![]() ![]() So a little history about Tim and I… I started to get involved with Mutiny but had to make a decision to leave for personal reasons. “Sup Tone,” Tim replied as he continue to work on the alley entrance door, to Mutiny. Obviously, prevalent people to Mutiny that both share essential roles… “Hey Tim!” I yelled out the black tinted window of my sedan. ![]() Upon pulling up to the narrow art filled alleyway, to unload K and I’s things I see Tim and Rick. To protect the privacy of others I am going to use anonymous names…. But we have to let go to make room for new beginnings. Those of you who just started following me, Mutiny is the art space I rented my studio out at for 2 years… and I can say I miss it there. This is just the beginning of the biggest work in the world that will be carried out very soon,” Utkin said in Russian.Tonight was Mutiny Artwrx’s Maker’s Market. Prigozhin had said his mutiny was not aimed at toppling Putin but at settling scores with defence minister Sergei Shoigu and chief of the general staff Valery Gerasimov.Īfter Prigozhin’s speech, a man identified as Utkin, then spoke to the men. Wagner helped Russia annex Crimea in 2014, fought Islamic State militants in Syria, operated in the Central African Republic and Mali and took the Ukrainian city of Bakhmut for Russia earlier this year with considerable losses on both sides. Wagner was founded by Prigozhin and Dmitry Utkin, a former special forces officer in Russia’s GRU military intelligence, as a way for Russia to get involved in wars in countries including Syria, Libya and Mali with full deniability. “And perhaps we will return to the SMO (special military operation in Ukraine) at some point when we are sure that we will not be forced to shame ourselves,” Prigozhin said. Prigozhin says in the video that his men should behave well towards the locals and orders them to train the Belarusian army and gather their strength for a “new journey to Africa”. The video also showed Prigozhin receiving a Wagner black flag, decorated with the motto “Blood, honour, Motherland, Courage”, from their camp in southern Russia.īelarus said last week that Wagner fighters were instructing its soldiers at a military range southeast of Minsk. ![]() Russian officials dismiss Western interpretations of the mutiny and say the West should not concern itself with such “scrapes”. Since a deal was struck to end the mutiny, the Kremlin has sought to project calm, with Putin chairing a variety of meetings, meeting crowds in Dagestan and even discussing quantum computing and artificial intelligence. ![]() The video was shot after night had fallen, though it was possible to discern what looked like Prigozhin’s profile and a group of men. It is also unclear what Wagner, which Prigozhin said had 25,000 men, would do next. Since Prigozhin was last seen leaving the Russian city of Rostov on June 24, mystery has surrounded his fate after Putin cast him as a traitor. Putin initially said he would crush the mutiny, comparing it to the wartime turmoil that ushered in the revolutions of 1917, but hours later a deal was clinched to allow Prigozhin and some of his fighters to go to Belarus. Wagner’s failed June 23-24 mutiny has been interpreted by the West as a challenge to president Vladimir Putin’s rule that illustrates the weakness of the 70-year-old Kremlin chief and the strain of the war on the Russian state. ![]()
