    I call bs. This guy is a useful idiot for Putin. Use him to blame the failed invasion on the Russian MoD.

      It’s pretty obvious that Putins bitch with its ragtag team of prisoners turned soldiers has no chance of claiming any real power in Russia. Even Russian peasants aren’t that dumb.

      Wagner will take the fall and give Putin an out. Which isn’t the worst possible outcome I guess.

      Maybe. No matter who loses this is probably going to end up being a huge boon for Ukraine.
