BLUF: President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia is taking measures to strengthen his personal security and solidify his grip on power following a failed rebellion led by Yevgeny V. Prigozhin. While rewarding loyalty among the ruling elite and showering the security forces with cash, Putin has avoided widespread purges and instead aims to coup-proof his system. Analysts believe that these actions may lead to a destabilizing situation in the long term, despite short-term wins for Putin. The president’s focus on personal and political survival is evident in his calculated responses and compromise.
