It's kinda weak to off him like that, for a show of force against insubordination they should just have arrested him and shot him. Now it just looks like the government was too scared to do either a trial or a fast summary execution as they just let him stroll around doing mercenary poo poo for a few weeks and then kill him off anyway.

Oh, and Lars von Trier is now in hot water for writing "Russian Lives Matter Also" on Instagram.

Edit: Forgot to mention, some woman showed up with a Russian flag at Zelenskyy's speech in front of parliament, but was told by police she wouldn't be allowed to cause a disturbance by shouting. Freest of speech.

Burning Qurans is still fine though because of the sanctity of freedom of speech right?

Is Wagner owned entirely by him? Does it just go up for auction now or something, how do you even transfer ownership of a mercenary group like that?

wasn't the concession to transfer things to the russian military after the "coup" attempt?

IIRC, Wagner was being formally integrated under the Russian MoD after the coup. Prigozhin was still in command, but he didn't own it any more.

well if they had just blown him up when he was having his little tantrum they probably would've had to kill a bunch of other mercenaries too which would be demoralizing and a waste of ammo
