Reading his statement, I don't think that is it. This is simply another purge, and I'd be deeply surprised if it weren't ordered and directed by Putin himself. He mightn't be some genius world diplomat, but he certainly understands how to play the Russian people.

The fact that Wagner PMC will return to the frontlines after the cleanup as per the statement, really underlines that.
