Is Attempted Coup Underway In Russia ? by Melezenawii: 10:44pm On Jun 23, 2023
General "Armageddon" Surovikin published a video calling Wagner to "obey the Supreme Commander".

"I have just returned by the order of the Ministry of Defence from the zero line, where our forces, our commanders, our soldiers, volunteers carry out the objective, fighting the superior enemy forces to death, take casualties, but stand on their positions.

I appeal to the leadership, commanders and fighters of PMC Wagner: Together with you, we walked a difficult path. Together with you, we fought, we took risks, we took losses, but overcome together. We are of the same blood. We are warriors.

I call on you to stop. The enemy is waiting for our internal political situation to aggravate. We shouldn’t play into the enemy’s hand in this difficult time for the country."

It needs to be done before it’s too late: to obey the will and order of the people-elected President of the Russian Federation. Stop the columns, and return them to their permanent positions and places of concentration.

To solve all problems with civil means only under the leadership of the Supreme Commander of the Russian Armed Forces.

He is being slowly joined by other high-ranking commanders of the Russian army in similar videos.

What is it in his statement that suggests an "attempted coup"?

Probably not.

Wagner is not as strong as the might of the Russian Army.

If USA really want to destabilise Russia I bet this would be it best opportunity ever. Something in me believe this could be a set up Wagner cannot both fight Russia and nato backed Ukraine. Would Ukraine trust Wagner to work with it time would tell.

if he actually means it, then that's suicide mission. Do you know thousands he commanded to their death in bahkmut? His men will take him down first.

Why is this man taken such a risk? It will likely end up very bad for him

I don't know what exactly is happening in Russia or what they are planning, it could be a decoy just to keep the medias busy so they can slaughter the rest of Ukrainians while they pretend in the eyes of the media to be fighting. Wagner group leader released a footage of their base that was attacked by the Russia defense ministry last time and threatened the hell out of the leaders of the ministry. But who knows. I don't trust these guys. In whatever they do they should consider leaving Ukraine and let the poor Ukrainians breath. E don do alreeady.

The problem with the Wagner boss is that he talks too much.
If he was smart, he would have secretly contact the CIA to use their assets to help him seize power.
Even those who wants Putin gone don't trust Prigozin because he could read out their names in one
of his rants.

Russian military might is overrated. Remove nukes, even India would be more than a match for the Russian army.This is going to be the real test of Putin's popularity and acceptance. The coming days are certainly going to be full of intrigues.

This is a pretext by the Russian federation to pull out of Ukraine.

The war is telling heavily on their economy, military stockpiles and manpower while on the other hand their arch enemy US is growing stronger and they have their old foes Japan and Germany which has just woken up from their post world war 2 slumber and increased military budgets by 100%

Meanwhile their frenemy China is at their door step growing stronger and stronger. While they maintain good relationship for now they still have their eyes on each other.

They need to find a good excuse to get out of Ukraine before its late and this is it
