Uraaa Uraaaa
Who cares what he did before, plenty of people get fed up and I give them credit where it's due.
russia is a great power
Do you feel yourself fooled? 😎
This is a real example for diplomacy..Belarus president avoided blood shed and clinched peace deal.What one nation did cannot be done by 50Plus nations to Ukraine.All 50plua need blood shed and need revenge to russia.Ukraine people should come to reality and judge what their stand on diplomacy
Mr.Putin,s power & authority is completely humiliated. Morality, courage, discipline, willing to fight of Russian army
shaken. It is clear that Mr. Putin has lost his command and control. Ukraine now can use the opportunity. But this situation may encourage Mr. Putin to use B C. N weapons.
millions were fooled…….that mutinee was just a planned comedy drama by putin and prigozhin, the two big time liars, to sway attention on Ukraine's winning the liberation of their lands.
All that happened after Ukraine invasion in 2014 and frozen conflict until now!! That was biggest mistake west had made on Russia!!!
He failed in America because America is still America and still leads the world, he failed in Ukraine and his kind withdrawal as big show just to cover up.
Now he could accept plan for go back on Kiev from Belarus!!!
Where is Chechen???
Didn’t they went after Progozin to destroy him!!!
Lol 😂 boys!!!
It was an adorbale attempt fake news….
tough to stoke a rebellion when nobody believes anything you say…
Hahaha!!! Poor west,will do anything to save its face! Wheres the rebellion now! Sweep under the carpet!?
The mob lol :07
Putin's military is in complete chaos just like the Republican Party is.
Republicans are spreading propagandas and lies to confuse their supporters
just like Putin is doing to Russian people.
Looks like the danger will now come from North Ukraine that people got distracted and confused about this.
What did we learn today? Russian homeland is defenseless. The Russian military is gutted. There are no troops left in Russia they're all in Ukraine. Putin had to negotiate to stop prigozhyn from sacking moscow. Putin's ego must really be hurting right now.
Hello.
Remember.
Russians like to play chess.
Good luck.
Putin moved nukes into Belarus some months ago. Now, Pregozhin is in there. Remember, his quarrel with Putin's generals is about not giving him enough munitions to end the war. Now, he has the nukes. This might be very bad for Ukraine.
In my opinion the whole thing was a ruse to catch Zelensyi off-guard
I will be suspicious of him going to Belarus because that's where they're holding those nuclear weapons
Let's all remember that The Stable Genius's initial assessment of Putin's invasion of Ukraine is that it was a "genius" move. Is that guy ever wrong about anything!?
The world would be a better place without Russia and it's crooked politicians.
Lukashenko and Prigozhin both want putler off their backs
anything orange man say's, do opposite. you'll always win https://youtu.be/51HlQiTZTTY
BREAKING: Elon Musk and Tesla group said to be moving in on Moscow, sources say. Musk’s group is heavily armed and gaining members as it closes in on Moscow.
Ukraine is failing in their much anticipated counter offensive, Zelensky is grossly irresponsible for not negotiating a peaceful end to the endless killing…!!!
So youre moving the rebellion leader to the same country as the Nukes. Smooth maneuver hoover
Ukraine + Wagner tho
So many lies in this propaganda piece. It’s painful to see how much people are being lied too when you actually know the truth
Putin is feeling the heat 🔥 in his seat. 🍳
u just got fam off of CNN and power hungry after a wanna be win in Ukraine so fake so fake as fucc
im da boss
