They’re a 50000-person-strong PMC. No way can they take on the full might of the Russian military unless you see huge swathes of the military join their rebellion.
It wouldn’t surprise me at all if Russian military sympathizers and defectors turn the tables. It’s a war of attrition with no end in sight, being lied to and shoved into a meat grinder for almost a year and a half, war crimes, everything else, and here comes a guy candidly talking about the ineptitude at the very top and making advances against it. Might ring true to a lot of Russian military

true … but the full might of the russian military is currently a bit stressed by another “special” task
I would bet that if this lasts any amount of time wagner will be receiving covert support in cash and eauipment from the u.s. and nato.
Which they will promptly forget about as soon as they get their way and then in 20 years everyone will wonder where the war lords came from.
That’s just tradition.

That’s what they said about Ukraine.
At this point I’d not be surprised. I don’t expect it, but it wouldn’t shock me.
