The Russian Foreign Ministry warned Western countries against using Wagner chief Yevgeny Prigozhin's rebellion to achieve what it called "Russophobic goals".
"Such attempts are futile and will not find a response either in Russia or among sensible political forces abroad", the Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
It said the insurrection "prompts sharp rejection in the Russian society" and claimed that it "plays into the hands of Russia's external enemies".
"The adventuristic aspiration of the conspirators, in the, aimed at destabilizing the situation in Russia, destroying our unity, and undermining the efforts of the Russian Federation aimed at ensuring reliable international security", the statement read. "We are convinced that in the near future the situation will find a solution worthy of the age-old wisdom of the Russian people and the Russian State", it continued.
