“So zelensky is winning now?”

Seems like it. We may be at the end game as far as Ukraine is concerned. No matter how the Prigozhin thing turns out, Russia has taken a massive hit.

No matter how the Prigozhin thing turns out, Russia has taken a massive hit.

All wars have an element of propaganda. People who should know better buy into whatever that they want to believe immediately. Whatever has actually taken place is likely being completely misconstrued by both sides and is being used to hide something else.

The truth is typically less entertaining than this type of nonsense, but the chances that “Russia has taken a massive hit” are incredibly low. The Ukrainian counteroffensive thus far has been a complete multi-billion-dollar flop and actually worse. So now this ridiculous nonsense comes up.

Who knows what the Russians have under their hat, obviously someone is going to be taking a fall, and it is very unlikely to be Putin. We have all sorts of talk and almost no actual evidence which is the hallmark of propaganda. It just keeps getting thicker all the time from both sides. Obviously, instead of getting credit for whatever they have accomplished the Wagner Group is going to now end up with a change in leadership and an even more tarnished image.
