Russian forces are passively letting Prigozhin forces move forward or offering little resistance and some are joining Wagner. None of us know what is going to happen, including the main players. My only hope is that they choke off the supplies to the troops in Ukraine and thus they all retreat out of Ukraine territory. I don't think Prigozhin cares about that, he and his buddy oligarchs want their high living back.
