    Few flowers, one fat military officer, a coffin & thank you for your service.

    Documents shared exclusively with CNN suggest that Russian Gen. Sergey Surovikin was a secret VIP member of the Wagner private military company,” CNN reports.

    “Surovikin has not been seen in public since last Saturday, when he released a video pleading for Wagner boss Yevgeny Prigozhin to stop his insurrection. His whereabouts have since remained unknown.”

  4. You're the one who seem to be out of touch with reality, dear.

    Clearly, Prigo didn't succeed, but it could easily have played out differently.

  8. Yep. And Israel and Azerbaijan are almost allies these days and have opened up a whole new love-fest. Israel wants to partner with them to help keep Iran under control in the region.

    And I guess Azerbaijan has partched things up with Turkey. Azerbaijan, I guess, has a whole pantload of undeveloped natural gas fields and has no way to get it to market without going through Turkey- and Turkey now fancies itself as a regional natural gas hub. All of this came about as a result of Europe trying to find alternatives to Russian gas after the invasion.

    The Russians are always working with Armenia to threaten Azerbaijan so I can see why they might want to be Nato member. Putin being the Nato salesman of the year that he is.

    No it absolutely could not. If you believe 25k would have the remotest chance to turn the entire Russian army, navy, and airforce then you are completely out of touch.

  10. Prigo's troll factory in St. Petersburg being shut down.

    No doubt we will lose at least a couple posters here on the forum.



    ‘Yevgeny Prigozhin will never be discussed again’: Russian media to erase all traces of mutinous warlord

    On Friday, Russia blocked the websites of the Ria Fan, Politics Today, Economy Today, Neva News and People’s News online media outlets, part of a constellation of online sites that pushed out fake news in support of Prigozhin’s agenda.

    The St Petersburg-based outlet Rotunda also reported that Prigozhin’s Internet Research Agency, a troll factory where low-paid interns would try to sow anger and distrust by writing aggressive comments under news and social media posts, had also been closed down.
