Russia is a failing state.
That’s the key takeaway from the ongoing crisis surrounding would-be strongman, Yevgeny Prigozhin, the tough-talking chief of the Wagner private military company.
Prigozhin’s coup may or may not succeed. While his victory would spell the end of the Putin regime, the very fact of a systemic crisis is what ultimately matters more.
Stable regimes don’t face such challenges. Unstable regimes beset by deep-seated contradictions between elites, rulers, and subjects do.

Vladimir Putin is far weaker than his propagandists in both Russia and the West would have us believe.
And how could he not be the target of withering scorn and derision?
He’s driven Russia off a cliff and has no idea of how to bring about a soft landing. Given the disastrous shape of his army, economy, and realm, it would be a downright miracle for no opposition to his self-destructive misrule to have emerged. Ironically, Putin called Prigozhin’s actions “a stab in the back of the country and the people.”
Not a chance!!!
