Putin calls the uprising started by the head of Wagner's group as a stab in the back for the Russian people.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has appeared at a press conference, after the chaos created in Russia in the last few hours.
Putin has urged Russians to stay informed about what he has to say. President Putin says some Russians have been "tricked into a criminal adventure" without specifically mentioning the Wagner group's rebel fighters.
"Russia is fighting the hardest battle for its future, the entire machinery of the West is against us. Russia will defend itself, this is treason, a stab," declared Putin .
The Russian president also warns of imminent punishment for those who divide Russian society.
"Those who have organized an armed rebellion will be held accountable. Those involved in it, I call on you to stop their criminal actions. All those who went on the path of treason will be punished and held accountable. The necessary orders have been given to the armed forces.
What we are facing now is betrayal. Personal interests have led to the betrayal of our country and the cause our armed forces are fighting for," said the Russian president.
