If they do that, the next warlord to march on Moscow won't stop or take any deals.
In any case, Putin looks very weak now. His armed forces wouldn't or couldn't stop Wagner. He had to send his lackey to broker a deal to save himself. The result of which is that the perpetrators of the armed coup attempt get off without even a slap on the wrist, and likely gained concessions behind the scenes. Looking weak is a dangerous thing for a Russian leader.
i think that this whole thing was a psyop operation of some kind. you know it reminds me when chavez tried his coup the d etat in venezuela. he failed and was just arrested and let go and later on came and imposed communism on his own ppl
something similar is going here, though i must say that the russian govt looks weak in all of this pantomime but the effects where attained? the people seem have to rallied to puton
yeah this whole thing stinks to high heaven. pay attention because everything could make sense down the road...
"And Russian oligarch and mercenary army chief Yevgeny Viktorovich Prigozhin will have to stay away from stairs and windows. These, along with cups of tea, tend to be fatal to anyone who crosses President Vladimir Putin’s will.".
"The danger isn’t over for the Wagner boss, either, experts say.
“Putin doesn’t forgive traitors. Even if Putin says, ‘Prigozhin, you go to Belarus,’ he is still a traitor and I think Putin will never forgive that,” said Jill Dougherty, CNN’s former Moscow bureau chief and a longstanding expert on Russian affairs.
It’s possible we could see Prigozhin “get killed in Belarus,” she added – but it’s a tough dilemma for Moscow because as long as Prigozhin “has some type of support, he is a threat, regardless of where he is.”
Neri, does it sometimes happen that you have your own ideas, I mean sensible ideas, not fantasy, or do you faithfully adopt them from the infallible mass media that always has a monopoly on the truth?

Radionuclide polonium is going to be a rough way to go. Takes weeks. Just ask Litvinenko.
Oh, wait...
