The Wagner Revolt of Vladimir Putin

Vladimir Putin's relationship with the Wagner group is mercenary and contractual. The Russian regime no longer has communism, so it doesn't have this very strong sort of party or gun structure. There is a lot of disenchantment within the ranks of the regular Russian army. Progosing's revolt created opportunity for potential mass defection of the regime's regular forces. This is what the CCP fears most; any potential Wagner type of crack within the Chinese system is going to be an alternative to the Xi Jinping regime.
