 Merry #Caturday to all #CatsOfMastodon and to the listeners of #TheGlobalJigsaw 
The boss lady is bringing you today a light weekend listen - a special edition on one of your fave topics - the #WagnerPMC  . What next for the notorious group after the plane crash that wiped out its leadership? Will there be #wagner 2.0? As you can see on her face, the boss lady learned a lot while working on this episode:

 'the #Syrian Government has given the fighters an ultimatum to incorporate themselves into  the Russian army in #Syria or to disarm and leave by Oct.

Finding a successor amenable to the #Kremlin and also acceptable to the government In #Mali and #CAR might prove to be very tricky

#Wagner and #Prigozhin have not been mentioned on #Russian state tv since the start of September' more on #TheGlobalJigsaw:

 @348f4b7b Listened to this one on the morning dog walk and it was _excellent_. A great insight into how things are portrayed inside and outside Russia. 
 @348f4b7b Boss lady was looking very wise. I think that after listening, along with her, I maybe have a better understanding of what may happen. Listening to people with deep knowledge of myriad areas allows one to see the threads and get a better chance of knowing the form of the web. So I think the gray guy is taking over and Wagner is done, except as you said maybe not in CAR.
