute-long rant on tape. and it was after that that we heard from putin. what does that time line say to you? >> honestly, putin's speech was such a letdown this evening. my first thought at the end was,

that's it, why do they even bother doing this? and i think the reason is, is because, more than anything else, prigozhin, when he made his statement this afternoon, he was taking all the headlines not just around the world but also in russia. and it's really remarkable no one in the 23 plus years that putin's been in power has been able to dictate the news agenda to putin like this. it really speaks to how putin is really on the defensive. prigozhin has not confirmed that he actually agreed to go to belarus. we don't know where he is. in his rant today, he didn't seem very remorseful for what he's done. putin's very much on a back foot here. >> certainly he didn't seem reforceful.

he remorseful. people were cheering for him, that's not inaccurate. we don't know where prigozhin is, but we do know that lukashenko, the president of belarus, supposedly played a role in this and that supposedly prigozhin is going to exile in belarus. lukashenko's going to give a press conference. i'm going to put the words press in quotes. he's going to answer some questions tomorrow. what are we going to find out? >> reporter: well, i'm looking forward to this press conference. this is one of the weirdest moments i could think of in my career covering this region. so, to be honest, i have no idea. what i find interesting is putin, for 20 years, has told us about sovereignty as the holiest value in his view of russia. so nobody from the exterior can meddle in the internal political process. now this same guy has allowed lukashenko or asked, even, lukashenko to help dealing with

a completely internal problem, a problem that is entirely of putin's own making. so, this is really interesting. >> so, max, putin from that undisclosed location with the bland background, you know, not the opulent room that we're used to, right, with the marble and all the flowers and all that sort of thing. so, i guess i'm just wondering what position do you think putin's in right now. and, max, why did nothing happen to prigozhin? i know something may still happen to prigozhin. i understand all the comments people are making about stay away from windows and novichok and all that sort of thing. but as of now prigozhin is just wandering around. >> well, this is really, really what's incredible, and it's not just you asking that question. a lot of senior people on the pro-war side in russia have been openly asking why we saw putin basically vow to deal with prigozhin in the harshest way possible. and two days later now this is going on, and we didn't hear a word out of putin for 48 hours.

and there was a one pro-war mp on russian tv last night who's a former lieutenant general in the army. and he was talking about how he used to command a lot of wagner's early covert operations. he was raising a question, i think if you are a putin supporter, it's quite logical, putin always says the one thing i can't forgive is treason. and he said this lawmaker, why haven't they been shot in the head, that is the only way out of the situation, given the terms that putin has set and the challenge that prigozhin has made. >> all right, well, thank you both very much, max, christian, appreciate both of you. , and next, the trench warfare. we have new video of ukraine's counteroffensive, which is going on amidst all of this, targeting russians holed up in trenches on the front line. so what will an increasingly desperate and humiliated putin do next in this war in ukraine? chilling news from ukraine.

the spy chief here in kyiv claims that putin has drafted and approved a plan to blow up the largest nuclear power plant in europe. type 2 diabetes? discover the ozempic® tri-zone. in my ozempic® tri-zone, i lowered my a1c, cv risk, and lost some weight. in studies, the majority of people reached an a1c under 7 and maintained it. ozempic® lowers the risk of major cardiovascular events such as stroke, heart attack, or death in adults also with known heart disease. and you may lose weight. adults lost up to 14 pounds. ozempic® isn't for people with type 1 diabetes.

back in my day, it was scary stories and flashlights. we don't get scared. oh, really? mom can see your search history. that's what i thought. introducing the next generation 10g network. only from xfinity. welcome back to a special edition of "outfront." we are live in ukraine tonight. the head of the wagner group yevgeny prigozhin slamming military leaders in russia yet again, saying his march to moscow revealed, quote, many serious security problems in the country. >> translator: we blocked all military units and airfields along the way in 24 hours, we walked the distance equal to the distance from where the special

military operation started to kyiv. the special military operation would've just lasted a day if we would have been there in february 2022. >> it's an incredibly direct slam, if they did it like i did, they would have taken ukraine in a day. they are releasing video of defense minister sergei shoigu making a rare visit to ukraine. i want to be clear. they put this video out today, but it is unclear when it was actually filmed. the top russian general valery gerasimov who oversees the war, has not been seen in public. nick paton walsh is "outfront." >> reporter: unprecedented chaos in moscow has yet to ease ukraine's bitter fight in the

trenches, close combat around bakhmut two weeks into the continued grind of the counteroffensive open operations filmed over the weekend just as wagner troops roll towards moscow. here, the red, white, and blue are russians in disarray and surrendering. the hope is more will follow as word spreads of the failed rebellion and morale and discipline falter. it was near here ukraine proclaimed monday progress on the front lines with room for hope elsewhere. to the south on another donetsk front, it appears some kremlin-loyal chechen fighters were pulled for the weekend. here they are strutting along an apparent highway near the capital. bakhmut are opportunities for ukraine in the east but also for the west, the bridge, the scene of intense clashes.

captured by this russian drone as ukrainian forces claimed to cross over to the russian-controlled eastern bank, opening another front, perhaps. it is too early to tell whether or if russia is crumbling, and ukraine's progress has been incremental still. the familiar scene when their fighters declared they had captured another small village in the south on monday. none of this yet, their strategic sea change in russian collapse the weekend's madness that zelenskyy visiting troops in the east monday as well will hope follows. he faces anxious choices even with all the kremlin's intimate ugliness so exposed. move now or wait for more in moscow to unravel. he must be sure to make no mistakes of his own or interrupt the torrent of them in moscow.

erin, the whole point of ukraine's counteroffensive has been to keep pushing russia on multiple fronts so they essentially have to make choices between their priorities where they put reserves, where they defend, where they're willing to let go of. and i think what we'll see in the months ahead or weeks or days possibly is a bid to try and make sure moscow is pushed into those difficult decisions at a time when it's in complete chaos and its military command clearly bickering among themselves trying to shift blame, and vladimir putin at the weakest he's been for his entire time in power. >> thank you again. and also tonight, drafted and approved. those are the exact words used by the head of ukraine's military intelligence right here in kyiv. he is saying that putin has concrete plans in place to attack the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, drafted and approved plans. that power plant is the largest nuclear plant in all of europe. as ukraine is gaining ground on the front lines and putin is facing this existential crisis to his own power, there are more fears tonight that he could take

action on the plant. ben wedeman is "outfront" from eastern ukraine. >> reporter: erin, russia has drafted and approved plans to blow up the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, that according to the head of ukrainian intelligence, spy chief, claimed in an interview with the new statesman that russia had mined the cooling ponds at the plant, essential for preventing a nuclear meltdown. the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant is the biggest nuclear power plant in all of europe and is now occupied by russian forces. the plant is in shutdown mode, the only way to keep the fuel cool in the reactors is by constantly pumping water through it. he also claimed that russia had deployed explosive-filled trucks outside of four of the plant's six reactors.

now, keep in mind, ukrainian officials frequently warn of impending disaster at the plant. now, last week, the international atomic energy agency, which maintains monitors at the site, stated that it was aware of these reports that the russians had mined the plant but said that none or no mines were observed during a recent visit by the head of the agency. shortly before wagner boss yevgeny prigozhin's insurrection, president volodymyr zelenskyy warned of possible russian sabotage at the plant and said that radiation does not stop at state borders and who it hits is determined only by the direction of the wind. erin? >> all right, well, thank you very much, ben. real concern tonight, and it's a concern shared by the mayor of kyiv. i'm going to speak with him after this. why he says that putin's

government is now no longer stable and worries of nuclear fears, plus putin's spin machine. you'll want to hear from the russian president's biggest allies on state television are saying tonight because they are now all-out talking as i'm speaking about putin's response to the armed rebellion that has truly rocked the kremlin. they're quitting the kibble.e. and kicking the cans. and feeding g their dogs dog foodod that's actually well, food. developed with vets. made from real meat and veggies. portioned for your dog. and delivered right to your door. it's smarter, healthier pet food. get 50% off your first box at thefarmersdog.com/realfood

edition of "outfront." tonight, taking cover. new video into "outfront" showing children here in the kyiv area taking cover from recent missile barrages which have been coming in really every couple of nights around this time. these children you see are asleep in a makeshift bed in a bathtub. and this is what it's like here in the night across this city. today i spoke to kyiv's mayor vitali klitschko who spoke before prigozhin and putin made their remarks. i asked him about ukrainian intelligence, pointing to a possible attack on the nuclear power plant in zaporizhzhia. it of course would be a catastrophe for ukraine but also for the entire world. mayor klitschko was honest. he says they are not prepared. i asked about that, and i also started by asking him what he thinks is happening inside russia as putin faces the greatest threat ever to his grip on power. >> actually, right now the russian system shows so many

streaming under the water, political streaming. and the russian system, it's not so steady anymore. and more and more people are asking if putin was the reason of this war, and the country going wrong way. and we feel that, we listen to that. that why prigozhin told not accept putin's decision. i'm more than sure definitely the russian people are asking the government, asking putin which reason, why the russians are not any more welcome around the world, why is the iron curtain coming back. and main question, which reason died my husband, my friend, my brother in ukraine. definitely these questions give to putin. >> reporter: do you think that putin has been weakened by the coup attempt?

>> uh, putin disappeared. right now he doesn't listen any commentary from him what he thinks about the current situation. >> reporter: do you think prigozhin is back in ukraine, or does no one know? >> i am not ready to give you the information where prigozhin. prigozhin is criminal and definitely he will take responsibility in international court. >> reporter: i just visited the missile site in kyiv and was talking to someone who woke up at the smoke and debris in the middle of the night. i know that you have had strikes daily every few days here in kyiv. do you expect the strikes to intensify? >> thank you for defensive weapons right now is our defense help us very much.

and we shoot down almost every missile what the russians send to our hometown, missiles. and thank you one more time for that. but we're expecting anything because russia is unpredictable. they explain it as a special operation. it's not that. it's genocide of ukrainian people. >> reporter: president zelenskyy has said that putin is prepared for a terrorist attack on the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, of course, the largest power plant in all of europe. that would be a calamity. it'd be a disaster for europe, it'd be a disaster for kyiv. are you prepared for the possibility of such an attack? >> we hope it's not happens, we hope. but we actually give the instruction to the people.

but, to be honest, to prepare for nuclear war -- >> reporter: there's nothing? >> we are not. and if explosion will be in zaporizhzhia, radiation, we actually have strategy with chernobyl and we remember that. that's why all international pressure have to be in russian putin, never do that. >> sobering there. well, i also asked mayor klitschko what he thinks would happen if prigozhin were to rise to power in russia. he described both prigozhin and putin as, quote, criminals, saying that if one criminal takes over power from another, it doesn't change much. that's certainly the feeling here tonight at kyiv. next, from a hot dog vendor to a billionaire boss of the wagner group, how did prigozhin become one of the russian president's most loyal and brutal lieutenants? he was a caterer. despite the suffering and threat

of constant attacks, see how russia's deadly invasion has failed to break the spirit of those now suffering every few nights missile strikes here in kyiv. our ears connect us to the moments that matter. give them the nutrients they need with lipo. it's formulated with ingredients clinically shown to protect your ears from dizziness, ear ringing, and even. never miss a moment with lipo flavonoid.

welcome back to a special edition of "out front." we are live hoere in ukraine tonight. the russians on full blast doing everything they can to spin the narrative on the potential push, state tv praising putin for standing with military leaders of prigozhin. >> translator: i'm sincerely grateful to our president for his exceptional strength and wisdom. there are all these screams that someone is being replaced or removed. i can assure you, no one is getting replaced. the president does not respond to ultimatums. >> nick roberts is out front with the relationship, a long and bizarre relationship between prigozhin, a former hot dog vendor, and his ally, vladimir putin. >> reporter: from putin chef to billionaire powerful boss, prigozhin's rise to the top

enforcer seems over. saturday, putin indirectly branding prigozhin a traitor, saying he was leading an armed insurrection. the tipping point in escalating tensions, prigozhin sending battle hardened wagner mercenary fighters towards moscow from an undisclosed location, os tensively on his way to exile in belarus, prigozhin denied. prigozhin's point, his beef not with putin directly but with his defense minister, sergei shoigu, whom he blames for starting an inconceived war in ukraine. >> translator: as a result of the ill conceived decisions, it was planned that this unit would

cease to exist on july 1, 2023. >> reporter: wagner pmc grew in the shadows of russia's 2014 war in ukraine, following that, got bigger, supporting russian troops in syria, precisely when prigozhin joined forces with wagner is a well-kept secret. his connections with putin helped him get catering contracts for the russian military and ukraine. prigozhin's real value to putin rocketed in africa. secretly winning influence in countries, including mali, the central african republic, sudan, and libya. making big money on gold, diamond, and other deals on the side. it was prigozhin's private thiefdom shared with putin, whom he always wanted to impress. the ukraine war changed that. prigozhin went public, had victories, potentially pleased putin by taking ground in

bakhmut. but then hubris took hold. he began to bite the hand that once fed him, criticized putin's defense chief, sher guy shoigu, claiming he was being shorted on ammo and his fighters were dying. his powers reached a pinnacle on saturday, adoration before the crowds before putin pushed him into exile in belarus. and if there were any doubt how irreversibly the pair have fallen out, putin again late monday labelling him a traitor. a measure of how much prigozhin is now under putin's skin. he won't even say his name. which really begs the question, why won't putin have the opportunity saturday to just have prigozhin arrested? you look back at putin's actions 20 years ago, 2002, the theater siege in moscow.

there were hundreds of hostages held by chechen rebels. putin authorized the action of the security services. they gassed everyone in the building. 130 hostages died. putin claims to want to avoid bloodshed. 20 years ago, he didn't seem to care about it. this is a weaker putin, not as strong as he once was. >> thank you very much, nick. and next, why russia's brutality even now 16 months into this war, has failed to break something crucial here in ukraine. we'll show you. when i was diagnosed with h-i-v,
