Something unusual is happening indeed. Based on my experience living under a comparable regime, I infer the situation to be as follows:
- Prigozhin is entirely aligned with Putin.
- However, there's some ambiguity regarding the army's leadership complete allegiance to Putin.
Thus, the crux of the matter appears to be the strategy to displace specific factions within the army and replace them with supporters of Putin.

That is 100% against every major decision of Putin and a direct attack to his authority, even though he softened it up by stating he was wrongly informed by the military.

- hutzlibu 3y agoThat still makes Putin weak, when he, who was raised by the KGB, is not able to get acurate information. (He does have internet btw. and he speaks more than russian.)

- hardwaresofton 3y agoFully agree, this is exactly what I thought yesterday. The check was going to be if military leadership changed and it all resolved peacefully. Guess what happened.
