Prigozhin either knows that a large part of the Russian army is somehow on his side or this is the craziest suicide attempt ever. Either way, this is insanity. 

There are a lot of reports of Russian army units either standing by while Wagner passes or joining Wagner...

Well, this whole thing could have been aimed at removing Shoygu & Gerasimov but Putin misjudged how powerful they really are and suddenly it's Prigozhin who will be getting the axe instead as the "coup" turns into a failure? :mumble:

Who knows, although so far there are zero signs of it turning into a failure yet :p 

 

I suppose we'll have to wait and see, surely there is going to be plenty of more news today. Russian army would be smart to not fight back, or else it's just an escalation. They'd better negotiate and accept losing everything in order to keep the peace.

 

Spoiler

Nonsense of course, but those who say Ukraine should negotiate with Russia are thinking along those lines :p

Honestly, seeing Russia's map light up more than Ukraine's was really a good feeling.

 

After all of the terror they caused, it feels right that they face terror of their own. 

On the bright side for the Russia fans: Russian fighters last night/morning captured the biggest city they've captured so far in this entire conflict. Sure, it's Rostov and it's inside Russia, but alright :d 

 

Oh and shit ain't over in Rostov yet :p

Yeah, one of our famous public figures, a journalist that covers a lot of political content started the morning with this post:

 

Po pusantrų metų karo rusai pagaliau įvykdė, ką norėjo - paėmė didelį miestą per naktį.
Tik tas miestas - Rostovas.
Per federalinius kanalus transliuojami reportažai, kaip taisyklingai prižiūrėti agurkus.

 

Which translates to:

 

After a year and half of war, the Russians finally achieved what they wanted - they took over a huge city overnight.

It's just that that city is Rostov.

Meanwhile on Russian TV channels they are broadcasting how you should properly grow and look after cucumbers.

That is useful, I've tried growing some cucumbers but they just ended up a tasteless bit of nothing...

 

Meanwhile rumours are appearing that Kadyrov and his TikTok scum of the earth is moving towards Rostov. That's going to be quite something if true, two groups full with some of the most horrible pieces of shit on earth fighting it out (and lessenning the number of those monsters who can go to Ukraine). Excellent, I do only hope our Russian Totallympians aren't in Rostov.

    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
    • Sinner probably won't play in another edition of the Davis Cup. That shouldn't come as a surprise. Next season, Wimbledon and maybe Paris should be the goal.
    • No, our epee was good always, we have Shemyakina, who was Olympic Champion in 2012, Reizlin with bronze in 2020, medalists of Worlds like Kryvytska (who is our finisher today), Svichkar (who is our finisher in men's side) and Stankevych, European champion Kharkova, medals in other conpetitions from men's team epee who were one of the main contenders in Tokyo, but unfortunately failed to take a medal. 
    • Does Ukraine have good relations with Poland, or are they more cold, like, for example, Italy with France?
    • Until recently, Ukrainian fencing was just Kharlan and sabre. Maybe epee sometimes. I don't remember them ever was strong in foil. There was a time when Russia, Romania and Poland were strong in foil at that time when Italy dominated but I don't remember Ukraine anymore.   Hungarian women with Aida Mahomed were too strong for many years.
    • No surprise with Aaron Judge winning AL MVP and Shohei Ohtani winning NL MVP awards.   Ohtani is the second player in history to win MVP in both leagues. Frank Robinson (1961 Reds & 1966 Orioles) was the only one before.
    • Ukraine twice in one day defeated Italy and France, like what the heck?
