Chechen leader offers to help put down Wagner mutiny
Reuters ^ | 6/24/2023

Posted on 06/24/2023 8:34:38 AM PDT by Right Wing Vegan

Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov said on Saturday his forces were ready to help put down a mutiny by Wagner mercenary chief Yevgeny Prigozhin and to use harsh methods if necessary.

Kadyrov in a statement posted on Telegram called Prigozhin's behaviour "a knife in the back" and called on Russian soldiers not to give in to any "provocations."

He said that Chechen units were moving towards the "zones of tension" and would act to "preserve Russia's units and defend its statehood".

“Chechen leader offers to help put down Wagner mutiny”

Sounds like this ‘coup’ didn’t do its homework first. More of a replay of Jan 6th.

They’ve found unexploded pipe-bombs left by a shadowy figure at the HQ of Putin’s United Party

With civil war at home and uncertainty of resupply from home I think many Rusdian troops will skedaddle from Ukraine, saying ‘let’s call it a draw and bye bye’ rather than stay and die for Putin’s invasion. Time will tell. Will be an interesting next week or so. Maybe much less. Again, what help are those nukes Putin has nominal control over, providing him in this new internal conflict? Could he threaten the West with them (again) to make them come help him put down his homegrown uprising? Would Biden do so if offered rewards? Or is out CIA currently going full blast supporting Wagner here, to get the Russians out of Ukraine?

Look at how our enemies in the West are taking advantage of this situation. How many insinuations, how many lies, how many false appeals that frighten our citizens and create the danger of a destabilizing situation are being used. These are the expected consequences of Prigozhin's treacherous march, Kadyrov wrote."

It’s all scripted. As soon as Ukraine starts attacking the eastern defensive positions, all the sudden Wagner will be back out there.

Yep, if Wagner winds up having to fight the Chechens, they’ll wish they had stayed in the prisons.

Why do Kadyrov’s Chechen fighters support Putin so strongly? Didnt Putin hammer the Chechen uprising by razing Grozny, etc?

Chechnya gulags are perfect for agents of the globohomo conspiracy to destabilize Russia.

Putin addressed their concerns.

Or, an unreleased video of Ukraine shooting down a helicopter was released.

I have a very strong feeling that Russia’s about to attack on all fronts with Wagner and the others, especially if Ukraine commits a large force to attacking a defensive line. This is for life and death, after all. Prigozhin knows he will suffer the same fate as Putin if they lose. Plus Russia will be split into pieces and sold to Blackrock.

thanks for your interesting thoughts

yes the next few days to week will tell us a lot

I believe it is vital for Ukraine to push out all the russians from their land, the first priority among many important priorities

In addition, the only video I’ve seen of the helicopter shot down is during the day.

Well, Wagner moved its convoy at 1AM local time and the distance was about 60 miles. People aren’t thinking about this.

Plus, we’re 3 weeks away from the NATO meeting. Putin’s doing something and no one’s willing to consider it.
