Biden makes first public comments on Wagner revolt in Russia: 'We had nothing to do with it'

President Biden addressed the Wagner Group's revolt against Russian President Vladimir Putin's regime for the first time on Monday, saying the top priority for the U.S. and NATO was to establish that they had "nothing to do with it.

Biden says he asked for hour-by-updates on the situation throughout the weekend, in addition to holding virtual meetings with key allies. He clarified that the U.S. is still assessing the fallout from the weekend's events and went on to affirm that the U.S. is continuing its full support for Ukraine, 

"They agreed with me that we had to make sure…we gave Putin no excuse to blame this on the West, to blame this on NATO. We made clear that we were not involved. We had nothing to do with it. This was part of a struggle within Russian system," Biden said.

"I also talked at length with President [Volodymyr] Zelenskyy of Ukraine. We'll be keeping in contact with him and maybe speaking to him later today," Biden continued. "I told him that no matter what happened in Russia, we the United States will continue to support Ukraine's defense and its sovereignty and its territorial integrity."
