Roxanne Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 We’re going to need a bigger window Wagner chief vows to topple Russian military leaders Yevgeny Prigozhin’s declared move against the Russian military leadership is "almost certainly an attempted coup", the former US Ambassador to Ukraine Bill Taylor has told the BBC. “This is serious for Putin. The Russians are taking this very seriously, and it sounds like they should.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They honestly look like they're going for Moscow. Putin is probably building a bunker within his bunker. Would Prig carry on in Ukraine if he deposes Putin?

Albert Tatlock Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 This could have been an opportunity for Putin to get out of the Ukraine war...blaming the top brass of its military for giving him false information on Ukraine...akin to the WMD bullplop that has kept Tony Bliar out of jail. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he just wants power and wealth then probably not. If, however, he sees the value in Ukraine's resources then he might just keep going.

What kept Blair out of jail was that the body with the jurisdiction to put him in jail didn't exist. It existed before the Iraq war, and then in a different form after, but not during. Which is awfully convenient if you want to avoid going to jail for the Iraq war. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s been looking for an excuse to get out for a while IMO, and he’s certainly Got a whopper of an excuse now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roxanne Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Whatever the reason and whatever the outcome, for now, I’m just cheered that Putin has more to think about than dropping nukes. It’s certainly an interesting development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He now appears to think the invasion was a massive error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
