He has nowhere to go. Speaking of the guard, this just popped

Putin instructed to arm the National Guard with tanks to protect him

In the near future, the Ministry of Defense may lose some of the tanks that it needs so much in the war with Ukraine. Frightened by the rebellion, Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered the formation of a second army, which would be subordinate to his old friend, the head of the National Guard, Viktor Zolotov.

It could get tanks and heavy weapons, Zolotov said. According to him, this issue is now being discussed with the President.

Zolotov called the work of the security forces, who did not take part in the hostilities with the Wagner PMC, "magnificent." Although outwardly it looked like complete chaos - at checkpoints against tanks, the security forces set up machine guns and sandbags, and public utilities set up barriers from dump trucks and tore up ditches on federal highways.

Where Putin was during the Wagner rebellion remains a mystery. In one of the most dramatic moments in the history of the country, he worked with documents in the Kremlin, his press secretary Dmitry Peskov claimed. At the same time, Putin's plane, equipped with equipment for managing the army, took off from Moscow and disappeared from radar in the Tver region, where the Valdai residence of the president is located.
