    I’d be shocked if this was true. I would think that would be the first FSB tactic that they would’ve performed. It’s a classic one in movies as well. It’ll be absolutely insane if this is what stopped the coup.

      I mean the dude announced that he was goiyto do a coup before he even started. That doesn’t sound really bright to me
