I’m taking a break from mowing for a few minutes. What kind’a deal (?) and with whom? Putin or Wagner?
- Belarus says Wagner chief agrees to halt troop movement
- Prigozhin offered exile in Belarus; troops face no punishment over rebellion
- The deal follows a rapid Wagner advance towards Moscow from Rostov-on-Don
- A long-simmering row between Prigozhin and the Kremlin came to a head
- Earlier, President Vladimir Putin vowed to punish those involved in 'armed mutiny'
- Wagner mercenary force chief Yevgeny Prigozhin will move to Belarus under a deal brokered by Minsk to end an armed mutiny that Prigozhin led against Russia's military leadership, the Kremlin said on Saturday.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko had offered to mediate, with Russian President Vladimir Putin's support, because he had known Prigozhin personally for around 20 years.
The criminal case against Prigozhin which was launched Saturday will be dropped and other Wagner troops won't face punishment for the rebellion, Peskov added.
He said the mutiny would not affect the military's assault plans in Ukraine.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the revolt by Wagner mercenaries had revealed the "chaos" within Russian President Vladimir Putin's regime.
"The world can see that the masters of Russia control nothing. And that means nothing. Simply complete chaos," he said in his nightly video address.
- "In one day, they lost several of their million-plus cities and showed all Russian bandits, mercenaries, oligarchs and anyone else how easy it is to capture Russian cities and, probably, arsenals with weapons," Zelenskyy added.
He said that Putin was "obviously very afraid" and was likely "hiding somewhere and "no longer in Moscow."
He warned that the next round of chaos in Russia would be "even more dangerous."

PS check your settings....you are posting from the future.
I'm wondering if Lukashenko is working with Bedpan and/or the Russian MOD to set them up. Bedpan doesn't strike me as a particularly forgiving type.
