Man. Wow just wow. Could see that the Wagner group would have eventually come to a head with RUS mod, but did not foresee a full coup style trajectory. But it is Russia, so, I guess it's not too far out of the realm of precedent.
I think the funny thing is watching the GD vatniks still spouting the same empty BS in the face of reality. Just shows how one note the low hanging fruit is. |

Ukraine should probably be cheering for Putin. I don’t think so. If wagner wins and prigozhin takes power, he will have to focus on keeping it, that means pulling out of Ukraine and consolidating domestic political power and building alliances. |

Originally Posted By AeroEngineer: Here’s my take on it: the events that are going on right now have a 0% chance of improving any of Russia’s capabilities on the front lines with Ukraine in the near term. However, what’s going down has significant chances of deteriorating Russia’s capability or willingness to fight in Ukraine in the next few days. I think that it’s probably a smart call by Ukraine to use a few days to regroup and assess the situation and plan. Who knows you may start seeing movement of troops back towards Crimea or Rostov, at least in certain units, and such a thing might naturally open a path for Ukraine to move forward. I guess the way I see it, there’s no real advantage for Ukraine attacking immediately, however, there could be a huge advantage opening up in the next 48 to 72 hours View Quote Yup. Even confused and disheartened RU troops will fight back if attacked. Let them sit and simmer since things are NOT getting better in Russia. At the very least, reinforcements and supplies are being diverted from the Ukraine front. In a few days when supplies are critical they may be easier to roll, even if they dont mutiny and head towards Moscow, which is actually possible. If your enemy is busy fighting himself, dont attack and interrupt them. |

Russian TG
Of the interesting things that we noticed - so far there has not been a single video with columns of heavy equipment of the Ministry of Defense - tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, artillery and others. All that can be observed over the past day is the relatively light equipment of the units of the Russian Guard, in the face of armored vehicles BTR-80 and BTR-82A, as well as various armored vehicles, such as Tigers, Uralov-VV, Patrols. From the army, only the aviation of the Russian Aerospace Forces, represented by Ka-52 helicopters and Su-34 bombers, demonstrated attempts to strike at Wagner PMC columns. However, there are certain difficulties with this, both due to the fact that Prigozhin’s troops have their own anti-aircraft systems, such as the Pantsir-S1 air defense missile system or the Strela-10 air defense system, and because of the fast movement speed of PMC columns mixed with civilians. In turn, the Wagners have a certain amount of heavy armored vehicles, in the form of T-72B3 tanks, BMP-2 and BMP-3 infantry fighting vehicles, as well as BTR-82A armored personnel carriers and a large number of light vehicles. Thus, in the event of a direct collision between the Wagner PMC and the checkpoints of the National Guard and the police set up in their path (which I would not like very much), the advantage will not be with the state security forces.

View Quote Prigozhin has said the war on Ukraine was based on lies and was never necessary. I dont see him or any "new" leader eager to continue this disaster. I think even Putin would use this as an excuse to pull out from Ukraine, if he could. Worst case scenario (some new leader takes over and continues the war in Ukraine) Russia will still be weaker w/o Wagner and most likely will benefit Ukraine. |
