“This is not a coup” is roughly akin to “I’m not a Nazi” … you’ve brought up something outside daily norms to such an extent that you’re engaging in framing.

I get that. What I’m wondering if there have been any further developments or changes to that. Even hints to the contrary.

If things did escelate or spiral and there was no word as to directions or aspirations I feel like it could be a massive confusing fumble

It doesn’t even really matter what Prigozhin intended at this point. Putin has made it clear he’s treating this as a coup attempt, so Prigozhin has to either pull off a successful coup or die.
