    Actually I’m being unfair, it’s been packaged incredibly well.

    This all sounds pretty mental.

    Funny if was all some massive rope-a-dope type manoeuvre to try and draw a major Ukrainian offensive.

    Almost:



    Wagner is in control of way more powerful anti air capabilities than manpads.

    The coup will just put Bladimir Butin on the throne and it will be business as usual.

    Anyway, sounds like Baldimir's Boys are rolling in to Red Square over the weekend.

    Slapheadovich and his Chechen mad lads are crazy if they think he's going to be in charge, is it not more likely that he's simply been paid off and switched sides to whichever waxwork will take over from Putin?

    He's easily done enough to get Novichok'd already, so I don't see the point in backing off now. It would have been far quicker to die in the inevitable slaughter they would have faced.

    For the best anyway. For all the 'Putin bad, everything else good' simpletons, we really didn't want this psychopath ending up with his finger on the nuke button.

    Russian opposition outlet Verstka reported on June 26 that Belarusian authorities are constructing several new camps to house the Wagner Group fighters in Belarus and that the construction of a 24,000 square kilometer base for 8,000 Wagner Group fighters is already underway in Asipovichy, Mogilev Oblast.
    Lukashenko is going to look a right twat when Wagner stage a coup in Belarus. Then they can invade Kyiv from the north.

    This is about the most reasonable explanation for whatever went down the other day.

    What difference is it gonna make for the cleanup, really?



    If it gets them out of their territory faster it might even have a negative effect in total.

    Have the Russians lost the several hundred thousand troops it would require for them to give up? If not then they'll keep grinding away.

    Quarter of a million killed or wounded, according to the UK and Ukraine estimates. 180k from the more modest yanks.

    Ukraine are down 130,000 so .... probably worth plodding on.

    Buddying back up to him might've been his only chance. You can run from Putin but, sooner or later, you've got to go to Zizi's.

    Putin had every right to get him arrested and imprisoned, even executed, for treason. But no he’s Stalin to the end, brazenly disappearing people in broad daylight.

    However I’m not sure “offing Russian army generals in Russian civilian airspace in 2023” was in the playbook when he marched on Kyiv last February.

    It wasn't, but I feel compelled to point out that we are very much still in a situation of aggression, which some might even go so far as to describe as a war.
