Russian state television on Sunday (Jun 25) showed Russian President Vladimir Putin expressing confidence in plans for Ukraine in an interview that appeared to have been recorded before

"We feel confident, and, of course, we are in a position to implement all the plans and tasks ahead of us," Putin said."This also applies to the country's defence, it applies to the special military operation, it applies to the economy as a whole and its individual areas."

The comments in an interview with Kremlin correspondent Pavel Zarubin were broadcast by Rossiya state television. Zarubin said the interview was done after a meeting with military graduates, in an apparent reference to an event held on Wednesday.The short report did not mention Saturday's revolt, in which Wagner mercenaries took a southern city before heading toward Moscow.

In its daily briefing on Sunday the defence ministry also did not mention anything about the actions of Wagner and its leader Yevgeny Prigozhin. Asked in the interview how much time he dedicates to what Russia calls its special military operation, Putin said:"Of course, this is paramount, every day starts and ends with this."
