Afraid would trigger putin into some response against the rest. a lot of those folks think, hey, putin could get its act together yesterday. take advantage. this shows how to shovel they are. maybe you could go for crimea. maybe you could put that more advanced stuff. and maybe this counteroffensive could be far more aggressive and really, we re afraid of something we don t need to be afraid of. now your, at what will all of this mean though for the future of the wagner group? prigozhin is not a hero in this case. he is somebody who has taken money to be brutal on the battlefield. everywhere from syria to ukraine. many of the atrocities that we have been covering and we ve heard and documented have been conducted by his group of people. absent to his leadership on the battlefield, there is, as kevin, said an opportunity for allies and for the ukrainians to be moving forward. it also shows that the idea of ....

Weakness. wagner folks have pulled out. wagner the russian soldiers are probably down 25,000 or 50,000. there are weaknesses on the russian line that the ukrainians are eager to take advantage of. they have morale and they have enthusiasm. they see that now it s the time. they are excited that there is a possible crack in the system that they see putin being vulnerable. they are not excited about the wagner group. i, mean there are certainly no friends to ukraine. not a bit. they are not. friends the wagner group is now pulled out, they are no longer on the front line with the russians facing the ukrainians. that is a hole in the line. the russians have to find troops to plug this. kevin, we have the same videos showing russians and everyday civilians cheering on the wagner forces as they left. we also saw people taking ....
