one more time: progozhin's that long talk
it was made probably within a day before he made the big move
its "part 1" was 30+ minutes long
no part x (x>1) has come out yet, if it will ever be heard by the outside
he had stated at least a few new points which he had never mentioned before
it is a defining talk
for at least 5 months, he had been generally discrediting the russian system, from its military components, to its civil components, to its high level officials ...
a few of bigger examples:
1. repeatedly saying russian troops are impotent. once he said that if wagner pulls out, the russian army will be pushed back to the russian border ...
2. wagner is the world's best fighting foce, and the ukrainians troops he had been facing were pretty good
3. the highest mark had given to any russian unit he had ever worked with was a 4, while saying only very selected units were good enough
4. keep using st. petersburgh's mayor as a "shining" example of russian corruption at high level
collectively, he essentially pointed to putin's mismanagement of russia, though he had never literally said it
consistently he has been saying the russian system is rotten to its core, needs to be changed, and he is the man who can determine what needs to be done
he kept saying wagner was the model or envy for russian military
for multiple times he essentially call good russian soldiers to join wagner
it has been more than a month that wagner hasn't been a part of the war
russian troops are generally doing fine, perhaps most of them are already deployed not too far from the front lines, especially from the bakhmut area to the whole zaporozhia region
ukrainian counter offensive was significantly down in intensity for a few days, which could last for some time
(but he could change that, or, to make ukrainians to fix russian troops already deployed while he is doing his very special operation0
wagner has been recuperated or recovered well, and has replenished its manpower ....
that is to say: the far rear in the russia's south didn't have many troops even though shoigu and gerasimov were supposed to be there
timing
good!
so, he could wait no longer to make the big move
he expected many russian soldiers to be swayed to his side ... resulting in his control of most of the russian military forces
he said that his goal was to remove the top two officials
but if he realized his plan, he would definitely push putin aside as yeltsin did to the previous or the last other
