What happens to Wagner? What will Putin do next? And how will it affect war in Ukraine? Key questions answered.

The article raises most of the questions we were already asking ourselves, giving some background, but obviously no answers…

  • What will Putin do? The whole situation makes him look week, will he lash out to show strength? Purge annyone seen as not supportive enough during the whole situation?

  • What will Prigozhin do? It would look out of character for him to just leave in silence?

  • Will Russian troops want to fight alongside Wagner troops after this? Will Wagner troops accept now to be integrated with the Russian army?

    Good luck with that… I recommend to stay ground-floor and to avoid tea and guys with umbrellas?

    But I wonder what will happen to Shoigu. I mean, getting rid of him wasn’t part of the Putin/Prigozhin deal, but wasn’t it a huge failure on his part to let Prigozhin proceed that far? Wouldn’t Putin have to sack him for that, even if that looks like giving in to Prigozhins demands?

      He might not need to last that long. Yesterday’s circus happened because there was already blood in the water, and now there’s more blood than water. Every single shark and wannabe shark in Russia is probably circling around Putin waiting for the first opening.
