“It is hard to imagine that Putin will accept this attack on his leadership without repercussions of some kind – going after and trying to kill Prigozhin,” says former US Ambassador to NATO Kurt Volker, adding that both Putin and Prigozhin want to be seen as the saviors of Russia.

@kvolker The Russian "mutiny" is similar in some ways to the Titan submersible disaster. Putin is unable to resist exploring the nostalgic abyss that is Russia's imperial past, but his regime has design flaws and maybe cracks, so Putin's era could end with a sudden catastrophic implosion.

@kvolker Terrorist ruzzia planted bombs around the largest nuclear plant but the level coverage/air time is nonexistent compare to the quasi coup…ruZZia bombed the dam with no Intl condemnations, they are embolden and will bomb the plant, report on that.

@kvolker Prigozhin has no reason to fear because Wagner still exists as an organization.

@kvolker When people realise all the **** CNN and you have been pumping out over the years your retirement will be somewhat reclusive.

@kvolker Sure...of course I believe you. Because you never tell the truth.

@kvolker

@kvolker You are pathetic you did not even got the audacity to ask ur lunatic idiot guest Barack Obama any meaningful question,but u kept him shitting out of his mouth with lies. U & ur fake news CNN are a cancer & it’s disgusting to see idiots people still watching shitty news as CNN.

@kvolker Hopefully they’ll both take each other out in simultaneous twin attacks. Putin by cocktail and Prigozhin by an unscheduled short flight.

@kvolker THIS is the out of your box

@kvolker This assumes that Prigozhin's "coup" attempt was authentic and not some sort of psyop. Can we really make that assumption?
