Perhaps there was no treason in reality but people paying for a coup were duped. Maybe that 6.2 billion went into Progo’s bank account about 200 miles from Moscow (that could be a new song “Two hundred Miles From Moscow”) and Progo is laughing all the way to Belarus while Blinkin has 6 billion worth of egg on his face. Putin would approve probably.
Honest to goodness, nothing would surprise me. With the cash we’re pumping into this circus, there’s enough for everyone, all three or how ever many sides are being paid off.
