From the BBC

Speaking to BBC World Service Newshour, Saks says just before Russia began its 2022 attack on Ukraine the world thought Russia had “the second most powerful army in the world”.

“Yesterday everybody knew that Russia was the second most powerful army in Ukraine and today we're seeing how... the Russian army is becoming the second most powerful army in Russia."

I suspect there's more to come. Maybe not immediately but there are scores to settle, when the opportunity presents itself.

Given that Putin called him a traitor, I don't fancy Prigozhin's chances of making pensionable age.

Prigozhin has guns to Belarus apparently. Call me mystic Meg but I see uranium tipped umbrella in his near future and he should also run a gieger counter over any hot beverages he's served.

He would be well advised to get his retaliation in first. I imagine Vlad's paranoia level will be quite elevated now.

Maybe the two of them could be on the undercard for the forthcoming billionaire cage fight?
