Dear subscribers and guests of the channel! During an operational meeting with the permanent members of the #Russian Security Council, which was held on Friday via video call, Russian President Vladimir #Putin refused to discuss the topic of the second stage of mobilization.
1/13
He stated that no one canceled the mobilization and confirmed that its continuation "is a settled issue."
During the closed part of the narrow-format meeting, the President turned out to be more talkative, making several "progressive" statements.
2/13
#Putin said it was necessary to implement the idea of a quick and effective "special operation" against a neighboring country, where victory can be practically "guaranteed." The President considers #Georgia to be such a country.
3/13
#Putin is confident that if an agreement is reached with a part of the current leadership of #Georgia, it is possible to provoke a conflict, implement a winning scenario, and help that part of the pro-Russian leadership of Georgia get rid of "undesirable elements" in power.
4/13
At the same time, the President of #Russia is going to solve the "#Armenian issue". However, he did not specify how. Ready-made scenarios for the special operation have been on the President's table since last fall.
5/13
Now, #Putin has given the order to adapt them to today's realities and submit them to him by February 1.
Over the weekend, Putin held a series of consultations with people from his inner circle.
6/13
The topic for discussion was "peace proposals" transmitted through informal channels by the leadership of an influential intermediary country to the President. The essence of the proposals is that #Putin is offered to withdraw troops to the borders on February 23, 2022.

Further, during the seven-year transitional period of the transfer of #Crimea to #Ukraine. The "Luhansk & Donetsk People's Republics" in the territories as of February 23, 2022, remain under the control of Russia for seven to ten years without formal recognition...

compensation to #Ukraine are also in the proposals. To "save face", #Putin was offered, after the withdrawal of troops to the borders as of the evening of February 23, 2022, a one-year delay with the implementation of other decisions.
10/13
It is assumed that the President of #Russia will be able to declare this a "victory", which will allow him or his "successor" to be elected President no later than March 2024. At the same time, #Ukraine is guaranteed accession to #NATO in the summer of 2024.
11/13
Seven guarantor countries are ready to act as mediators. The #Ukrainian side has not yet received these proposals. The mediators are waiting for a response from #Putin.
12/13
The President of #Russia was warned that in the event of a refusal, #Ukraine would be supplied with all the necessary weapons to defeat Russian troops throughout Ukraine to return to the borders as of December 1991. #Putin thinks.

Grim Humor and Serious Choices: #Putin's Weekend Consultations
Over the weekend, Putin held an online meeting with the military bloc and had several consultations with the security bloc. During communication with the military, Putin was briefed on the situation at the front. 1/5
They said that the counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine had bogged down, and there was nothing to worry about. After listening to the report, the president asked only one, apparently, rhetorical question: "Why the hell are you f**king my brains?" 2/5
And without receiving any intelligible answer, he closed the meeting. The leadership of the security bloc held consultations with the president on the topic of "the funeral of the leadership of PMC #Wagner." But on Sunday evening, #Putin did not give the go-ahead to... 3/5

that he was alive and capable. There is practically no information about this meeting in the official #Kremlin resources, and the video and photos are so small that you can’t really see anything on them. Nevertheless, the president was prepared for this event for... 2/6
more than three hours. Washing, combing, putting on make-up, dressing and putting on shoes for #Putin takes more and more time. The president feels unwell, and the medicines help little, and it is necessary to give him a short rest during all the preparatory procedures. 3/6
"Death" of #Prigozhin Distracted People From Important Events
The information fuss around the destroyed aircraft with the Wagner leadership diverted attention from several events. Nevertheless, these are important for understanding the overall picture of what is happening. 1/5
The "death" of Yevgeny #Prigozhin became news number one and successfully ousted the topic of #Putin's double blunders from the information space. This allowed the understudy to recover and continue to portray Putin, taking part in numerous meetings and events. 2/5
The double managed to meet and bless the work and deeds of the acting leader of the "Luhansk People's Republic", Pasechnik, the acting leader of the Zaporizhzhia region, Balitsky, the acting leader of the Kherson region, Saldo, and the acting leader of... 3/5
In an interesting way, the preparatory stage for the once long-awaited transit begins. The destruction of the aircraft in which Yevgeny Prigozhin and Dmitry #Utkin were by the Russian air defence system over the territory of...

#Russia puts an end to the case of #Prigozhin's rebellion and the existence of the #Wagner PMC. Under the leadership of the Secretary of the Security Council of Russia, #Patrushev, an operation to destroy Prigozhin and the entire leadership of the Wagner was developed.
2/12
The liquidation of #Prigozhin and #Utkin is the main but not the final stage of this operation. According to the plan, all the commanders of the #Wagner PMC who supported the rebellion should be destroyed. We already talked about this almost immediately after the rebellion.
