    Maybe that was the deal. Prigozhin fakes his death and lives out the rest of his years incognito while Putin ends up looking like he’s assassinated the leader of the coup.

      Yeah that was probably the deal but then Putin actually kills him because he’s a literal Bond villain.

      Please explain the universe in which there is utility for Putin to have an incognito Prigozhin running around on a beach somewhere sufficient to fake a plane crash.

      Cui bono?

    And here I thought he might have survived the crash that killed every other person on the plane.

          To avoid being murdered for being against Putin, probably.

          Nobody who’s not a total piece of shit and/or related to him is going to miss that neonazi, but let’s not pretend that his death was accidental or even overzealous punishment for his many ACTUAL crimes.

    So normally everything the russian say is a lie… I think I’ll keep on handling russian “news” that way.
