"A key thing to remember
The ongoing situation in #Russia is mostly, almost entirely, reported on by Russian sources. Non-credible Telegram and other social media accounts are flooding the infosphere with unconfirmed statements, describing situations and actions without even basic evidence, with the majority basing its reports on nothing."

But while #Prigozhn himself was nothing but a sorry clown with absolutly no power and (almost) no friends in russian politics, should the fact that a significant part of the russian public is cheering to Nazis & war criminals scare just the shit out of us.
This really is something you can't fix by sending one guy into exile.
"Stoppt nun die #Nationalgarde die revolutionierenden #Wagner-Söldner, dann dürfte damit die Position von #Putin gestärkt werden. Schließlich würde die ihm unterstellte Streitkraft #Prigoschin [ #Prigozhn ] aufhalten – und nicht die reguläre Armee von #Schoigu. Putin würde damit demonstrieren, dass er die Macht in #Russland in den Händen hält."

"The grim reality is that #Putin’s most dangerous potential opposition today comes not from the pro-western liberals but from the nationalist right."
Unclear situation in #Russia as of now ( #Wagner / #Prigozhn / #Rostov ) but I suspect the power of the ultra-nationalist will eventually fade from now on.
But the system there is in deep trouble as it has no more friends within the society.
Still I think the "coup" is staged to solve some urgent worries.

Listen closely to what this expert (from 8:33) has to say about the #Wagner / #Prigozhn / #Putin / #Russia - Situation:
Fighters from Wagner who did serve their time in the war in #Ukraine will now (most likely) be arrested & send back to fight there (instead of beeing free).
Exactly the kind of "catch22" shit war ALWAYS brings.
