"To anyone claiming that Prigozhin did this in agreement with Putin: I have seen a lot of stupidity coming from Russia but plunging an entire country into chaos just to relieve two men from command and office is like cleaning the windshield of your car with a flame thrower."

"Vladimir Osechkin:
1) Putin has lost all credibility and respect/fear from the Russian military and security services.
2) Would not be surprised to see some form of transfer of power in Russia by year-end.
3) The events on June 23-24 were categorically not staged. The coup attempt was real.
4) Certain power brokers intentionally allowed Prigozhin to get as far as he did and leveraged the consequences to their advantage.
5) Beneficiaries of the developments are 'behind the scenes.'
6) Prigozhin lashed out and chose to stage the coup in response to Shoigu's June 10 order to shut down Wagner PMC.
7) When Prigozhin got far enough, which was intentionally allowed, appropriate pressure was applied on him by the FSB to stop, because they can read him like a book.
8) Osechkin theorizes Putin let Prigozhin go because Prigozhin holds significant kompromat on Putin.


NOTE: Osechkin has access to mountains of non-public information on Prigozhin and is a foremost expert on the madman because of his human rights work focused on Wagner war crimes."

Still, the whole drama is a missed opportunity for a quick end to this war.
Normal russian just lost a big time chance to take down dictator putin.
Suffering will continue, situation will become worse.

🇮🇹 The myth of the unity of Putin's Russia is over, said Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani.

He believes that the attempted mutiny committed by the "Wagner" PMC showed the weakness of Russia and the Russian government, and can also help Ukraine. The invasion of Ukraine turned out to be a boomerang for Putin. The Russians could not win, they failed the blitzkrieg. Now they are paying for it with problems and contradictions, - believes the Italian minister.

Antonio Tajani also expressed hope that after the attempted coup d'état, Ukraine's counteroffensive will go even faster, and Ukrainians will restore their independence.

Yeah had it turned into a battle for Moscow the war in Ukraine probably would have ended in a couple of months. However, this attempted coup was another nail in the coffin for Russia. None of the Elites in Russia will sleep well, all will be plotting and planning fearing what could come. Had Putin fell many of his lackeys would have been rounded up. Many people who showed support for the goblin will be fearing reprisals, either they flee russia or they plan coups/attacks on the state. Fear, anxiety and paranoia will be rampant in Moscow.

All in all its better this happened for Ukraine, then it not to have happened. The entire Russian political system is compromised and the army is in dire straights.

If i were to speculate this event will have created fractures across the entire state. Going forward expect more crazy things to happen.

The beauty of the Russian failure is that no one in Russia wants to recognise it, that means their future will be continued failure. In essence they are cursed.

3 day war to denazify Ukraine, actually had Russian wagner Nazi's marching on moscow itself, absolutely hilarious turn of events. And while the goblin fed Russia with hope of something different to the failure under Putin, he ended up selling everyone out who supported him. Russians continue to take it hard.

So, after all of this, what can we say about what Wagner (pregozin) wanted, why they started a coup, what they achieved, why he left?

Any idea?

Because they were about to be disbanded and they wanted to negotiate a deal to get into a legal framework somehow. And they got what they wished for. Russia made a law to recruit criminals which makes up a big portion of Wagner. This will probably be at the cost of Prigozin getting crossed over at some point in time while the rest of them still being useful for Russia and for themselves. Prigozin is an old man, he had his good days.

the way his forces were allowed to get so close to moscow suggests that higher ups were allowing it. If i had to guess he was just a useful idiot used by russian deep state actors to pressure Putin and his associates. I suspect it will take a week or two before we realise what happened behind the scenes.

Remember this losing war turned into something else a long time ago, it turned into primarly about keeping Putin in power. Everyone can see its a lost war and the billionaires are losing money and fearing things can get far worse. for putin he has no choice but to maintain the war.

I suspect most sane russians understand that this is another afghanistan situation, the longer it goes on the more they fail. they need it to end as soon as possible, but Putin cannot look a loser or hes done.

Pregozin wanted a nice sum for his retirement, he lied to public about not recieving ammo, he lied to his boys about staging the coup and probably promised them lucrative positions later.
Now they will be part of regular army, get treated like shit and be cannon fodder while pregozin will enjoy his time in belarus or wherever he his gonna hide.
Just your usual russian money grab games.

Meanwhile putin looks like a cuck, no trace left of that hardcore fsb guy image he one held among his cheerleaders.

Seems to me that no agreement was reached, merely the Russian state allowing Prigozhin to get close to Moscow before revealing to him that they hold all the cards. It's the only reason I can think of for him standing down, he suddenly realized he was badly outmatched and was being played.

I dont think he was played but the juice wasnt worth the squeeze after all, with these vendetta threats.

It's not a rumor, I saw the video. It was closer to slitting the throat of the Wagner fighter rather than cutting his head off, but yea. And this was already after Putin declared amnesty for Wagner fighters. Russia is a failed state of rival warlords.
