That last boost of mine re #Belgorod and #Wagner remains a peculiar situation to my eyes--although we know how the Kremlin is going to portray it, it's ultimately an excuse for the Kremlin to do worse dastardly deeds.

I don't doubt that the Kremlin could use an excuse even if it staged its own excuse. I don't doubt that Zelenskyy knows better than to try something like that himself because of the excuse it hands the Kremlin.
