Loading ...You are Right Fully – Wagner Mercenaries are Taking Rostov on Don
Wagner Mercenaries have taken the streets of Rostov on Don. Looks like a coup to me. Its not the front lines of Ukraine when its the town center in a major Russian City. This is the first photo evidence I have seen that looks credible and suggests trouble is afoot.
Putin just made a speech
I listened . It was translated
He is calling this a grave Mutiny / Treason / Backstabbing
He sounded VERY Shaky to me
He said he will order the Military to defend the Motherland .
Sounds grave
The Military is not stopping the Wagner convoy on it’s way to Moscow !
They are occupying all the Military Facilities in the Cities along the way .
I sincerely believe Putin is in trouble here .
Major Putin speech tonight — PUTIN calls Prigozhin & Wagner Actions Mutiny and Treason. Says those responsible will pay a heavy price.
Sounded totally pissed!!
Sounded Very Shaky to me.
Scared !!
Of course hard to tell as I listened to a real time translation and the translator wasn’t really that sharp
O, boy! How is this turn of events even possible!
I’m wondering, does west have fingers in this? How in the world?
This sure will not help Russia against the Ukraine/west
Russia had all cards in it’s hand until this.
This is a coup alright. Imagine, the Russian regular soldiers are not opposed. They are not onside with being sent into the Ukraine meatgrinder and prefer the opposition to remove the Russian Generals who keep promoting the war. Prigozhin therefore has unexpected support from the Russian military itself. Looks like Wagner is securing the arms depots in Southern district as well so they will be well fortified if it comes to an armed internal conflict. Wow….who saw that coming? Did Rome have mercenaries take power at one point in their history as well? Umm, yeah….

The Dominant Theory ( K2 can weigh in on this) is that The Russian Military is presently run by soft leaders and that the hardliners are in support of removing them in a coupe d’etat….The Hard Liners will declare this an all out WAR on NATO…and act accordingly…
Putin himself is not the target…at least he wasn’t until tonite he called this a Treason. he literally could be toast .
This is just a theory …but who knows…too early to tell
The West obviously wanted a Regime Change….Perhaps its the same old…be careful what you wish for
> This is a coup alright. Imagine, the Russian regular soldiers are not opposed.
There is a reason, why they are initially not opposed. First, they are outnumbered who knows how many times, second, it is confusion, and third, lets not escalate just yet, maybe we can work something out.
But this is not good, no matter how you look at it.
Agree Fuly, it looks like the hardliners are going to try to take over. They may succeed. That makes WWIII even more likely in the end. This is essentially a dipute about how the war in Ukraine is being fought and on what terms. Prigozhin is saying he wants to punish the military leadership then get back to the business of protecting Russia. So its a coup against the generals, not the government of Putin.
There is one thing that is OFF which is that this news came after NYSE-close and into the weekend. Therefore makes it potential a Western False Flag.
