Yea that seems like a great way to really have all the Wagner soldiers turn on Russia. They only stopped last time because the boss said to, if he’s gone there’s no one to stop them
There's also no one to pay them, which is usually fairly important to mercenaries.
I wouldn't bet on that. The business side of Wagner should be intact. It's not like Prigz was hand writing checks to his tens of thousands of employees scattered all over Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, and at least 6 more countries on the African Continent.
Wagner PMC is a business, a big one, and that means administrative staff running the day to day of recruiting, hiring, payroll, purchasing, and logistics. Those people weren't on that plane, or at least not enough of them to make any real difference.
