#Russia to #Brazil aviation investigators: We will not adhere to "international rules" to examine jet crash that killed #WagnerGroup's #YevgenyPrigozhin and 9 others north of Moscow
"It was painfully plain that after his failed rebellion, Prigozhin was a dead man flying."
Here's what you need to know about the reported death in a plane crash of the Russian mercenary leader who led a mutiny against Vladimir Putin, written by a national security expert who headed the Obama Administration's National Intelligence Council.
@TheConversationUS Yes, #YevgenyPrigozhin was "a dead man flying", but it is just as painfully clear (to me) that #Prigozhin 's 'rebellion' was NOT against #Putin , but the Russian military brass. I wouldn't be surprised if Putin paid him in advance to stage it. This hypothesis is supported by the manner in which #Prigozhin was liquidated; shot out of the sky, and not pushed out of a window. 🤷♂️
