The Wagner mutiny of late June is likely one of the more dramatic events of the Russo-Ukrainian war in 2023, and one that caught many observers and the international audience off guard.
Despite being closely watched by people around the world - much about the mutiny remains unknown - from its true purpose to the details of how and why it seemed to suddenly end.
In this episode I look at what we know so far, ask what prospects the attempt had for success, what observations we can tentatively make, and what the impacts going forward might be.
I don’t know about y’all, but I have a lot of questions about “The Wagner mutiny”.
Was it really a Mutiny?
How many troops could the Wagner Group put in the field? 25,000 - 30,000”?
How many troops could Putin put in the field? 1 million -3 million?
Isn’t the president of Belarus, Lukashenko very close buds with Putin?
Why would one of Putin’s close allies give sanctuary to the leader of the mutineers?
Was it a ‘mutiny’ sanctioned by Putin?
Like I said, I have lots of questions.
