Yevgeny Prigozhin, the leader of the Wagner mercenary group, made the announcement minutes after the leader of Belarus announced successful talks with the Wagner boss.
What we’ve learned from this whole affair is that Russian army isn’t demoralized and there is no potential for mutiny. The gamble was clearly based on the idea that a significant portion of the army would flip, and that simply didn’t happen. Practically all of the political and military establishment showed unity against the coup. This likely allowed Russia to clean house well which means that this sort of fiasco is even less likely to succeed going forward.
Hope you’re well stocked up on copium, gonna need a lot of it going forward.
Anybody with a couple of brain cells to bang together understands that this allowed Putin to further consolidate power and purge any dissidents. So, yes, Putin is obviously in a stronger position now than he was previously.
First, it’s pretty hilarious that you think wagner is the only effective branch of Russian military. Second, you’re even wrong there because what’s actually happening is that wagner is now integrated directly into the military. You really make a sport out of being confidently wrong. LOL
They are not using the mass wave attack method dating from the first world war like Russia did, no.
They’ve got lots of shiny new kit and well trained troops who actually want to fight these invaders, so they’ll use combined forces attacks, like the Russians were incapable of, following a reconnaissance by fire period to test the defensive line.
I don’t know if you realize how armies work, but they act based on the orders they’re given. Army doesn’t just spring into action all on its own. The army didn’t have orders to escalate the situation because that would be idiotic.
Is Putin coping? One minute it’s an armed mutiny, next they won’t be charged as criminals
Uh oh.

What are you smoking? Do you think this has made Putin look stronger or weaker?

By losing his only actually effective branch of military???
LOL

It was the only effective branch in Ukraine. Russian subs are good, but they are of no use in this war.
Their air force doesn’t seem to have air superiority more than a year later, not very effective.
Ah yes, that’s why Ukrainian offensive has run into a wall for the past 4 weeks. You are very intelligent and rational.

A significant portion of the army stood by and did nothing. That’s not quite flipping, but it’s close
