Mercenaries without a leader , what could possibly go wrong
blyat, time for me, Ruskvy Ryan to step up and take the lead.
Savink Ruskvy Ryan, in theaters next fall
“Next fall” as in next autumn, right? Not next fall like “fall in a plane crash?” Right??
Uh, yes comrade, of course. You are most honored hero. Please, come with me to 16th floor balcony.
Oh, that’s very high. The view must be bolshoy!
For some reason your comment made me think of this game quote…
“There must always be a Lich King.”
This is almost a literal COD plot unfolding.Reality is stranger than fiction.
Get us up to speed: how does it end?
Yea that seems like a great way to really have all the Wagner soldiers turn on Russia. They only stopped last time because the boss said to, if he’s gone there’s no one to stop them
There’s also no one to pay them, which is usually fairly important to mercenaries.

I wouldn’t bet on that. The business side of Wagner should be intact. It’s not like Prigz was hand writing checks to his tens of thousands of employees scattered all over Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, and at least 6 more countries on the African Continent.
Wagner PMC is a business, a big one, and that means administrative staff running the day to day of recruiting, hiring, payroll, purchasing, and logistics. Those people weren’t on that plane, or at least not enough of them to make any real difference.
“There’s a lot of talk right now about what the Wagner Group will do. We can tell you one thing. We are getting started, get ready for us,” the soldiers said in a translated video. It is unclear who they were directing their message to.
Damn. Chilling stuff. I’m chilled.
I’m chilled. 🍦

What if he just faked his death? Kremlin gets to look tough and he’s free to walkaway from a losing war.
Didn’t they already start like many years ago?
Good news first the world is in great shape
I’d bark too if I realized I had no bite. Hope they cause some damage before they’re purged.
“In the area of the camp of Private Military Company ‘Wagner,’ in the village of Tsel and in the Osipovichi district, there are currently severe disruptions in the mobile Internet.”
Wagner has just lost their head, I wonder if anyone inside the company is still able to take over, or if the Russian army will just assimilate or disappear them.
The Russian Military won’t be able to “disappear” or assimilate Wagner. The situation on the African Continent entirely prevents it; Wagner needs to be there or a shit ton of $$$ will be lost and Russia cannot use regular / uniformed Russian soldiers for those…activities.
It’s easy to forget because of Prigozhin’s long association with Putin and the War in Ukraine but Wagner has a power base along with income streams that are entirely separate from Russia. They are truly a trans-national Mercenary group.
“The West” may take this opportunity to delete them but that probably wouldn’t happen until after the reaction from Prigozhin’s death has settled down. Wouldn’t want to keep them from Marching on Moscow again after all.
