PMC Wagner Betrayal Saga Continues….Meetings in the Kremlin and More

How is Mr. Prigozhin not jailed? Who is PMC Wagner and Yevgeny Prigozhin? What will happen to PMC Wagner and Mr. Prigozhin? How does this impact Putin’s power?

In last week’s debut publication of “Barbershop Whispers….Russia” I discussed the initial fallout of the evolving Prigozhin Revolt. This issue follows up on this event as it continues to unfold. Much of what happens in the aftermath of the Wagner Revolt, together with the success or failure of the Ukrainian counter-offensive, will have a material impact on Putin’s ability to remain in power.

In this week’s issue, we will discuss how a mercenary leader who led a revolt against the Ministry of Defense, resulting in the death of 13 regular Army troops, is then invited to the Kremlin for talks rather than being jailed or killed.
