Experts react: What the Prigozhin plane crash reveals about Putin, the Wagner Group’s future, and the war in Ukraine

It was easier to approach Moscow in June than to leave it in August.

Some reports have indicated that the plane was downed by Russian air defenses. Just hours earlier, General Sergei Surovikin, who allegedly had advance knowledge of the Wagner mutiny and had not been seen in public since it occurred, was removed from his post as head of Russia’s air force.

New World Order: From The Legacy Of Colonialism To Sovereignty And Development – OpEd

Many of today’s problems affecting the majority of the world, including Africa and Russia, are a direct consequence of the persistence of old colonialism and the imposition of renewed forms of colonialism.

Conversely, the notorious prosperity of the West can be attributed to the rules of a predatory world order generated by this colonial legacy.

RUSSOPHOBIA AGAINST RUSSIA IN THE INFORMATION WAR

Attempts to discredit the concept of the “Russian world” – a view from Serbia.

Why Putin Wanted Prigozhin Dead

A Conversation With Tatiana Stanovaya

In a Foreign Affairs article released earlier this month, Tatiana Stanovaya, a senior fellow at the Carnegie Russia Eurasia Center, tallied the mounting stressors on Vladimir Putin’s regime—particularly the short-lived mutiny led by Yevgeny Prigozhin, the head of the Wagner private military company. The rebellion was “the product of Putin’s inaction,” she wrote, and the leniency afforded to Prigozhin afterward made the Russian president look “less powerful.” On Wednesday, Putin may have gotten his payback after all: Prigozhin was listed among the fatalities of a private jet that crashed outside Moscow. Executive Editor Stuart Reid spoke with Stanovaya the same day. Their conversation has been edited for clarity and length.
