Russian paramilitary chief Yevgeny Prigozhin’s apparent assassination could light the fuse on another cycle of internal blood-letting despite Russian President Vladimir Putin’s desire to assert authority within the Russian system.
“Basically, you are creating another group of people who want revenge, again,” a senior European official observed. “So it's not solving the root issues.”Prigozhin’s death prompted an outpouring of grief and anger by his devotees within the Wagner Group’s online publishing eco-system and at makeshift shrines in St. Petersburg, his hometown and the intended destination of his final flight from Moscow on Wednesday.
“I think this movie is called ‘A Dog’s Death to a Dog,’” Prigozhin said in November as video of the killing circulated on Twitter. “This show shows that the sledgehammer-ed [man] didn’t find happiness in Ukraine, but was met with unkind but fair people.” Those denunciations portended his eventual break with Moscow officialdom and his shocking yet short-lived uprising, which Putin deemed an “armed mutiny” but then agreed to overlook as part of a deal to avoid a bloody showdown in Moscow.
"Here we can talk about the 'cleansing of key witnesses,' about which there was not a sound in the media," Girkin said in a statement through his attorney on social media."It is yet another evidence of the further deepening of unrest in Russia. Prigozhin should have been tried, not eliminated, now he will not be able to testify. The dashing 90s are returning, and this is very dangerous and fraught.
