They are all mob bosses who are interested in maintaining their wealth and power, not nuking the world. Prigozhin used to be a fucking caterer FFS. Regardless of what he has saiid in the past, if ā€œending the warā€ allows him to sell himself to the populace and take/maintain power, then I am cautiously optimistic.

Confirmed by nytimes that Prigozhin at least said that.

Lol, no way this was a Putin psyops scheme.

Like how the fuck is this situation teneable? One of these two men have to die afaict. They can no longer exist on the same side in Russia right?

I think about anything is on the table. I mean how the hell are you going to start a coup and march thousands of men on the capital and then decide to turn around because there could be bloodshed??

Oh I donā€™t think this is close to over. If heā€™s actually turning around, itā€™s because something he was relying/hoping on turning his way didnā€™t work out. He has to die. Him just going back to the fields to fight more isnā€™t tenable.

What kind of guarantee could he have possibly gotten? What kind of change could have possibly be promised? Like, money or a nuke in the theater? What the fuck?

Apparently Ukraine has crossed the Dnipro near Kherson.

At this point Putinā€™s as likely to use it on Prigozhin and Wagner as he is to use it on Ukrainian forces.

Any chance Wagner could have somehow acquired a tactical nuke themselves and he going to make his own tiny breakaway country or something?
