Just saw on the news that Wagner is turning around after Lukashenko got involved?
I saw that as well. Idk, it just seems really unlikely to just back down from a coup because Belarus gets involved…
This feels like wrestling “Kayfabe.” Like, was this just some weird feint by Russia? Try to bait Ukraine into doing something? This would be a new level of gaslighting if so…
So strange.
It could also be a way to shake out any elements of the Russian military or other paramilitary groups that are looking for ways to get out of Ukraine. Like, maybe the attacks on Wagner coming from the Russian army are rogue elements where Wagner is obviously the most effective target for friendly fire.
This.
I had that thought too, some false flag to get Ukraine to launch it’s main counteroffensive early
This has been months in the making. From what I can tell it’s a mix of Russian incompitence in the war effort and the Kremlins attempts to control more of Wagner. I have no idea where this is going or what either side has in mind but it’s definetly motivated by Wagner seeing the Kremlin itself as being the thing holding the war effort back.
Also didnt Lulashenko just jet over to Turkey?
Backing down like this puts a target on their heads. It’s never wise to do something like a coup and not follow through .
Belarus is more likely to side with Wagner over Lukashenko. That clown will be gone the second Putin is.
Well that would be funny
