[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would anyone take a deal from Putin? Prigozhin Will be dead in two weeks. [/quote]

You must understand he had practically no chance from the beginning. A coup against the established Army, who holds the purse strings? He would have needed other groups to join him, and none did; and someone stole his 48M stash in St Petersburg. Without money, there is no war.

Yes, whatever public or private deal has been offered, he is now at very risk of defenestration, "heart attack" or other accident. Putin will not forget and will not forgive.

Still, this is not yet over. Each Russian side is merely regrouping here. They can't ever trust each other now, and yet they depend on each other to win the war.

It's not a good place to be for Russia.[/quote]

Not sure what his reasoning was.  His statements over the last several months have kind of been all over the place.

That said, yes a paramilitary group can succeed in a coup in a country with a larger army.  If he had the backing of some of the oligarchs, if the military was facing defections, yes it could be done.  Putin isn't assassinating Russian businessmen for nothing.  It is because if they fall out of line he can end up put to pasture.  [/quote]
