Prigozhin was buried by friends in St. Petersburg, where Putin is not welcome perhaps… his grave is probably going to be a holy site for a lot of angry young Russians…

      So yeah, there are an unknown number of Russians who are used to seeing Prigozhin as Putin’s right hand, don’t think Putin killed him and actually accept the Kremlin denials, and are now honestly confused as to why Putin is declining to attend the funeral of a national hero.

      that confusion is going to get worse as the conflict continues to get closer to home for them
