What was labeled a “revolt” and a “mutiny” wasn’t. It was a protest against Putin’s Double Cross and the broken promise by a private and independent group of mercenaries he hired. They were being hijacked into Vlad’s Army and at a far, far cheaper rate than previously negotiated. Vlad the Don finally reminded them it was an offer they couldn’t refuse when he reminded them ” we have your families”!
“Sixteen months ago, Russian forces were . . . thinking they would erase Ukraine from the map as an independent country,” Blinken said. “Now, over the weekend they’ve had to defend Moscow, Russia’s capital, against mercenaries of Putin’s own making. . . It was a direct challenge to Putin’s authority. . . It shows real cracks.”
