hello welcome to our viewers joining us in the united states and all around the world. i m max foster in london. we begin this morning with the weekend rebellion inside russia led by the wagner group of mercenary fighters. its chief yevgeny prigozhin ordered his troops to march towards moscow to seek revenge after accusing the military leadership of killing his forces and claiming to seize military sites in two russian cities and then claim within 125 miles of the capital but the insurrection came to an abrupt end when prigozhin said a deal was struck to avoid bloodshed. the kremlin said criminal charges against prigozhin will be dropped and he ll go in exile in belarus. but prigozhin himself hasn t confirmed any of that detail and russian state media report this morning that prigozhin remains under investigation for inciting the armed rebellion. the entire episode raises questions whether vladimir putin is losing his decades-long grip on power. cnn s nic robertson joins me n
