More likely talking about the Iraqi civil war that broke out after his death and the long term bloody insurgency… a 14 year conflict that killed somewhere between 300,000 and a million Iraqis since the launch of the U.S. invasion in 2003.

Displaced another 7-9 million.

And ended with Iraq under the de-facto control of the ayatollahs of Iran.

If you are threatening me with the idea that Russia is going to bust into a long civil war and start selling each other as slaves I'm ok with that.

I think the guy is confusing US national security with internal chaos.

Turning the largest nation on earth into 1990s Yugoslavia or modern day Syria sounds like a disaster of biblical proportions.

The last time Russia fell into a civil war…millions died and the Communists took power…leading to the destabilization of eastern and Central Europe for almost the entire 20th century.

Regardless if a 'deal' was brokered or not this is a diaster for Putin.

Did they have an unarmed Buffalo man? Nothing says serious insurrection like a bunch of unarmed larpers.

I kind of suspected that it was more of a symbolic gesture on the Wagner guy's part. The Russian military consists of like three or four different factions all competing for the same resources doled out by Putin, and with their war not going well, it probably won't be the last infighting we see

and how can we call, in the broader context of history, a Soviet regime which lasted barely 70 years then fell apart again a "stabilizing influence?"

could it be that the formation of inherently unstable, corrupt, backward Russian empires is what creates the instability....that makes the instability only greater?

I mean, the regime you are implying is a "stabilizing influence" last week called in Chechen militias to help defend the Russian capital from a rebellion of mercenary forces.

Open your eyes. Upon what basis can we conclude Russia, as currently constituted, is capable of stabilizing anything?
