If you haven't heard, this story has had a bit of a development since we published. On Wednesday, August 23, the Russian military shot down Yevgeny Prigozhin's plane outside of Moscow. Prigozhin was listed as a passenger and is presumed dead. It's very likely part of Vladimir Putin's effort to reconsolidate power after Prigozhin's mutiny in June. It's a dramatic end to Prigozhin's story, but just another example of how Putin's system works. And how he deals with those that challenge it. Thanks for watching. - Sam
Wagner inviaded Ukraine 2014? What are you smoking? Ukraine army was killing russians citizens from Donbas and other aeras for almost 8 years until russia launched the special operation to stop the crime against humanity in eastern ukraine. Not to mention about US foreign minister and NATO president promised russia that "Not an inch to the east" after germany unification yet NATO expanded the border all the way to Russia. Are you going to talk about it and blame the west and US for current situation? Otherwise, you are a fool for taking money for false information which the brits are good at becuase the brits are nothing but pusxy for being weak and cant fight. Just the talk like yourself.
Watching this 8 hours after news came out about Prigozhin's jet "crashing" is extremely eerie and goes to prove all points in this video. Very interesting...
Not smarter. But ruthless. He poisoned / murdered his oppositions, straight out the dictator book. Xi Jinping however, is smarter, he doesn't use same method.. his ways are more subtler.
Ironically he made this vid hours before Prigozhin died or else he could have added so much more. The real surprise was two months ago when Prigozhin chickened out of the coup and expected to live.

As somebody who isnt russian, but knows quite a bit about politics in general ( I am by no meas an expert or even close to being an expert in this field) l can say that he is yet another channel spouting the same regurgitated message over and over again for views and subs. There are over a dozen such channels who went from f*cking knitting tutorials to being top information sources for the war. It doesnt matter if its high edit quality channel or one of the really sh*tty ones, suddenly everyone is an expert in foreign and internal politics, in warfare, philosophy and history. If you dont trust me look up the 1993 constitutional crisis how did the coup agaisnt Yeltsin went ? Coups are not performed the way these people think they wont recognise one even if ita happening infront of them.
@@danny-vt6qn yes because I know what a coup looks like also because I employ rational thinking and dont just listen to a bunch of people ramble for about 15 minute with good editing which is the main selling point of all these infotainment channels.
@@Coffeepanda294 the girl thats on the heavier side might she show is that evidence that apperantly everybody has seems and knows about how the security service knew about this ,,mutiny" ( wasnt it a rebellion ?

Excellent work !!! I have seen so many infographics, so many analysis and documentaries but this is the best one. Correct facts, great visualization and effective time - thank you !!! Please continue...
okay, Russian native speaker here, let me enlight you. Prigozin never ever said a single bad word about Putin, he had a conflict with Shoigu - minster of defence, please get your facts right, watch all his speches again and study the track record of his conflicts with Russia's elites.
Maybe if you watched the video you'll see that it stated that Prigzhen didn't try to overthrow Putin, he had conflict with the military heads. Don't make assumptions without watching.
@@WaveRider1989 To be fair, a lot comments thank the author for telling em Prigozin rose against Putin so ye... it wasnt mentioned directly but a lot of people didnt get the main idea and point of the vid... and I would add that author pays too much attention on Putin so its not a suprise a lot of people are getting confused)
@@Vic4life That's because he spent whole video explaining Putin's defensive wall and how this rebellion is the downfall of Putin's regime. Especially the conclusion, the wall protected him from outside challengers, but was useless against challenger from inside. Putin being challenged is clearly the main message here. Oh, and lets not ignore the title of the video.
There is also an underlying issue between Prigozhin and Shoigu that wasn't mentioned in the video and which I believe was the driving factor in the disputes between the two mentioned. Shoigu has his own PMC and during the entire battle of Bakhmut and even later on Wagner was receiving less and less ammo and supplies from the goverment. This in part drove the Prigozhin to publicly criticize Shoigu and Gerasimov which was then used as an excuse to give Yevgeny's Concord Catering worse and worse goverment contracts, threatening to drop them completely. In the end the whole thing boiled down to money. If not for the conflict of interests the Wagner coup would probably never have happened.
The whole thing of a Prigozhin coup is a media creation, he was marching to the headquarters of the Russian military, would have he stopped the?, I don't know. The main person he had problems with was Shoigu. That's why Putin solved it by just calling a meeting between them.

It's because they don't believe there is such a thing. Europeans think they are somehow free, that their leaders in Brussels are not corrupt, and that the entire continent is not under USA occupation. This is even though there are all the US military bases around Europe and the national leaders keep making decisions contrary to their national interests but in favor of USA global interests. The media in Europe is pure brainwashing and they don't see it. They think they are somehow good morally and most of all, better than everyone else and this is perpetuated by that same media. Simply unbelievable.
Hi guys. I'm thrilled with the work you are doing. I've been following Johnny Harris since he was at Vox with Borders. What you are doing here is more than journalism, it's Art. I've seen in the promotional video on this channel you guys saying we could suggest some video topics. If you find it interesting and in the context of what is going on in Eastern Europe right now, there was a bank fraud in Moldova. Around 1 billion dollars (10% of its National GDP) were stolen from the banking system of the poorest country in Europe (Moldova). This happened in 2014, and since then, after 9 years, an ex prime minister was convicted, not really related to this, but kinda connected to it. All the supposed felons fled the country, and till now no one is really held responsible. The justice system in the country is corrupt to its core and perpetuated over time. Depopulation is at its peak. Maybe you guys could bring more light into this. Many thanks and keep up with the great job.
Lol, You're naive as fck, It sure is good quality but why would American propaganda have an incentive to cover something negative in Moldova? They might if Moldova is more influential and certainly if they're pro-Russia.
The problem is that people dont admit that western "democracies" are built and run the same way albeit with a better facade,yet that is debatable,maybe its not that they hide it better but people are afraid to admit that poor and weak will be that under any system no matter what promises they make like communists.
Came here to say the same. An analysis of the CIA/FBI/NSA and various high-profile government and elite/banking people could show that what Putin has built is not so different that its Western counterparts.
I think the West is worse becauss they push the liberal agenda too. At least Putinism doesn't try to turm children into transexuals and debase the core of a decent society.
Ain't over at all, now that all his loyalist see he's willing to kill them they have even more reason to gun for Putin. Most won't put up with living under the threat of death from 1 man for long. His closest command will want to live without looking over their shoulders.
@@TheRealBillBobit's not even quality. The guy literally says that Prigozhin wanted to overthrow Putin, while Prigozhin clearly stated that all he wanted was to change the minister of defense Shoigu and some other high rank official Gerasimov
The West knows it is not a democracy.It's a Republic they just lie and push that democracy around the world to bully other countries and if they don't obey the sanction come on a country.
This is the best explanation of the Wagner mutiny that I watched til now. The normal coverage from e.g. Al jazeera - Start now which is average good doesn't explain it so excellent. 👍👍👍
Thank you for explaining this. I didn't understand why it was such a big deal, but now it makes so much more sense since I know how the security layer works under Putin. Thank you again. I'm glad this channel isn't all sports. I am not a sportsfan.
Exactly Prigozhin is just as loyal to Putin as shoigu is. It was never a coup against putin it was wagner trying to supplant the St petersburg strongmen.
This was interesting until you said Putin failed in Ukraine. Look at what Putin did in Georgia and look at what he have done in Ukraine, very similar right? It is named a buffer zone. Of course, for that success, he had to say he wanted to take the entire country, but if he wanted that he would have taken it back in 2014.
That failure is looking good at the moment. I need to remind myself that a goldfish has an attention span of 9 seconds. Some RUclips videos age faster than that! Chechnya is a better example. Once the war finished they now fight for Russia!
Plot Twist: Prigozhin wanted to step down anyways, and this was a great show. Finding the Soldiers who would turn against Putin, collecting them and putting them out of Duty.
Feeling special being able to see this beautifully edited video before it get millions of views (well it deserves millions) also great to see the face behind the voice made me watch the whole ad. Haha
Followed you from the Vox days & I must say it was a pleasant surprise when I clicked on your first video covering the Premier League only to find it was a video by Sam Ellis. I'm a big football fan so that's what initially drew me into the video/channel but obviously knowing the quality of your content I'm excited for what's to come. This was another well done video.
Moscow has 13mln population & very complex city structure. In every window could be potential soldier & there are millions of windows. It's impossible to take such city with 25k army. That said, Wagner group didn't planned to fight in Moscow. There're 2 possible options why they did it: 1. To showcase his power for Russians & create a risk of revolution to have a better position when negotiating with Putin. 2. It was all orchestrated by Kremlin to create a narrative that Wagner group are rebels & Kremlin has no longer power over them. Then Wagner can operate in Belarus as "independent" group & terrorise NATO countries, without going to full scale war with NATO. Never forget that wagner was & will be Russian army, they're not independet company, it's a narrative to terrorize other countries without consequences for Russian gov.
10:03 *when Putin made the rightest and brightest movement of his career i think you wanted to say... Because the one that made the biggest mistake(sunctions) was the collective west, weakening miserably their geopolitical status and the valuevof their currency internationally... In Europe we suffer one of the worst inflations of the last two decades...
There is a lot of claims and assumptions made in this video, without any sources provided or actual references. Other than that The video was well edited
Great video! Loved it. I can't believe this is your 2nd video. Quality and pacing of a seasoned professional. I was following this war very closely since the beginning, but lost interest over the past few months - as it wasn't progressing for quite a while. I had no idea that Progozhin had risen against Putin. Thank you for peaking my interest in this again. Keep up the amazing work!
Lol this really is like a TV show to you. No offence, just bizarre words for me to read. I am used to people at least trying to look like they care about my country and my people, but you just straight up said as long as there's nothing there to entertain me I'm not interested. Damn. At least you're honest about it, appreciate that
@@ansersoftware4463 I'm with OP, I followed VERY closely for many months but stopped for the most part. I knew about Progozhin and still read up occasionally. As harsh as it sounds, people only have so much mental and emotional bandwidth to care about eveything. There's just too much negativity to focus on it all. I don't mean to downplay what your people are living and dying through, but people not directly affected in obvious ways by terrible events half way across the world from them need to decide how much to invest. Whether it's time, money, even thoughts - we are all only human and have many worries in our day-to-day lives.
In the beginning of the video, I thought that the author would tell the objective neutral information. But he decided to go for "Pootin is wEak. His power is dwindling. He will fail" narrative. I think the most logical thing would be to assume that Wagner was called to the front to plug some holes, stabilize the situation and buy some time for Russian military to reorganise after the Kherson and Kharkov retreats. So that Wagner would tie the Ukrainian army and keep it occupied. Which they succeeded. Instead of developing the momentum in the Fall of 2022 when the Russian army was at the lowest (zero morale after Kherson and Kharkov, low numbers, low equipment and ammo production, no fortifications anywhere) the Ukraine decided to throw its reserves into the Bakhmut grinder, completely playing to the Russian plan. And the Wagner was doing its job fine. Its popularity and support was rising. But then the Prigozhin wanted to get even more power. That's when he started publicly criticize the military so that he would get a chance to put his men there and become even more powerful. The Russian MoD didn't like this idea and the fact that tens of thousands of trained men with heavy weaponry were effectively not under their direct command. And so the Russian MoD decided to make it clear: either the Wagner becomes the part of the Army or it should not appear on the frontline as a potential liability. The Prigozhin caught wind of it and decided to go all-out since he believed that the population and the top military officers would support him. But it never happened. That's why the mutiny ended that quickly. But even now it's unclear who killed Prigozhin. The most obvious would be the Russian leadership since he was posing a significant threat to it. The less popular theories would be the Wagner itself (to clear its name), the Ukrainian/Western intelligence agencies (to remove the two top leaders of Wagner and stir additional discontent among its supporters).
I find it scary right upfront at 0:04 he says "was the leader of a private militia", instead of "is the leader" implying he was dead or retired, before he even died.
Great video, This video may seem strange to some who do not understand how power works in dictatorships, as you were explaining the security block of Putin, all I can think about is how similar these tactics are to what I see in Morocco and how the king with the friends that he studied with are controlling morocco, how security services the military the interior ministry and a grip on the buisness community and media keep the regime alive, and how these services are vowing for who can please the king the most and who can get to influence him the most and how they keep each eachother in check by spying on eachother
Same is on Balkan. When I connect the dots, I do understand why we are regressing. I do not see dictatorships but political mafia which servers to its own interests. And political mafia behavior is a layer for peoples social behavior. They are imitating their leaders in a loop. Such a waste of life and time.
I think it's important to remember that Western 'liberal democracies' function much the same way, they're just better at concealing the operative mechanics of it.
Do you have a source list for this video? Keen to do some background reading on the topic for an upcoming assignment but can't find any links to information used in this.
Exactly. I am a French and it is pretty obvious to people who truly studies Russia, that the Russian people have absolutely no reason to dislike the guy. Many in the West love Putin too despite the Propaganda. Russia and to a wider extent the world is blessed to have Putin. If there is one man who can help us get rid of all the Psychopaths in Power it is him.
He also won the support of the civilian population, which didn't want too much back then after the dissolution. Before him, due to the sudden and chaotic privatization of factories and business, workers were not being paid for months or even years, and crime was rampant. Upon his election, he brought back order, and workers began being paid on time. This won him the support of the majority.
His biggest mistake was criticizing the Ukrainian war. Everything else could have been overlooked but he ❤decided to criticize the foundation of the entire situation
did u forget when he made videos about how the special military operation was a lie and stuff like "we were lied to, there were no nazis in ukraine"@@ugetrekd9217

Russia's neo-feudal political structure is suffering from the same flaws as regular feudalism. Namely, that it can only succeed when regular citizens are apathetic but also considerable resources are spent/hoarded from the lords 'fighting' each other. When your everyday person doesn't care about the war and your lords are constantly fighting each other, you've vastly limited the resources you can deploy/spend on a war. It's why the much smaller Ukraine is able to defend itself -- practically all of its citizens and powerful people are engaged towards a single goal. Meanwhile, in Russia, it's simple game theory that the lords that are spending resources on the Ukraine war are doing an idiotic thing. Why not pocket the money and use it fight your rivals? Any ruble spent on the war is a ruble not available when the shit hits the fan -- for example if Putin suddenly dies or some other faction makes its move against you or Putin himself. There are many reasons feudalism isn't used anymore, but one of the biggest reasons is that other political structures are better able to deploy more resources and they out-competed their feudal neighbors. Putin's view of history is myopic, reactionary, and extremely Russian exceptionalistic. Because of that, he really only had two models to draw from -- USSR-style politburo politics and imperial Russia politics. It's no surprise that his government is setup like feudalism but run like the politburo USSR days.
I'm not sure I see close enough analogs to feudalism here. Although I'm sure that oligarchs and officials have their security groups, I'm unaware of any private armies, which we would see in feudalism. I think this is still totalitarianism, and although he's designed conflict into the system, it's not the same as principalities and kingdoms, because he's got his fingers everywhere. Feudalism generally relies on military control, and feudal states have notable autonomy. The security forces and oligarchs don't appear to fit the idea of feudal states.

okay, Russian native speaker here, let me enlight you. Prigozin never ever said a single bad word about Putin, he had a conflict with Shoigu - minster of defence, please get your facts right, watch all his speches again and study the track record of his conflicts with Russia's elites.
Maybe if you watched the video you'll see that it stated that Prigzhen didn't try to overthrow Putin, he had conflict with the military heads. Don't make assumptions without watching.
I just love how errogant ur comment is and how this is also completely stupid
@@WaveRider1989 To be fair, a lot comments thank the author for telling em Prigozin rose against Putin so ye... it wasnt mentioned directly but a lot of people didnt get the main idea and point of the vid... and I would add that author pays too much attention on Putin so its not a suprise a lot of people are getting confused)
@@Vic4life That's because he spent whole video explaining Putin's defensive wall and how this rebellion is the downfall of Putin's regime. Especially the conclusion, the wall protected him from outside challengers, but was useless against challenger from inside. Putin being challenged is clearly the main message here. Oh, and lets not ignore the title of the video.
Prigozin attacked the Kremlin
This aged tragically well
Tragically?

@cucumbercat4522 good
It's crazy this is a new channel. The videos are so high quality and great to watch. Keep up the good work.
There is also an underlying issue between Prigozhin and Shoigu that wasn't mentioned in the video and which I believe was the driving factor in the disputes between the two mentioned. Shoigu has his own PMC and during the entire battle of Bakhmut and even later on Wagner was receiving less and less ammo and supplies from the goverment. This in part drove the Prigozhin to publicly criticize Shoigu and Gerasimov which was then used as an excuse to give Yevgeny's Concord Catering worse and worse goverment contracts, threatening to drop them completely. In the end the whole thing boiled down to money. If not for the conflict of interests the Wagner coup would probably never have happened.
The whole thing of a Prigozhin coup is a media creation, he was marching to the headquarters of the Russian military, would have he stopped the?, I don't know. The main person he had problems with was Shoigu. That's why Putin solved it by just calling a meeting between them.
"Why Putin is so hard to overthrow?"
Why would you do such a thing?
He is simply the best you choose him for your protection he love his people and country is that simple xxx
@lilgreenshadow not up to the west to choose Russia's leader. It is up to thew Russians, and they have chosen. suck a fat one. enjoy YOUR so called "freedom and democracy" and dont worry about us
@lilgreenshadow then overthrow the USA because it's dictating the "war" and mass murder in the middle east
@lilgreenshadowit doesn’t matter if your country has a dictator if he’s doing his job

Then they loaded their donkeys with their grain and departed.
It's because they don't believe there is such a thing. Europeans think they are somehow free, that their leaders in Brussels are not corrupt, and that the entire continent is not under USA occupation. This is even though there are all the US military bases around Europe and the national leaders keep making decisions contrary to their national interests but in favor of USA global interests. The media in Europe is pure brainwashing and they don't see it. They think they are somehow good morally and most of all, better than everyone else and this is perpetuated by that same media. Simply unbelievable.
@BrettHar123spot on bro.
@BrettHar123Yeah. If you check out the descriptions of these kinds of videos, you’ll find most are sponsored by the WEF or others
Incredible way to use visuals! Great video, thanks a lot for this!
Hi guys. I'm thrilled with the work you are doing. I've been following Johnny Harris since he was at Vox with Borders.
What you are doing here is more than journalism, it's Art.
I've seen in the promotional video on this channel you guys saying we could suggest some video topics.
If you find it interesting and in the context of what is going on in Eastern Europe right now, there was a bank fraud in Moldova. Around 1 billion dollars (10% of its National GDP) were stolen from the banking system of the poorest country in Europe (Moldova). This happened in 2014, and since then, after 9 years, an ex prime minister was convicted, not really related to this, but kinda connected to it. All the supposed felons fled the country, and till now no one is really held responsible.
The justice system in the country is corrupt to its core and perpetuated over time. Depopulation is at its peak.
Maybe you guys could bring more light into this.
Many thanks and keep up with the great job.
No need to be concerned about the justice system in the good old USA. No Corruption there, right serg.
Lol, You're naive as fck, It sure is good quality but why would American propaganda have an incentive to cover something negative in Moldova?
They might if Moldova is more influential and certainly if they're pro-Russia.
So happy to see a new video on the channel! The first video was awesome 👏🏽
hard to overthrow someone that has the full support of his country
Good joke 😅👌
@@AwesomeRepix Western "leadership" is a joke.
And yes, Putin popularity in Russia has never been higher.
is that why hundreds of thousands have fled russia?
@@AwesomeRepixnot a joke
@@JuliusKinderis Fantastic joke! Made me smile!
The problem is that people dont admit that western "democracies" are built and run the same way albeit with a better facade,yet that is debatable,maybe its not that they hide it better but people are afraid to admit that poor and weak will be that under any system no matter what promises they make like communists.
Very correct. Across the world it’s a class war. War against those with money and power who are deathly afraid of losing it.
Came here to say the same. An analysis of the CIA/FBI/NSA and various high-profile government and elite/banking people could show that what Putin has built is not so different that its Western counterparts.
I think the West is worse becauss they push the liberal agenda too. At least Putinism doesn't try to turm children into transexuals and debase the core of a decent society.
@@jytouWhat he has built is capitalism.
Great video. Makes it easier to piece together the events of the following week
I guess his grip isn't shaky at all now😂
Ain't over at all, now that all his loyalist see he's willing to kill them they have even more reason to gun for Putin. Most won't put up with living under the threat of death from 1 man for long. His closest command will want to live without looking over their shoulders.
In America the founders of large successful corporations are called entrepreneurs. The sane type in Russia. We call oligarchs
and in russia oligarchs are the bad people, so using the same logic all billionaires in the west are also bad people?
What a great video! Subscribed to the channel. I would love to hear more stories about Ukraine and Russia!

Extremely well explained with script and animation. Thanks for the excellent video!
You should do a follow-up with the Tver plane crash, it's not crazy to see how this video is related to that.
This is the best explanation of the Wagner mutiny that I watched til now. The normal coverage from e.g. Al jazeera - Start now which is average good doesn't explain it so excellent. 👍👍👍
Very good video. Dificult to summarise in a shot video.
Congrats on the map/visualisation, it helps a lot to understand/ visualise the content
Trying to understand Putin's game is where everyone seems to be failing at, they keep getting it wrong😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you for explaining this. I didn't understand why it was such a big deal, but now it makes so much more sense since I know how the security layer works under Putin. Thank you again. I'm glad this channel isn't all sports. I am not a sportsfan.
Exactly Prigozhin is just as loyal to Putin as shoigu is. It was never a coup against putin it was wagner trying to supplant the St petersburg strongmen.
I hope they put more sports on, there’s more to the world than wars and the negative side of geopolitics.
@@mosijahi3096I hope they put more geopolitics on, there’s more to the world than kicking and throwing balls around.
@@b__c7538 sports most don’t involve balls at all also sports are involved in geopolitics as well - just in case you don’t know that.
I just like all the content
Fantastic explanation and the visuals in this episode were absolutely fantastic.
Wow, very well explained, a pleasure to watch✌️😄
He stays in power with 80% approval rating....in reality I mean...
Your episodes need to get longer, great content, keep going!
We're all SO surprised how this one turned out.
This was interesting until you said Putin failed in Ukraine. Look at what Putin did in Georgia and look at what he have done in Ukraine, very similar right? It is named a buffer zone. Of course, for that success, he had to say he wanted to take the entire country, but if he wanted that he would have taken it back in 2014.
It's getting worse for Ukraine...
That failure is looking good at the moment. I need to remind myself that a goldfish has an attention span of 9 seconds. Some RUclips videos age faster than that! Chechnya is a better example. Once the war finished they now fight for Russia!
Fantastic editing man.
Loved it
So now this needs a follow-up 😂.
Both videos on this channel were excellent. The editing, explanation and graphics are top drawer. Well done
Plot Twist: Prigozhin wanted to step down anyways, and this was a great show. Finding the Soldiers who would turn against Putin, collecting them and putting them out of Duty.
Because he has the faith of the people, period (no need to even watch the video)
Feeling special being able to see this beautifully edited video before it get millions of views (well it deserves millions) also great to see the face behind the voice made me watch the whole ad. Haha
yes
Followed you from the Vox days & I must say it was a pleasant surprise when I clicked on your first video covering the Premier League only to find it was a video by Sam Ellis. I'm a big football fan so that's what initially drew me into the video/channel but obviously knowing the quality of your content I'm excited for what's to come. This was another well done video.
Great analysis, thanks
Great stuff !!! Straight from Miami Florida .
Moscow has 13mln population & very complex city structure. In every window could be potential soldier & there are millions of windows. It's impossible to take such city with 25k army. That said, Wagner group didn't planned to fight in Moscow.
There're 2 possible options why they did it:
1. To showcase his power for Russians & create a risk of revolution to have a better position when negotiating with Putin.
2. It was all orchestrated by Kremlin to create a narrative that Wagner group are rebels & Kremlin has no longer power over them. Then Wagner can operate in Belarus as "independent" group & terrorise NATO countries, without going to full scale war with NATO.
Never forget that wagner was & will be Russian army, they're not independet company, it's a narrative to terrorize other countries without consequences for Russian gov.
Who is watching this after the plane crash?
10:03 *when Putin made the rightest and brightest movement of his career i think you wanted to say... Because the one that made the biggest mistake(sunctions) was the collective west, weakening miserably their geopolitical status and the valuevof their currency internationally...
In Europe we suffer one of the worst inflations of the last two decades...
When you invest you're buying a day you don't have to work.

I advice everyone to start investing and never rely on just salary. No billionaire made it through salary
Too bad that has nothing to do with the video, bots.
There is a lot of claims and assumptions made in this video, without any sources provided or actual references. Other than that The video was well edited
I'm glad someone else picked up on the many claims made without any source, or with sources that have questionable reputation.
This is what you look like! I’ve been enjoying your voice since the Vox days and over the moon that I’ve found your own channel. New subscriber ✅
Great video! Loved it. I can't believe this is your 2nd video. Quality and pacing of a seasoned professional.
I was following this war very closely since the beginning, but lost interest over the past few months - as it wasn't progressing for quite a while. I had no idea that Progozhin had risen against Putin. Thank you for peaking my interest in this again.
Keep up the amazing work!
Lol this really is like a TV show to you. No offence, just bizarre words for me to read. I am used to people at least trying to look like they care about my country and my people, but you just straight up said as long as there's nothing there to entertain me I'm not interested. Damn. At least you're honest about it, appreciate that
@@ansersoftware4463 I'm with OP, I followed VERY closely for many months but stopped for the most part. I knew about Progozhin and still read up occasionally. As harsh as it sounds, people only have so much mental and emotional bandwidth to care about eveything. There's just too much negativity to focus on it all. I don't mean to downplay what your people are living and dying through, but people not directly affected in obvious ways by terrible events half way across the world from them need to decide how much to invest. Whether it's time, money, even thoughts - we are all only human and have many worries in our day-to-day lives.
In the beginning of the video, I thought that the author would tell the objective neutral information. But he decided to go for "Pootin is wEak. His power is dwindling. He will fail" narrative.
I think the most logical thing would be to assume that Wagner was called to the front to plug some holes, stabilize the situation and buy some time for Russian military to reorganise after the Kherson and Kharkov retreats. So that Wagner would tie the Ukrainian army and keep it occupied. Which they succeeded. Instead of developing the momentum in the Fall of 2022 when the Russian army was at the lowest (zero morale after Kherson and Kharkov, low numbers, low equipment and ammo production, no fortifications anywhere) the Ukraine decided to throw its reserves into the Bakhmut grinder, completely playing to the Russian plan. And the Wagner was doing its job fine. Its popularity and support was rising. But then the Prigozhin wanted to get even more power. That's when he started publicly criticize the military so that he would get a chance to put his men there and become even more powerful. The Russian MoD didn't like this idea and the fact that tens of thousands of trained men with heavy weaponry were effectively not under their direct command. And so the Russian MoD decided to make it clear: either the Wagner becomes the part of the Army or it should not appear on the frontline as a potential liability. The Prigozhin caught wind of it and decided to go all-out since he believed that the population and the top military officers would support him. But it never happened. That's why the mutiny ended that quickly.
But even now it's unclear who killed Prigozhin. The most obvious would be the Russian leadership since he was posing a significant threat to it. The less popular theories would be the Wagner itself (to clear its name), the Ukrainian/Western intelligence agencies (to remove the two top leaders of Wagner and stir additional discontent among its supporters).
If any RUclips video were ever more timely than this, it would be nothing short of a miracle. RIP Prighozin
I dont think Prighozin was killed. He is probably alive and well somewhere in Belarus.
I find it scary right upfront at 0:04 he says "was the leader of a private militia", instead of "is the leader" implying he was dead or retired, before he even died.
Bruh u might be onto something frl...that is crazyyy..
You need to pyt an update at the end of this video since its so vital. Otherwise, Nice video man!:)
Great video, This video may seem strange to some who do not understand how power works in dictatorships, as you were explaining the security block of Putin, all I can think about is how similar these tactics are to what I see in Morocco and how the king with the friends that he studied with are controlling morocco, how security services the military the interior ministry and a grip on the buisness community and media keep the regime alive, and how these services are vowing for who can please the king the most and who can get to influence him the most and how they keep each eachother in check by spying on eachother
Same is on Balkan. When I connect the dots, I do understand why we are regressing. I do not see dictatorships but political mafia which servers to its own interests. And political mafia behavior is a layer for peoples social behavior. They are imitating their leaders in a loop. Such a waste of life and time.
Same in the United States, when you know who controls the government it makes sense why the stupidest people like Trump or Biden become the leaders
CGP Grey has a great video called "The Rules for Rulers". It's explaining exactly this concept in detail.
@@muchomacho4139thanks for the tip

There's no such thing as "journalism", it's *activism with a bigger microphone and a corporate sponsor.
I think saying Putin’s grip on power is weaker than ever based on this situation is more hope than anything concrete.
Pure hopium
This aged well. 75% voter turnout, 88% voted for "Putin's grip on power". Just to let you read your comment again. Thank me later.
He also won the support of the civilian population, which didn't want too much back then after the dissolution. Before him, due to the sudden and chaotic privatization of factories and business, workers were not being paid for months or even years, and crime was rampant. Upon his election, he brought back order, and workers began being paid on time. This won him the support of the majority.
And that is why he is the "Enemy" of the west!
Great content!
His biggest mistake was criticizing the Ukrainian war. Everything else could have been overlooked but he ❤decided to criticize the foundation of the entire situation
He never criticized the Ukraine war in fact he wanted more involvement
did u forget when he made videos about how the special military operation was a lie and stuff like "we were lied to, there were no nazis in ukraine"@@ugetrekd9217

Russia's neo-feudal political structure is suffering from the same flaws as regular feudalism. Namely, that it can only succeed when regular citizens are apathetic but also considerable resources are spent/hoarded from the lords 'fighting' each other.
When your everyday person doesn't care about the war and your lords are constantly fighting each other, you've vastly limited the resources you can deploy/spend on a war. It's why the much smaller Ukraine is able to defend itself -- practically all of its citizens and powerful people are engaged towards a single goal. Meanwhile, in Russia, it's simple game theory that the lords that are spending resources on the Ukraine war are doing an idiotic thing. Why not pocket the money and use it fight your rivals? Any ruble spent on the war is a ruble not available when the shit hits the fan -- for example if Putin suddenly dies or some other faction makes its move against you or Putin himself.
There are many reasons feudalism isn't used anymore, but one of the biggest reasons is that other political structures are better able to deploy more resources and they out-competed their feudal neighbors.
Putin's view of history is myopic, reactionary, and extremely Russian exceptionalistic. Because of that, he really only had two models to draw from -- USSR-style politburo politics and imperial Russia politics. It's no surprise that his government is setup like feudalism but run like the politburo USSR days.
I'm not sure I see close enough analogs to feudalism here. Although I'm sure that oligarchs and officials have their security groups, I'm unaware of any private armies, which we would see in feudalism. I think this is still totalitarianism, and although he's designed conflict into the system, it's not the same as principalities and kingdoms, because he's got his fingers everywhere. Feudalism generally relies on military control, and feudal states have notable autonomy. The security forces and oligarchs don't appear to fit the idea of feudal states.

try to capture the indo china conflict in arunachal and tibet and also maybe the voice vote in australia covering the indigenious people and modern day australia, another topic could be aukus deal and australia's maritime strategy going forward in the 21st century.
Thank you.
