Former Russian commander Igor Girkin has accused Wagner Group leader Yevgeny Prigozhin of "mutiny" for rejecting an order that would require his notorious paramilitary outfit to sign contracts with Russia's Defense Ministry.
"This is an act of mutiny, if you call a spade a spade," Girkin wrote in a Telegram post on Sunday.
The Wagner Group has played a critical role in Russia's efforts to seize the industrial town of Bakhmut in Ukraine's eastern region. Throughout the months-long push to take control of Bakhmut and until the Wagner Group withdrew from the city this month, Prigozhin repeatedly accused Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu of intentionally depriving his fighters of ammunition and support.

Nice try, darlin'.
Yes, she’s a recent vintage well-known propagandist for the UKRAINE PROJECT,
I have no idea what the Russians are up to with Prigozhin, but it’s entertaining.
Too much vodka.
Maybe Musk can hire Wagner to take care of our southern border here.
I like the way you think. :)
May putin and Prigozhin destroy each other
If you stand back and admire the landscape....there’s two wars being conducted...one by the Russian military (Shoigu) and one by Prigozhin’s contracted folks.
There was some point in April where you notice that the contractor folks were demanding military equipment to be handed over to them. I would imagine heartburn came up and someone finally asked Shoigu who was running the war....he or Prigozhin.
Shoigu finally wised-up and gave the contracted guys....a second contract...that you work for Shoigu (not Prigozhin). No idea if this will be accepted.
Makes it curious how Putin handles either Prigozhin or Shoigu now. He needs an end-point where Russia can say it ‘won’, and without this combined force, it probably won’t happen.
Once Wagner soldiers sign a contract with the Defense Ministry Prigozhin loses control, and power.
Leftists and neocons are desperate to believe that a split between Putin and Wagner will win the Biden/Eu/Globo-Homo war.
