Noway,I see Putin with 3 options;
1) Crush wagner mercilessly and continue down into path of anarchy. Could lead to civil war
2) Call for a ceasefire between wagner and buy time still he will go down.
3) Play down the wagner threat,still buys him time but will weaken him as no.2 above.
I think Wagner are taking a script off the Sudan RSF. bottom line chicken have come home to roost
