Beijing and Prigozhin: what does China think of the Wagner uprising?
b'
It\\u2019s now a week since the Wagner Group revolted against the Kremlin.
\\n
\\nThough the dramatic uprising was quelled within 24 hours and the group\\u2019s leader, Yevgeny Prigozhin, is now exiled to Belarus, the episode will have lasting impact on President Putin\\u2019s authority.
\\n
\\nAmong those closely watching the events unfold would have been the Chinese leadership, who sent out a statement of support for Putin, but only after it was clear that the revolt had been put down.
\\n
\\nWhat will those in Zhongnanhai make of the Prigozhin uprising? And could something similar happen in China?
\\n
\\nOn the episode, I\\u2019m joined by James Palmer, a deputy editor at Foreign Policy and long time China hand, to discuss.
