I’d be shocked if this was true. I would think that would be the first FSB tactic that they would’ve performed. It’s a classic one in movies as well. It’ll be absolutely insane if this is what stopped the coup.

I mean the dude announced that he was goiyto do a coup before he even started. That doesn't sound really bright to me

The whole lot doesn't seem bright at all. Then they basically drove through to Moscow like they were having a leisurely stroll and lost one truck. Russia looks so pathetic right now.

he just wanted to retire apparently as his war machine was not making him money in Ukraine and I guess that's one way to do it.
