a very strange day to be sure..something more going on behind the scenes that we don't know about me thinks..but now the Russian population knows the feeling of fear and confusion..good..and they now know their fearless leader is not really so fearless..Putin ran like a scared dog..his army let priggy's boys march right on in..btw, Prigoshin will probaly die from a sever case of 'indigestion' real soon..
He should be careful what he eats at Lukashenko's.
Maybe that's why the MoD will offer contracts to the Wagner crowd; so they'll no longer be under Prig's command. They'll be following Moscow's orders. Their leader will have been rendered superfluous, if they don't mind signing on with Shoigu. They might not be interested in doing that, though. Or some of them might not. That would be the same MoD that failed to provide them with enough weapons earlier in the war.
"Prigozhin couldn’t get the Russian Army to come over as expected. He folded his hand. FSB will eventually detain him for investigation. Then he will be murdered in the coming 90 days. Putin immeasurably weakened. Makes him very desperate. Dangerous." Barry R McCaffrey
So Wagner soldiers can join up with the Russian military. Pay difference aside, this seems a poor option for a professional soldier for all sorts of reasons including they were just involved in a coup attempt.
They can go back to their staging grounds in Ukraine and then what? Presumably, there will be no more paychecks from Putin, and their leader has departed to Belarus.
Do they follow him? Head to Africa? What?
