Hi Penny,

This video contains Scott Ritter’s take on this Prigozhin – Shoigu – Putin situation. Essentially, he’s not certain what is happening. He suggests we should stay calm and eventually there will be a resolution. Goes from about the 30 min. to the 50 min. mark.

Penny.
The theory you advanced in the comment is possible but I don’t think that the Ukrainians are in any condition to mount a large scale military incursion into Mother Russia. They could try small commando operations or some kind of intelligence folly with a dirty bomb but that would not provide the reasoning for any Russian massive military movement.
Progozhin and Putin had a remarkably public feud over artillery support a while ago, but they seemed to patch that up suspiciously quickly and the Wagner forces soon went on to the final triumphant storming of Bakmut. Many felt the ‘feud’ was a psy-op intended to fool the Ukrainians into lowering their guard.
It is very difficult for me to visualize a sneak knife in the back attack by the regular army against the Wagner forces.
Currently all of Wagner has been re-located to the northern front where they are part of a massive Russian army concentration protecting the Belgograd region. Some believe they are on the verge of a great Russian push towards Kharkiv.
Could it be that this current media confrontation is meant to excite the Ukrainians and the Pentagon and provide cover for the launch of such an operation? Scott Ritter seems to think that Progozhin and Putin are tight.
Oh well, I wont be the first amateur armchair prognosticator to make a fool of himself with baseless pontifications from thousands of miles and a cultural universe away from developments.

throwing this out there!
Is it possible the Russians have caught wind of an attack directed their way? And their upping the military reaction, allegedly to this Wagner situation, when really they have intel on some move or strike within Russian territory? That they may be trying to get ahead of?
It’s plausible.
Thoughts, anyone?
