Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said on Saturday that the rebellion by mercenary chief Yevgeny Prigozhin shows Russia's invasion of Ukraine is backfiring against Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Meloni "is following closely the events unfolding in Russia, which show how its aggression against Ukraine is causing instability within the Russian Federation," Meloni's office said in a statement.
