Looks like Prigozhin hit the brakes?
What happens to him now? Jail... death? No way he can step back and things go back to the way they were.

This kind of smart, walkable, mixed-use urbanism is illegal to build in many American cities.

- Attack Putin, march all the way up to Moscow, be accompanied by local russian forces and say "I think I changed my mind"... Really?drgs
- Skepticism is a must in this day and age. Consider all the "experts" that where so certain on the outcome of the 24hr coup.IRNlun6

New theory just dropped
https://twitter.com/vtchakarova/…
This is not a coup by Prigozhin. This is an inner war between the St Petersburg gang of Putin and the Moscow gang of Gerasimov and Shoigu. This is the beginning of Putin‘s election campaign to become reelected on March 17, 2024. His lapdog Prigozhin is masquerading a coup to put the blame on Gerasimov and Shoigu for losing the war against Ukraine. Prigozhin can always be scapegoated if he fails like this has happened in the past.
- she's actually is really good source on Russian politicsIRNlun6
- She even posted it yesterdaydrgs
- I think she is giving these goonies too much credit. It’s all just a shit show.inv
- That could be plausible but that would assume the elections are honest. And they're not.Hayoth
- Curious what putopian had to say about this??Hayoth
- Hayoth, that's a good and obvious point I forget. Elections would be irrelevant to a man him. Seems it may be more like managing and maintaining his power.IRNlun6

Rumors that Prigozhin has been promised presidency of Belarus
Anyway, I feel like I watched a super exciting TV show and they've butchered the finale
There is maybe a small chance that this is not the end. Interesting times ahead
- This was about as satisfying at the GoT finale.
About as pointless, too.Continuity - You'll have to wait for next seasondmay

Russia has completed preparations for the bombing of the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Station. The plan has already been drawn up and approved, Ukraine’s intelligence reported.

So at the end some crazy billionaire mercenary captured a bunch of tactical nukes that he can launch on his own without needing any codes?
hmmmm

"Ukraine's Zelensky says there will not be a presidential election in the country before the end of the war."

"A source close to the leadership of the Mogilev region in Belarus confirmed that the authorities had been instructed to build a camp for PMCs in the region and that the Wagner mercenaries will be sent to Belarus"
- all a ploy to maneuver Wagner to open a new front while not directly drawing Belarus into the war? seems convoluted but who fucking knows_niko
- ^ Sadly, Occam's Razor has rarely applied, as far as Russia and its prosecution of this war are concerned. So, you may be right.Continuity

Wake me when this is over. So far, it just seems like bs posturing - no really conflict, just YouTube videos and propaganda.
How can anyone really have any idea what is 'real'.

In a very few short years – the corporate wars begin.
It won't be America that starts this, it'll be Russia, and the rest of the world will need to adapt.

- @halliburtoin / blackwater were acting in the service of a state, at least. Apparently Gazprom has its own private militia. It's that sort of thing I mean.Nairn
- I mean, if Apple decided to get into the military business all of a sudden, imagine how they could use the GDP equivalent of France they have in reserve?Nairn
- They don't need to secure a nation, they outsource the securing of their supply-chain, they have liteal trillions to call upon for a targetted strike. Or Ten.Nairn

"The Wall Street Journal reports that Wagner Group leader Prigozhin had a plan to capture Russia's Defence Minister and a senior general, but had to launch the plot prematurely after the FSB intelligence agency became aware of it."
