Well most of that was before invading Crimea and Ukraine.Obviously opinions change when you become the modern day Hitler.
Apparently he resigned from the military right before the Special Military Operation but then was called up again as part of the reserves.
Keeping the "special" in Special Military Operation since February 24, 2022.
Sucks to be Oleg.
The word "paranoia" would usually to refer to irrational fear. In Putin's case however his paranoia seems entirely rational. There must be millions who would like to see him dead, and hundreds willing to pull the trigger. I don't know whether in English we have a proper word for that kind of self-created, rational paranoia.

Prigozhin met Putin after putsch

The Wagner mercenary leader Yevgeny Prigozhin met Russian President Vladimir Putin in the Kremlin days after the former led a failed mutiny against the latter. The BBC’s Russia correspondent noted that Putin accused Wagner of “treachery,” that Russian pilots were killed, and that Russia’s state media is still working to discredit Prigozhin — highlighting his “criminal past” — suggesting that the meeting “was no ‘kiss and make up.’” Yet Prigozhin remains free. What Prigozhin has over Putin is unclear. Perhaps unrelatedly, Reuters reported that during the mutiny, Wagner troops drove to a nuclear weapons base in Russia, although it seems none of the small nuclear weapons apparently stored there were taken.

Bad day at the beach for Ruskie command.
I bet that there were at a least few bottles of vodka there at the command quarters. Could happen, eh?
