| Zkuq said: I'd just like to point out that if he manages to take down the command of the armed forces of Russia, Putin has little to keep real power. Unless Putin trusts him (which he doesn't seem to), this might as well be a direct attack against Putin. My impression is that Putin is popular enough that directly opposing him wouldn't be smart, so he's attacking someone much less popular instead. |
Issue with Prigozhin is that basically everyone dislikes him who has any real power, Lol. Gerasimov, Shoigu, Russian Regional Leaders, FSB, Kadyrov. Even that shit snivelling coward, Girkin. And now even Surovikin is telling Prigozhin to stop who was until recently siding with him against the Russian MoD.
Remains to be seen how many regular soldiers he could get on his side, but Prigozhin is hated by a lot of people with power. I don't think this will last long if it's legit, but hey it will provide a large distraction (which benefits Ukraine), it'll destroy Wagner and remove more Russian troops (which benefits Ukraine) and severely weaken Putin's political position (which benefits Ukraine).
So I hope they kill each other.
