Meduza is currently the only major independent Russian news organisation reporting on the war in Ukraine
We are certain that a solution worthy of the age-old wisdom of the Russian people will be found in the near future.
A window?
I kinda hope this turns into a FAFO situation for Putin but a mercenary group doing the teaching is not exactly comforting.
Does anyone know what the chances are of Wagner succeeding? Russian’s military has been thinned out greatly because of the war so a concentrad attack behind the main front-lines should be effective. Assuming Wagner has access to Russian army intelligence. This Chechen warband seems like a valid thread though but they also look like the next group to try to grab power…if they crush Wagner, that would be a display of strength that could Putin in a corner as well.
The Hypermind prediction market currently estimates the chances of Putin losing power by the end of the year at 40%. Hypermind is usually a pretty good source, and I’d say this estimate is fairly reasonable (a bit high maybe?).
Putin (and/or his plane) has left Moscow. Hmmmm
Pretty. Crazy. And Latvia locking the border. No refugees from Russia allowed there.
Is this going to be massive, or just a tiny blip.
