    Well..well... if it helps bring a cessation of hostilities and a full withdrawal of Russian forces from the Ukraine and the Crimea, I all for it.
    Pity that, ultimately, some people have got to die to achieve peace.

    I would suggest to the Wagner boss to stay away from high rise buildings....

    Somehow I don't think all this will just disappear.
    So, Wagner were doing a lot of the killing in Ukraine for Russia then the Russian military killed a lot of Wagner soldiers so Prigozhin staged a "mutiny" then turned his men around and has agreed to go to Belarus for fear of high buildings as Dom hinted at.
    How many Russian soldiers had decided to jump ship and join Wagner?
    What's next?

    From https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/world-europe-66006142https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/world-europe-66006142

    "We have more comments from US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who has been speaking to various US media outlets - including CNN, ABC, and the BBC's US news partner, CBS.

    He has told ABC's This Week Putin's decision to invade Ukraine has created chaos in his own country.

    "If you put this in context 16 months ago, Putin was on the doorstep of Kyiv in Ukraine, looking to take the city in a matter of days, erase the country from the map.

    "Now, he's had to defend Moscow, Russia's capital, against a mercenary of his own making," Blinken said.

    "So, I think this is clearly - we see cracks emerging. Where they go, if anywhere, when they get there, very hard to say. I don't want to speculate on it," he says."

    Putin's successor is suppose to be more crazier, I just hope it's resolved soon.
    Or it could be the hot dog salesman.
    Yevgeny Prigozhin
