Putin’s second address. The results of the mutiny and the future of Prigozhin
By Rostislav Ishchenko
Unfortunately, there is always a high percentage of people in society who are not able to admit their mistakes and are ready to rewrite reality for themselves, not noticing the absurdity of the world they create in their imagination.
Prigozhin’s advertising was aimed at people who were frankly stupid, who did not notice the… Continue reading

Notes from Lukashenko and the Result of the Rebellion

First from Donbass Devushka: Lukashenko says:
Alexander Lukashenko said that an important role in the negotiations with Prigozhin was played by Deputy Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation Yevkurov and… Continue reading

President Putin: Address to citizens of Russia
http://en.kremlin.ru/events/president/news/71528
Friends,
Today, I am addressing the citizens of Russia once again. Thank you for your restraint, cohesion and patriotism. This civic solidarity shows that any blackmail, any attempt to stage domestic turmoil is doomed to fail.
I will repeat – society and the executive and legislative branches of government at all levels displayed high consolidation. Public organisations, religious denominations, the leading political parties and actually all of Russian society held a firm line, taking an explicit… Continue reading

By Pepe Escobar and first posted at Strategic Culture

When Modi visited the White House …
Modi was treated with almost excessive pomp and circumstance. There are hundreds of photos everywhere, every piece of White House Chef vegetarian plates photographed with breathless descriptions of things like compressed watermelon and mushrooms on saffron risotto, but very little substance.

The Prigogine Mutiny: Intermediate finish
By Rostislav Ishchenko
I didn’t think it would end so quickly. However, Prigozhin’s sudden “complaisance” indicates that far from stupid people were going to become the beneficiaries of this rebellion. As well as the fact that they still have hope (and perhaps they are even sure) that responsibility will be avoided. After all, the formal exposure did not occur.
Why… Continue reading

Catastrophe Looms in the Wake of Delusions: The Delusional World Versus the Real World
With gratitude to Batiushka, our writer
1. The Delusional World
a. Prigozhin
On 23 and 24 June in Russia the highly ambitious and foul-mouthed oligarch, Evgeny Prigozhin, decided that he should take control of the Russian Ministry of Defence. Thus he created a mutiny, centred in the provincial southern city of Rostov, which is the headquarters of… Continue reading

Prigozhin & PMC Wagner’s Armed Mutiny – President Putin’s speech and transcript

An armed Wagner (or part of it) convoyed to Rostov-on-Don, and Prigozhin directly challenged the Russian senior military leaders, Shoigu and Gerasimov. This was shortly after… Continue reading
